比特币储备法案在蒙大拿州被击败

蒙大拿州的立法机关驳回了众议院第429号法案，试图授权国家对比特币，稳定金属和贵金属的投资。

Montana lawmakers have rejected a bill that would have authorized the state to invest in Bitcoin, stablecoins, and precious metals.

蒙大拿州议员拒绝了一项法案，该法案将授权该州投资比特币，稳定金属和贵金属。

The bill, House Bill 429, was voted down 41-59 on Monday.

该法案，众议院第429号法案，周一以41-59投票。

Lawmakers who opposed the bill said they were concerned about the potential risks of using taxpayers’ funds to make investments in risky assets.

反对该法案的立法者说，他们担心使用纳税人资金对风险资产进行投资的潜在风险。

"We have a responsibility to make sure that we get the maximum return on the taxpayers’ dollar, rather than letting it sit," Demming said. "This bill would allow us to do just that."

德明说：“我们有责任确保我们获得纳税人的美元的最大回报，而不是让它坐下。” “该法案将使我们能够做到这一点。”

Fitzpatrick also supported the bill, saying the state had excess funds that could be put to better use.

菲茨帕特里克（Fitzpatrick）还支持该法案，称该州的资金超额资金可以更好地利用。

"We have a surplus of funds that we can utilize to better serve the people of Montana," Fitzpatrick said.

菲茨帕特里克说：“我们有一大批资金可以用来更好地为蒙大拿州人民服务。”

But other lawmakers, like Representative Steven Kelly, argued that protecting public funds from excessive risk was the priority.

但是，像代表史蒂文·凯利（Steven Kelly）这样的其他立法者认为，保护公共资金免受过度风险是优先事项。

"We have to protect the taxpayers’ dollars from any undue risk," Kelly said.

凯利说：“我们必须保护纳税人的美元免受任何不当风险。”

Critics of the bill also said that Bitcoin and other virtual currencies were too risky for state reserves.

该法案的批评者还说，比特币和其他虚拟货币对于国家储备而言太冒险了。

"I think it's a foolhardy way to think about taxpayer dollars," said Representative Jessica Karjala.

代表杰西卡·卡哈拉（Jessica Karjala）说：“我认为这是考虑纳税人美元的一种愚蠢方式。”

Lawmakers also proposed an alternative amendment to the bill that would have authorized the state to use interest from the American Rescue Plan Act to finance the bill.

议员们还提出了对该法案的替代修正案，该修正案将授权该州利用《美国救援计划法》中的利息为该法案提供资金。

But the amendment also failed to secure enough votes.

但是该修正案也未能获得足够的选票。

The bill was largely divided on party lines, with the majority of Republicans voting in favor of it and all Democrats voting against it.

该法案在很大程度上在党派分歧，大多数共和党人投票支持该法案，所有民主党人都投票反对。

Montana is now part of a growing number of states that have rejected identical cryptocurrency reserve bills, including Wyoming, North Dakota, and Pennsylvania.

蒙大拿州现在是越来越多的州的一部分，这些州拒绝了相同的加密货币预备账单，包括怀俄明州，北达科他州和宾夕法尼亚州。

However, 19 other U.S. states are still waiting to review the crypto-related laws, with Arizona and Utah ahead of the curve as their respective bills move through Senate debates.

但是，其他19个州仍在等待审查与加密相关的法律，随着他们各自的法案在参议院的辩论中进行，亚利桑那州和犹他州领先于曲线。

Montana's failed bill serves as a testament to the current debate across the nation on whether government investment plans ought to include space for digital assets.

蒙大拿州的失败法案证明了全国当前关于政府投资计划是否应该包括数字资产空间的辩论。

While Montana's ruling effectively puts HB 429 on the back burner, the issue of Bitcoin reserves is far from going away. Legislators who favor digital currency investments will likely introduce similar legislation during subsequent sessions. For the present, Montana's dismissal indicates that volatility and regulatory concerns still have positives in the views of many state leaders.

尽管蒙大拿州的裁决有效地将HB 429放在了后燃烧器上，但比特币储备的问题远未消失。支持数字货币投资的立法者可能会在随后的会议期间引入类似的立法。目前，蒙大拿州的解雇表明，波动和监管问题仍然对许多州领导人的看法仍然有利。
