El Salvador删除了比特币的法定招标身份，这是对Bukele加密省的野心的打击

比特币从未被大多数萨尔瓦多人使用，它的现代城市从未建造过，现在它将不再在萨尔瓦多（El Salvador）进行法定招标

El Salvador’s Congress approved a confusing reform to the Bitcoin Law on Wednesday, at the request of the Bukele government, which had no other option to receive the $1.4 billion credit agreed in December with the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

埃尔萨尔瓦多国会在周三应布克勒政府的要求批准了对比特币法的混乱改革，该法律没有其他选择可以在12月与国际货币基金组织（IMF）达成协议的14亿美元信贷。

The reform eliminates the word “currency” when referring to bitcoin, but says it is “legal tender.” Despite the lack of clarity, it lifts, as required by the IMF, the obligation to accept it in transactions or debt payments, a key condition for it to be “legal tender,” according to economic analysts.

该改革在指比特币时消除了“货币”一词，但说这是“法定货币”。经济分析师表示，尽管缺乏清晰度，但它仍按照国际货币基金组织的要求提高了接受交易或债务付款的义务，这是它是“法定货币”的关键条件。

With the change, “if someone owes you money and wants to pay you in bitcoin, you can refuse to be paid in bitcoin, but you cannot refuse if it’s legal tender,” economist Carlos Acevedo explained.

随着变化，“如果有人欠您的钱，想用比特币付款，您可以拒绝用比特币付款，但是如果法定招标是法定招标，您将无法拒绝。”

The use of bitcoin in El Salvador’s dollarized economy, according to the new rule, will be optional and will be at the discretion of the private sector to accept cryptocurrency payments for goods and services.

根据新规则，在萨尔瓦多的美元经济中使用比特币将是可选的，并将由私营部门酌情接受以接受商品和服务的加密货币支付。

Businesses are no longer required to convert dollar prices into this cryptocurrency.

不再需要企业将美元价格转换为这种加密货币。

“Bitcoin no longer has that force of legal tender. That’s how it should have always remained, but the government wanted to force it and it didn’t work,” economist Rafael Lemus said.

“比特币不再具有法定招标的力量。经济学家拉斐尔·莱姆斯（Rafael Lemus）说：“这就是应该一直保持的方式，但政府想强迫它。”经济学家Rafael Lemus说。

The Bitcoin Law reform will take effect 90 days after it’s published in the Official Gazette, which could happen in the coming days.

比特币法律改革将在官方宪报上发表后90天生效，这可能会在未来几天发生。

For Acevedo, former president of the former Central Bank, “it makes no sense” to have left in the reformed law that it is “legal tender.”

对于前中央银行前总统阿塞维多（Acevedo）来说，在改革法律中留下“法定招标”的“毫无意义”。

“It’s a monstrosity that’s not understood and that should be corrected and made clear that bitcoin is no longer legal tender,” the economist argues.

这位经济学家认为：“这是一种怪兽，不理解，应该纠正并明确表明比特币不再是合法招标。”

But even being so, Salvadorans, with the exception of a few, never embraced Bukele’s initiative, who enjoys enormous popularity for his war against gangs, which dropped homicides to historic lows in El Salvador.

但是，即使如此，萨尔瓦多人，除了少数人外，从未接受过伯克利的倡议，他们因对阵帮派的战争而受到巨大欢迎，后者将凶杀案丢给了萨尔瓦多的历史性低点。

A recent survey by the Central American University (UCA) revealed that 92% of Salvadorans did not use bitcoin in their transactions in 2024.

中美洲大学（UCA）最近进行的一项调查显示，2024年，有92％的萨尔瓦多人在交易中没有使用比特币。

“I used it and didn’t like it… Very complicated and risky. This is not for an employee who barely gets by on their salary,” Juana Henríquez, a 55-year-old nurse, said, saying she had tried to make some profit and instead lost money.

“我使用了它，不喜欢它……非常复杂和风险。这不适合几乎没有薪水的雇员。

Bukele also failed to achieve his project, which he announced with fireworks, to create Bitcoin City, a high-tech city that would be the capital of bitcoiners in the country and would take energy for mining from a volcano in Conchagua, about 200 km from Salvador.

布克勒还未能实现自己的项目，他在烟火中宣布了该项目，以创建比特币城市，这是一个高科技城市，将成为该国的比特币的首都，并将从Conchagua的一座火山挖矿，距离约200公里萨尔瓦多。

Berlin, a city 110 km east of San Salvador, and El Zonte beach (southwest) are two areas that concentrate bitcoiners, but many are foreign residents or tourists.

柏林是圣萨尔瓦多以东110公里的城市，西南地区的埃尔·佐特海滩（El Zonte Beach）是两个集中比特币的地区，但许多地区是外国居民或游客。

Bitcoin’s biggest promoter in the country, Bukele, has not yet referred to the legal reform.

比特币在该国最大的发起人布克利尚未提及法律改革。

But officials ensure that the government will continue betting on this cryptocurrency, whose price currently exceeds $100,000.

但是官员们确保政府将继续押注这种加密货币，该加密货币目前超过100,000美元。

El Salvador’s ambassador to the United States, Milena Mayorga, told journalists Thursday, during a bitcoin event in San Salvador, that the law reforms should be seen as an adaptation “to the circumstances.”

萨尔瓦多驻美国大使米尔娜·梅奥尔加（Milena Mayorga）周四在圣萨尔瓦多的一场比特币活动中对记者说，法律改革应被视为“对情况”的适应。

The government, she assured, will continue buying bitcoin and having reserves in this cryptocurrency.

她保证，政府将继续购买比特币并在这种加密货币中储备。

According to the National Bitcoin Office, El Salvador has 6,050 bitcoins worth $634.8 million.

根据国家比特币办公室的数据，埃尔·萨尔瓦多拥有6,050个比特币，价值6.348亿美元。

“President Bukele continues buying bitcoin, we have a Bitcoin Office, we have the Bitcoin Law, bitcoin can be used in El Salvador. It hasn’t been an easy road,” Mayorga summarized.

“布克利总统继续购买比特币，我们有一个比特币办公室，我们有比特币法，可以在萨尔瓦多使用比特币。这并不是一条容易的道路。” Mayorga总结道。

For Lemus, because “the government has its bitcoin reserve and will buy more” it is necessary “to have transparency, for citizens to know how public funds are being invested.”

对于Lemus来说，因为“政府拥有其比特币储备并将购买更多”，因此必须“具有透明度，让公民知道如何投资公共资金”。

Bukele recently said he is convinced that with Donald Trump – whom he supports – in the White House there will be “an exponential revaluation” of the cryptocurrency. He frequently posts price increases on his social networks. For now, he remains silent.

布克勒最近表示，他坚信，与他支持的唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）在白宫，将对加密货币进行“指数重估”。他经常在社交网络上发布价格上涨。就目前而言，他保持沉默。
