堪萨斯州参议员提议退休资金的比特币暴露

该法案题为《参议院第34号法案》，旨在授权堪萨斯州公共雇员退休系统（KPER）投资于比特币（BTC）交易所交易基金（ETF）产品的公共雇员退休基金的10％。

A bill has been introduced in Kansas that would allocate a portion of public employee retirement funds to Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded fund (ETF) products.

堪萨斯州已提出了一项法案，该法案将把部分公共雇员退休资金分配给比特币（BTC）交易所交易基金（ETF）产品。

The bill, designated as Senate Bill 34, proposes permitting the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System (KPERS) to invest up to 10% of public employee retirement funds in Bitcoin ETFs. If passed, the legislation would establish a KPERS board of trustees to oversee the investments in BTC ETFs.

该法案被指定为参议院第34号法案，建议允许堪萨斯州公共雇员退休系统（KPER）投资于比特币ETF的公共雇员退休资金的10％。如果通过，立法将建立KPER董事会来监督BTC ETF的投资。

Crucially, the bill specifies that the KPERS board of trustees may allocate funds to Bitcoin ETF products that are issued exclusively by Kansas-based investment firms. It also stipulates that if the value of BTC ETFs exceeds 10% of the retirement fund’s portfolio, the board is not required to sell unless it is in the best interest of the fund’s beneficiaries.

该法案至关重要的是，该法案规定，KPERS董事会可以将资金分配给堪萨斯州投资公司仅发行的比特币ETF产品。它还规定，如果BTC ETF的价值超过退休基金投资组合的10％，则不需要出售董事会，除非它符合该基金受益人的最大利益。

Furthermore, the legislation mandates the KPERS board of trustees to conduct an annual review of the investment program. The findings from this review must then be presented to the governor for oversight and evaluation.

此外，立法要求KPERS董事会对投资计划进行年度审查。然后，这项审查的发现必须提交给州长进行监督和评估。

While the bill represents a significant step toward Bitcoin’s mainstream acceptance as a store of value, it must undergo a rigorous legislative process before becoming law. Senate Bill 34 was referred to the Committee on Financial Institutions and Insurance on January 17 and must clear four rounds of approval before being sent to the Kansas House of Representatives.

虽然该法案代表了朝着比特币作为价值存储的主流认可迈出的重要一步，但在成为法律之前，它必须经历严格的立法程序。参议院第34号法案于1月17日被转交给金融机构和保险委员会，必须批准四轮批准，然后再送往堪萨斯州众议院。

At the House of Representatives, the bill would go through a similar legislative process before reaching the governor’s desk for final approval or veto. If vetoed, the legislation would return to the state legislature, where it would need a two-thirds majority vote in both chambers to override the veto and become law.

在众议院，该法案将通过类似的立法程序，然后到达州长的办公桌以获得最终批准或否决。如果否决，该立法将返回州立法机关，在这两个会议厅中需要三分之二的多数投票才能覆盖否决权并成为法律。

Senator Bowser’s proposal highlights a significant shift in Kansas’ approach to cryptocurrencies. In 2023, the state’s House of Representatives had introduced a bill that restricted political crypto donations to $100 and mandated the immediate conversion of such donations into USD, prohibiting the holding or spending of cryptocurrency.

鲍泽参议员的提议强调了堪萨斯州的加密货币方法发生了重大转变。 2023年，该州的众议院提出了一项法案，该法案将政治加密捐赠限制在100美元中，并要求将这种捐款立即转换为美元，禁止持有或支出加密货币。
