肯塔基州现在正式成为美国最友好的州最友好的州

Kentucky has become the latest U.S. state to enact legislation in support of Bitcoin, Governor Andy Beshear signing House Bill 701, also known as the Bitcoin Rights bill, on March 24.

肯塔基州已于3月24日颁布了支持比特币，州长安迪·贝什（Andy Beshear）第701号法案（也称为比特币权利法案）的最新美国国家。

The legislation, which passed the Kentucky House in a 91-0 vote on February 28 and the Senate by a vote of 37-0 on March 13, aims to safeguard users, miners, and blockchain participants of Bitcoin. It protects against discriminatory control of digital asset holders, ensuring they can keep Bitcoin in self-custody, operate blockchain nodes, and make transactions freely.

该立法在2月28日以91票对0票，参议院以37-0的投票在3月13日以37-0的投票通过，旨在维护比特币的用户，矿工和区块链参与者。它可以防止对数字资产持有人的歧视性控制，以确保他们可以将比特币保持在自我casustody中，操作区块链节点并自由进行交易。

HB 701 ensures that citizens have the right to hold and pass on Bitcoin through their wallets, ultimately aiming to guarantee the fundamental right to own electronic money. It also prevents local authorities from applying discrimination regulations against Bitcoin mining activities unjustly. The bill ensures that staking and mining services will not be defined as securities, providing legal certainty for businesses engaging in these activities within the state.

HB 701确保公民有权通过钱包持有和传递比特币，最终旨在确保拥有电子资金的基本权利。它还防止地方当局不公正地应用歧视法规对比特币采矿活动。该法案可确保将积分和采矿服务定义为证券，从而为从事这些活动的企业提供法律确定性。

The second significant provision of the bill exempts staking participants and blockchain node operators from money transmitter laws in Kentucky. This change lowers regulatory hurdles for businesses and individuals participating in blockchain activity.

该法案的第二个重要规定豁免了肯塔基州的货币发射机法律，将参与者和区块链节点运营商免除。这种变化降低了参加区块链活动的企业和个人的监管障碍。

The bill's passage follows a period of heated debate among lawmakers, particularly regarding the potential risks of investing state funds in volatile cryptocurrencies. Despite this opposition, the bill's swift passage through both chambers and its subsequent signing by the governor highlight the state's interest in blockchain technology and financial modernization.

该法案的通过是在立法者之间进行激烈辩论之后的，特别是关于在波动加密货币上投资州资金的潜在风险。尽管有这种反对，但该法案迅速通过了钱伯斯及其随后的州长签署，强调了该州对区块链技术和金融现代化的兴趣。

The move by the state also comes as several U.S. states are considering similar Bitcoin-friendly policies. Oklahoma and Arizona are working on legislation that would allow state funds to be invested in Bitcoin, with Oklahoma recently passing such a bill. At the federal level, President-elect Donald Trump and Senator Cynthia Lummis have also supported Bitcoin inclusion in federal financial policy.

国家的举动也是如此，因为美国几个州正在考虑采用类似的比特币友好政策。俄克拉荷马州和亚利桑那州正在制定立法，这将允许州资金投资于比特币，而俄克拉荷马州最近通过了这样的法案。在联邦一级，当选总统唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）和参议员辛西娅·卢米斯（Cynthia Lummis）也支持比特币纳入联邦金融政策。

As HB 701 comes into effect, it will serve as a bulwark against excessive regulation and encourage innovation within Kentucky's developing blockchain sector. However, critics of the bill express concerns over the inherent volatility and risk of investments in digital currencies, especially given the pending federal regulation in the cryptocurrency domain.

随着HB 701生效，它将成为反对过度监管的堡垒，并鼓励肯塔基州发展中的区块链领域的创新。但是，对该法案的批评者对数字货币的固有波动和投资风险表示关注，尤其是考虑到加密货币领域的联邦法规未决的监管。

Despite this dissent, Kentucky's bold move is part of a broader trend toward greater Bitcoin use and protection within state financial markets. While the state legislature session has ended, HB 376, which would create a state-sponsored crypto reserve, is still pending a vote in the House after passing the Senate.

尽管存在这种异议，但肯塔基州的大胆举动是朝着国家金融市场中更大比特币使用和保护的更广泛趋势的一部分。尽管州议会会议结束了，但HB 376（将创建国家赞助的加密储备储备）在通过参议院后仍在众议院投票。

If passed, it would place Kentucky among the first to count Bitcoin as a treasury asset, allowing the State Investment Commission to invest in Bitcoin and other digital assets with a market capitalization of over $750 billion, up to 10% of surplus funds.

如果通过，它将将肯塔基州列为第一个将比特币视为财政资产的人，从而使国家投资委员会能够投资于比特币和其他数字资产，市值超过7500亿美元，占盈余资金的10％。
