巴基斯坦计划将额外的电力用于比特币采矿作为减少浪费能量的一种方式

与其他国家不同，巴基斯坦希望将剩余的权力献给加密矿业开采。

Pakistan is considering legalizing bitcoin mining as a way to use up extra electricity and generate income, the Pakistan Crypto Council said.

巴基斯坦加密委员会说，巴基斯坦正在考虑将比特币开采合法化为消耗额外电力并产生收入的一种方式。

The Ministry of Energy is planning a special electricity tariff for industries like bitcoin mining, hoping to attract investors without needing to give them government funds, the PCC said.

PCC说，能源部正在计划针对比特币采矿等行业的特殊电力关税，希望吸引投资者而无需向他们提供政府资金。

Miners prefer cheap electricity, which Pakistan has a surplus of, so the government is trying to bridge this gap and solve a long-standing issue in the power sector, economically.

矿工更喜欢廉价的电力，巴基斯坦的盈余是造成的，因此政府正试图弥合这一差距，并在经济上解决了电力部门的长期问题。

This idea was discussed at length during a key meeting between Power Minister Awais Leghari and Bilal Bin Saqib, the CEO of the newly formed PCC. They explored how Pakistan could become a global hub for cryptocurrency mining.

在电力部长Awais Leghari和新成立的PCC首席执行官Bilal Bin Saqib之间的重要会议上，讨论了这个想法。他们探索了巴基斯坦如何成为加密货币采矿的全球枢纽。

This meeting was later followed up on by an even bigger gathering, chaired by Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb and attended by top officials, including the State Bank Governor and various regulators. The aim was to decide whether or not Pakistan should legalize and encourage crypto mining as part of its economic strategy.

这次会议后来进行了一次更大的聚会，由财政部长穆罕默德·奥兰奇布（Muhammad Aurangzeb）主持，并由包括州银行州长和各种监管机构在内的高级官员参加。目的是决定巴基斯坦是否应合法化并鼓励加密矿山作为其经济战略的一部分。

However, while several countries have tried and failed to manage the huge electricity demand from bitcoin miners, Pakistan’s plan could work.

但是，尽管有几个国家已经尝试并且未能管理比特币矿工的巨大电力需求，但巴基斯坦的计划可以奏效。

Reports claim that bitcoin miners spend up to 70% of their earnings on electricity. This drove China to ban crypto mining due to environmental concerns, while Kazakhstan initially welcomed it before imposing higher taxes. Iran, on the other hand, offered discounted rates but often suspended mining during periods of peak electricity demand.

报告称，比特币矿工在电力上的收入最多花费了70％。由于环境问题，这驱使中国禁止加密开采，而哈萨克斯坦最初对此表示欢迎，然后征收更高的税款。另一方面，伊朗提供了折扣价，但在电力高峰时期经常暂停采矿。

But Pakistan is planning to take a different approach. Instead of overloading the national grid with extra demand, the country aims to create a stable and competitive energy supply specifically dedicated to crypto mining. This move could attract global blockchain-based data centers to set up shop in Pakistan.

但是巴基斯坦正计划采取不同的方法。该国旨在创建专门用于加密矿业的稳定且竞争性的能源供应，而不是将国家电网超载，而是额外的需求。此举可能会吸引基于全球区块链的数据中心在巴基斯坦开设商店。

If Pakistan manages to welcome mining companies into the country, it could generate a new revenue stream and use its excess power more efficiently.

如果巴基斯坦设法欢迎矿业公司进入该国，它可以产生新的收入来源，并更有效地利用其超额电力。

During the meeting, Bilal Bin Saqib also presented a plan for using Pakistan’s extra energy for bitcoin mining while also making clear rules for the industry. He said that the country should make a policy that fits its own needs and benefits its people.

在会议期间，比拉尔·本·萨基布（Bilal Bin Saqib）还提出了一项计划，以使用巴基斯坦的额外能量进行比特币采矿，同时还为该行业制定了明确的规则。他说，该国应制定适合自己需求并受益的政策。

"We discussed the pressing matter of Pakistan's surplus energy and how it can be used to generate revenue for the nation," said the PCC in a statement.

PCC在一份声明中说：“我们讨论了巴基斯坦盈余能源的紧迫问题，以及如何将其用于为国家产生收入。”

"The council presented a proposal for legalizing and regulating bitcoin mining within the country, presenting a unique opportunity to transform a socio-economic challenge into a significant economic driver."

“理事会提出了一项提议，以使该国境内的比特币采矿合法化，并提供了将社会经济挑战转变为重要经济驱动力的独特机会。”

However, while the plan holds great promise, its success depends largely on swift and efficient execution.

但是，尽管该计划具有巨大的希望，但其成功在很大程度上取决于迅速有效的执行。

The government will need to move quickly to provide regulatory clarity, ensure compliance with global financial and anti-money laundering (AML) regulations, and guarantee a stable and competitive energy supply to attract these companies to set up shop in Pakistan.

政府将需要迅速采取行动，以提供法规清晰度，确保遵守全球金融和反洗钱（AML）法规，并保证稳定且竞争性的能源供应，以吸引这些公司在巴基斯坦开设商店。
