不丹已成為第一個在國家一級引入旅遊業的加密貨幣支付的國家，與Kuensel Bank的數字子公司Binance Pay和DK Bank合作，啟動了該計劃。

東南亞國家以其獨特的建築和在早期佛教研究中的作用而聞名，現在通過新的國家級系統接受了旅遊業的加密貨幣。

The initiative permits travelers with Binance accounts to pay for nearly every part of their journey using crypto, including airline tickets, visa fees, hotel stays, monument entry, tour guides, and even “fresh fruit from roadside stalls,” according to a Wednesday announcement by the crypto exchange.

Crypto Exchange的周三宣布，該計劃允許擁有Binance帳戶的旅行者幾乎使用加密貨幣來支付其旅程的幾乎每個部分，包括航空公司票，簽證費，酒店住宿，紀念碑，導遊，導遊，甚至是“從路邊攤位上的新鮮水果”。

Binance says more than 100 local merchants have already been onboarded, though it didn’t name specific businesses accepting crypto.

Binance表示，儘管沒有命名接受加密貨幣的特定業務，但已經有100多家當地商人已經被登上了。

Visitors can pay by scanning dynamic or static QR codes via the Binance app, with support for over 100 cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin (BTC) and USD Coin (USDC). While tourists pay in crypto, merchants still receive in local currency, as all transactions are settled through DK Bank, which is licensed by the Royal Monetary Authority of Bhutan.

訪問者可以通過Binance應用程序掃描動態或靜態QR碼來付款，並支持100多個加密貨幣（包括比特幣（BTC）和USD Coin（USDC））。雖然遊客向加密貨幣付款，但商人仍然以當地貨幣收到，因為所有交易都是通過不丹皇家貨幣當局許可的DK銀行進行的。

“We are incredibly excited to be launching this groundbreaking initiative with DK Bank and Binance Pay,” said Richard Teng, CEO of Binance Southeast Asia.

4月中旬，不丹總理認為托比·托布蓋（Tshering Tobgay）對國家支持的比特幣採礦是“許多人做出和賺取數十億美元的簡單戰略選擇”，並補充說“政府應該這樣做”。
