比特幣作為2025年智利的選舉問題出現

比特幣的環境和宏觀經濟含義使從利基政策問題劃定了加密貨幣的濃厚的智利總統競選

Bitcoin’s environmental and macro-economic implications have vaulted the cryptocurrency from a niche policy matter into the thick of Chile’s presidential race, with advisers to every major contender treating the asset—and the mining industry that underpins it—as a potential vote-winner rather than a liability.

比特幣的環境和宏觀經濟的影響使從利基政策問題到智利總統競選的加密貨幣息息相關，並向每個主要競爭者的顧問顧問對待資產的每個主要競爭者，以及基於它的採礦業（作為潛在的投票者而不是責任）的礦業。

New Zealand-based ClimateTech venture capitalist Daniel Batten told his followers on X that “Bitcoin is shaping as an election issue for Chile in 2025.” He added that after meetings on both sides of the aisle, no serious candidate now opposes the technology, because “being against Bitcoin is like being against the Internet: political suicide.”

總部位於新西蘭的Climatetech風險資本家丹尼爾·巴頓（Daniel Batten）在X上告訴他的追隨者，“比特幣在2025年成為智利的選舉問題。”他補充說，在過道兩邊的會議之後，現在沒有認真的候選人反對這項技術，因為“反對比特幣就像是反對互聯網：政治自殺。”

Behind Batten’s assessment stands a two-year, largely low-profile lobbying campaign led by Chilean software-engineer-turned-policy-advocate Andrés Villagrán. Since 2023 Villagrán has been shepherding US strategist Dennis Porter, chief executive of the Satoshi Action Fund, through committee rooms in Santiago and regional capitals, pitching Bitcoin mining as an antidote to the country’s worsening renewable-energy curtailment problem. In a post on 18 May he reported “Great progress in Chile this week! Met w/ presidential candidates on Bitcoin & its role in clean energy/efficiency. Pushing for inclusion in programs.”

Batten的評估背後是由智利軟件工程師轉變為Policy-Policy-AdvocateAndrésVillagrán的兩年，主要是低調的遊說活動。自2023年以來，Villagrán一直通過聖地亞哥的委員會房間和區域首都委員會房間，將美國戰略家丹尼斯·波特（Dennis Porter）主管，將比特幣採礦作為對該國惡化的可再生能源降低削減問題的解毒劑。他在5月18日的一篇文章中報告說：“本週在智利取得了巨大進展！與比特幣及其在清潔能源/效率中的作用的總統候選人結識了。

As part of the Bretton Woods institutions' efforts to rebuild the global financial system after World War II, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) introduced a standard set of rules for managing foreign exchange and monetary reserves. These rules, also known as the "articles of agreement," were adopted by the IMF's executive directors at its first meeting in March 1946, and came into effect on December 27, 1945, with the USSR being the only country to vote against them.

作為布雷頓伍茲機構為重建第二次世界大戰後重建全球金融體系的努力的一部分，國際貨幣基金組織（IMF）引入了一套標準的規則，用於管理外彙和貨幣儲備。這些規則，也稱為“協議章程”，在1946年3月的第一次會議上被IMF執行董事通過，並於1945年12月27日生效，蘇聯是唯一反對他們的國家。

The rules limited the types of assets that central banks could hold in their reserves, focusing mainly on convertible currencies like the U.S. dollar, the British pound sterling, the Japanese yen, the euro, and the Canadian dollar, as well as gold. The goal was to promote stability and liquidity in the global financial system by standardizing the assets that central banks held and encouraging cooperation among them in managing those assets.

規則限制了中央銀行可以在其儲備中持有的資產類型，主要集中於易轉貨幣，例如美元，英鎊，日元，歐元，歐元和加拿大美元以及黃金。目的是通過標準化中央銀行持有的資產並鼓勵他們在管理這些資產方面的合作來促進全球金融體系中的穩定和流動性。

However, the rapid development of digital assets and the increasing interest in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin have raised questions about whether the existing IMF rules can accommodate these new technologies and assets.

但是，數字資產的快速發展以及像比特幣這樣的加密貨幣的興趣越來越多，提出了有關現有的IMF規則是否可以容納這些新技術和資產的問題。

The Central Bank of Chile, in an opinion submitted to the Senate Finance Commission in response to a request for observations on the SBR bill, expressed concerns that including Bitcoin among the legal monetary reserves might not align with the IMF's reserve-management rules. The bank's statement, dated 14 June and obtained by CoinDesk, highlighted the potential implications for the country's image and economic stability.

智利中央銀行在向參議院財政委員會提交的意見中，以應對SBR法案的要求，表示擔心，包括在法律貨幣儲備中包括比特幣可能與國際貨幣基金組織的儲備管理規則不符。該銀行的聲明日期為6月14日，由Coindesk獲得，強調了對該國形象和經濟穩定的潛在影響。

"The Central Bank considers that it may be pertinent to adjust the legal framework to incorporate digital assets in the monetary reserves, taking into account the observations of the international organizations to which Chile belongs, especially the IMF, in order to avoid any risk of non-compliance with the rules and regulations established by these organizations," the statement read.

“中央銀行認為，將法律框架調整為將數字資產納入貨幣儲備的法律框架可能是相關的，考慮到智利所屬的國際組織的觀察，尤其是IMF，以避免與這些組織建立的規則和規定不符合規則和規定的風險，”該聲明說。 ”

The potential inclusion of Bitcoin in Chile's monetary reserves has sparked debate among economists and policymakers. Some argue that it could provide new opportunities for portfolio diversification and macroeconomic stability, especially given the country's abundant renewable energy sources and the energy-intensive nature of Bitcoin mining.

智利貨幣儲備中的潛在包括比特幣引發了經濟學家和政策制定者之間的辯論。有人認為，它可以為投資組合多元化和宏觀經濟穩定提供新的機會，尤其是考慮到該國豐富的可再生能源以及比特幣採礦的能源密集型性質。

"The Bretton Woods institutions have never envisaged decentralized cryptocurrencies in their models for the world economy, despite the fact that several of the problems they aim to solve—like dollar hegemony, carbon emissions, and global poverty—are problems that Bitcoin may help solve,” said Dennis Porter, chief executive of the Satoshi Action Fund, a non-profit focused on promoting Bitcoin adoption.

丹尼斯·波特（Dennis Porter of Satoshi cocu）的首席執行官說：“儘管事實是，儘管他們旨在解決的一些問題（例如美元霸權，碳排放和全球貧困），但比特幣可能會幫助索羅斯·波特（Satoshi）的行動基金會，但比特幣的主管促進了一個非專業的行政基金，但比特幣可能會幫助促進比特幣，但比特幣可能會幫助BIT促進BIT OF ProProfit Formofit of Properofit，但Bitsofit Funs of ProProfit of Properofit of Properofit of Properfit of Properofit of Properofit，這是一個非專業的促進，從未在其模型中為世界經濟中的分散加密貨幣設想。

Others, however, caution against hasty decisions and suggest that more research is needed to assess the long-term economic and legal implications of such a move, especially given the high volatility and liquidity risks associated with crypto assets.

但是，其他人則謹慎對待倉促決定，並建議需要進行更多的研究來評估這種舉動的長期經濟和法律含義，尤其是考慮到與加密貨幣資產相關的高波動性和流動性風險。

The issue is expected to come to a head in the second half of the year, as the Finance Ministry prepares to engage in further sessions with the Central Bank to discuss the SBR bill in greater detail. The outcome could have significant implications not only for Chile but also for other Latin American economies, which are increasingly interested in exploring the potential of Bitcoin and other digital assets.

由於財政部準備與中央銀行進行進一步的會議，以更詳細地討論SBR法案，因此預計該問題將在今年下半年成為主題。結果不僅可能對智利，而且對其他拉丁美洲經濟體具有重大影響，而拉丁美洲經濟體越來越有興趣探索比特幣和其他數字資產的潛力。
