拉脫維亞經濟部長維克多斯·瓦萊尼（Viktors Valainis）在他的預測中，波羅的海國家將很快將其主權資產負債表的一部分放在比特幣中。

拉脫維亞會建立戰略比特幣儲備嗎？基層動力已經存在。 LV平台上的一份公民請願書要求政府創建一個比特幣儲備，並認為早期的推動者“在財務上和聲譽上獲利”。

Latvia's Minister of Economics, Viktors Valainis, has defended his prediction that the Baltic nation will soon put a portion of its sovereign balance sheet into Bitcoin.

拉脫維亞經濟部長維克多斯·瓦萊尼（Viktors Valainis）為他的預測辯護，即波羅的海國家將很快將其主權資產負債表的一部分放入比特幣中。

Speaking on the UN:BLOCK podcast, Valainis insisted that "a national strategic Bitcoin reserve is only a matter of time," adding that Latvia's small, export-oriented economy could reap oversized gains by moving first.

瓦蘭尼斯在聯合國：Block Podcast上表示，“國家戰略比特幣儲備只是時間問題”，並補充說，拉脫維亞的小型出口，面向出口的經濟可以通過首先提升。

"We need to think about how we can open those doors even wider, how we can show that we're truly welcoming international companies, that they see the ecosystem here is open to crypto," Valainis told the show. "There are people here who understand it... There's a whole incredibly strong ecosystem, which maybe hasn't been heard of enough, not just in Latvia, but globally."

Valainis告訴該節目：“我們需要考慮如何打開這些門更寬，我們如何表明我們真正歡迎國際公司，他們看到這裡的生態系統對加密貨幣開放。” “這裡有人理解它……有一個非常強大的生態系統，這可能還不夠多，不僅在拉脫維亞，而且在全球範圍內。”

Will Latvia Establish A Strategic Bitcoin Reserve?

拉脫維亞會建立戰略比特幣儲備嗎？

Grass-roots momentum already exists. A citizen petition on the Manabalss.lv platform asks the government to create a Bitcoin reserve, arguing that early movers "gain financially and reputationally." Valainis backs the proposal:

基層動力已經存在。 LV平台上的一份公民請願書要求政府建立一個比特幣儲備，認為早期的推動者“在經濟上和聲譽上獲利”。瓦萊尼（Valainis）支持該提議：

"When I was first asked to comment, I was very supportive. I don't see any significant risks. It's a way to symbolically show that you believe in this sector, that you believe in the future of everything related to Web3, and that you're actively engaging with it."

“當我第一次被要求發表評論時，我非常支持。我沒有看到任何重大風險。這是一種象徵性地表明您相信這個行業的方式，您相信與Web3相關的所有事物的未來，並且您正在積極參與其中。”

He even cited the United States - "I think it's something the U.S. has just done—Trump made that decision" - as proof that large jurisdictions are formalising crypto holdings, though Washington has not yet published details of any such programme.

他甚至引用了美國 - “我認為這是美國剛剛做的 - 特朗普做出了這一決定。

Valainis frames crypto openness as a competitive play.

Valainis將Crypto開放為競爭性。

"If we allowed taxes to be paid in crypto, I think we'd instantly get global attention... Honestly, we've got nothing to lose. We can only gain."

“如果我們允許在加密貨幣中繳納稅款，我認為我們會立即得到全球關注……老實說，我們沒有任何損失。我們只能獲得。”

Riga has already abolished the 3 percent withholding tax on crypto-asset disposals by non-residents for a three-year trial beginning 1 January 2025, a measure the minister championed to draw exchanges and custodians. The policy sits atop the Crypto-Asset Service Law, in force since 30 June 2024, which meshes national rules with the EU's Markets in Crypto-assets Regulation (MiCA) and designates Latvijas Banka as licensing authority. Existing providers may operate without a full MiCA licence until 30 June 2025 - a window Valainis described as "a door we can open even wider" to multinationals.

裡加已經廢除了非居民從2025年1月1日開始進行為期三年的審判的加密資產分配的3％預扣稅，這項措施旨在進行交流和保管人。該政策是自2024年6月30日以來生效的加密資產管理法律，該法律與歐盟市場中的國家規則結合在一起，在加密資產管理法規（MICA）中，並將Latvijas Banka指定為許可當局。現有的提供商可以在2025年6月30日之前沒有完整的雲母許可證 - 瓦萊尼被描述為“我們可以打開更寬的門”的窗戶向跨國公司。

"We have a variety of regulatory and security mechanisms in place that would allow us to react promptly if something went wrong or any risks emerged," he said. "People still drive cars even though there's a risk of accidents. The benefits far outweigh the risks."

他說：“我們有各種監管機制，如果出現問題或出現任何風險，可以使我們能夠立即做出反應。” “即使有事故的風險，人們仍然開車。好處遠遠超過了風險。”

The minister linked a prospective Bitcoin allocation to Latvia's second-pillar pension system, whose assets reached €8.78 billion at end-2024, less than a tenth of it invested domestically.

部長將預期的比特幣分配與拉脫維亞的第二支養老金體系聯繫起來，該系統在2024年底的資產達到87.8億歐元，不到國內投資的十分之一。

"That's serious money... Most of it is already outside Latvia—invested in other economies."

“那是一筆巨大的錢……大部分已經在拉脫維亞以外 - 在其他經濟體中進行了投資。”

Redirecting even a fraction into alternative assets such as Bitcoin, he argued, would align the fund with "major US pension funds" that are already buying crypto. Indeed, the State of Wisconsin Investment Board lifted its Bitcoin exposure to roughly $321 million this quarter, while the Michigan State Retirement System made a $6.6 million allocation to a spot-Bitcoin ETF last summer. Valainis sees such moves as validation:

他認為，即使將一小部分重定向到諸如比特幣之類的替代資產，這將使該基金與已經購買Crypto的“美國主要養老基金”保持一致。確實，威斯康星州投資委員會本季度將其比特幣的敞口提高到了約3.21億美元，而密歇根州退休系統於去年夏天向現場比蒂幣ETF分配了660萬美元。瓦萊尼（Valainis）認為這樣的舉動是驗證：

"They understand there are no other options. It has to be done. And the sooner you do it... you'll attract far greater benefits."

“他們知道沒有其他選擇。必須做。

Latvia's crypto-curious posture rests on a maturing start-up scene. Last November the country's two print-on-demand giants merged, creating a combined "mega-unicorn" valued well above $1 billion. Riga-based market-maker Gravity Team, meanwhile, says it handles about 1% of global spot-crypto volume.

拉脫維亞的加密姿勢姿勢放在一個成熟的初創企業中。去年11月，該國的兩個按需打印巨人合併，創造了一個總價值超過10億美元的“巨型無人區”。與此同時，總部位於里加的市政重力團隊說，它處理了全球現貨量的約1％。

"If more crypto companies emerge, the level of scientific knowledge will rise, and we'll have much more highly qualified labour," Valainis said, noting that the 2025 state budget is already allocating "a few hundred thousand euros" for ecosystem grants.

瓦萊尼說：“如果出現更多的加密公司，科學知識的水平將會提高，我們將擁有更高的勞動力。”他指出，2025年的國家預算已經在為生態系統贈款分配“數十萬歐元”。

Valainis, in closing, highlighted Latvia's freedom to experiment.

瓦蘭尼斯（Valainis）在結束時強調了拉脫維亞的實驗自由。

"It's not like we have to protect something sacred—like the Swiss banking system with all its deep traditions... We have a chance to be among the first—to go and do it."

“這並不是我們必須保護一些神聖的東西，就像瑞士銀行系統具有所有深厚的傳統……我們有機會成為第一個去做的事情。”

Whether the Saeima turns that rhetoric into a line item in the 2026 budget — or sooner, if the petition garners 10,000 signatures and forces debate — will determine how quickly Latvia joins the small but growing club of governments treating Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset.

Saeima是否將這種言論變成2026年預算中的訂單項目，還是請願書獲得10,000個簽名和部隊辯論，將決定拉脫維亞加入小型但不斷增長的政府俱樂部，將比特幣視為戰略儲備資產。
