巴拿馬城是首都和最大的巴拿馬城，已批准使用比特幣，以太坊和兩個穩定的人

Panama City, the capital and the largest city of Panama, has approved the use of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and two stablecoins for various payments across the metro, Mayor Mayer Mizrachi announced this week, marking a major milestone in the global push for broader cryptocurrency adoption.

巴拿馬城是巴拿馬首都和最大的城市，已批准使用比特幣，以太坊和兩個穩定幣在地鐵上進行各種付款。

The city council voted in favor "of becoming the first public institution of government to accept payments in crypto," Mizrachi said in a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday.

Mizrachi在周三的X（以前是Twitter）上的一篇文章中說，市議會對“成為第一個接受加密貨幣付款的政府公共機構”的投票。

As part of the approval, residents of Panama City will be allowed to pay their taxes, tickets, permits, and other fees "entirely in crypto."

作為批准的一部分，將允許巴拿馬城的居民“完全在加密貨幣中”支付其稅款，門票，許可證和其他費用。

Mizrachi added that the digital assets that will be approved for city payments will be expanded in the long run, but for now, the city will accept crypto payments in the following digital coins:

Mizrachi補充說，從長遠來看，將批准將獲得城市付款的數字資產將擴大，但是目前，該市將在以下數字硬幣中接受加密付款：

Bitcoin (BTC)

比特幣（BTC）

Ethereum (ETH)

以太坊（ETH）

USD Coin (USDC)

美元硬幣（USDC）

Tether (USDT)

繫繩（USDT）

According to Mizrachi, previous city administrations did attempt to push a Senate bill to allow for crypto payments, but his government "found a simple way to do it without new legislation."

根據米茲拉奇（Mizrachi）的說法，以前的城市政府確實試圖推動參議院法案以允許加密貨幣付款，但他的政府“找到了一種簡單的方法來無需新立法”。

He explained that for the crypto payments to be settled, the city government will "partner with a bank who will take care of the transaction receiving in crypto and convert on spot to $."

他解釋說，為了解決加密貨幣，市政府將“與一家銀行合作，該銀行將照顧加密貨幣的交易，並將現場轉換為$。”

"This will be a simple and efficient process for everyone involved," Mizrachi stated.

Mizrachi說：“對於每個參與其中的人來說，這將是一個簡單有效的過程。”

Panama City's milestone comes amid continuing concerns over El Salvador's status as the world's leading Bitcoin adoption hub.

巴拿馬城的里程碑是在不斷擔心的是薩爾瓦多作為世界領先的比特幣採用中心的地位。

El Salvador under President Nayib Bukele has been pushing for BTC adoption across the country with multiple programs, including educational initiatives, partnerships with crypto firms, and a national strategic Bitcoin reserve.

納伊布·布克爾（Nayib Bukele）總統的埃爾·薩爾瓦多（El Salvador）一直在全國范圍內採用BTC採用多個計劃，包括教育計劃，與加密貨幣公司的合作夥伴關係以及國家戰略比特幣儲備。

However, things have become rocky in recent weeks after the Bukele administration secured a funding package from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The multi-billion-dollar loan deal with the IMF includes an agreement to halt Bitcoin purchases throughout the funding package's duration.

但是，在布克勒政府獲得國際貨幣基金組織（IMF）獲得資金方案後的近幾週，情況變得艱難。與國際貨幣基金組織達成的數十億美元貸款交易包括一項協議，以在整個資金套餐期間停止購買比特幣。

Panama City rises amid El Salvador's IMF hurdles as a potential hub for not just Bitcoin adoption but broader crypto adoption.

巴拿馬城在薩爾瓦多的國際貨幣基金組織（IMF）障礙中崛起，不僅是比特幣採用，而且採用更廣泛的加密貨幣。

Unlike El Salvador, which has long focused its crypto adoption efforts around Bitcoin, Panama City is expanding to Ethereum and stablecoins, which is undoubtedly a notch higher than its Central American counterpart.

與薩爾瓦多（El Salvador）長期以來一直集中在比特幣周圍採用加密貨幣的努力不同的是，巴拿馬城正在擴展到以太坊和穩定幣，這無疑是一個比中美洲同行高的檔次。

If its initiative pushes through, Panama City may become the first known "crypto city," especially with plans to expand the crypto payments it will cater to in the long run.

如果它的主動行動推動，巴拿馬城可能會成為第一個已知的“加密城市”，尤其是計劃擴大從長遠來看將迎合其將滿足的加密貨幣付款的計劃。

Panama, like El Salvador, is a Central American nation, but it is more strategically positioned, being the "land bridge" that connects North and South America.

巴拿馬像薩爾瓦多一樣，是一個中美洲國家，但在戰略上是連接北美和南美的“陸橋”。

Despite being smaller than South Carolina, Panama is known for its embrace of biodiversity and its Panama Canal, which is a key route for maritime trade in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.

儘管比南卡羅來納州小，但巴拿馬以其對生物多樣性及其巴拿馬運河的擁抱而聞名，這是大西洋和太平洋海上貿易的關鍵途徑。

With Panama City taking the lead, the capital city could well be on its way toward cementing its place in the world's known hubs for crypto adoption.

隨著巴拿馬城的帶頭，首都很可能正在鞏固其在世界知名樞紐的樞紐中的地位。
