德克萨斯州参议院通过比特币战略储备法案SB-21

这发生在一场辩论之后，介绍该法案的州参议员查尔斯·施沃特纳（Charles Schwertner）辩称，这将帮助德克萨斯州在其资产负债表中增加有价值和稀缺的资产。

The Texas Senate passed a bill that would create a Bitcoin strategic reserve for the state. The bill, SB-21 by State Senator Charles Schwertner, passed on March 6 following a debate.

德克萨斯州参议院通过了一项法案，该法案将为该州创建比特币战略储备。在辩论之后，州参议员查尔斯·施沃特纳（Charles Schwertner）由州参议员查尔斯·施韦特纳（Charles Schwertner）进行的SB-21法案通过。

Those who supported the bill argued that it would help Texas add a valuable and scarce asset to its balance sheet amid fears of Bitcoin contending against the US dollar as a global reserve currency. They also argued that Bitcoin was similar to gold and a hedge against inflation.

那些支持该法案的人认为，这将有助于德克萨斯州在其资产负债表中增加宝贵而稀缺的资产，这是因为担心比特币与美元作为全球储备货币争夺比特币。他们还认为，比特币类似于黄金和对冲通货膨胀。

“This bill is a small step in recognizing Bitcoin for what it is—a valuable asset that can help to secure the long-term economic future of our state,” said Senator Schwertner, R-Georgetown, who introduced the bill.

介绍该法案的R-Georgetown参议员说：“该法案是承认比特币的一小步，这是一项有价值的资产，可以帮助确保我们州的长期经济未来。”

If enacted, Texas would be the first state in the US to have a digital asset reserve. However, the governor must still sign the bill before it becomes law.

如果颁布，德克萨斯州将是美国第一个拥有数字资产储备的州。但是，州长仍必须在法案成为法案之前签署该法案。

The bill would create a reserve of up to 1,000 Bitcoin, which would be purchased over a period of five years. The reserve would be managed by the State Treasurer, who would be required to invest only in Bitcoin and to diversify the reserve among multiple wallets.

该法案将创建最多1,000个比特币的储备，这将在五年内购买。该储备将由国家财务主管管理，他们只需要投资比特币并在多个钱包之间进行多样化。

The bill would also create a task force to study the use of blockchain technology in state government.

该法案还将建立一个工作队，以研究在州政府中使用区块链技术的使用。

The bill is now headed to the House for consideration.

该法案现在要去众议院考虑。
