New South Dakota Bill è visto come una minaccia per Bitcoin
- Diversi leader delle criptovalute hanno criticato il nuovo disegno di legge come una minaccia per Bitcoin.
- Se approvata, la proposta di legge entrerà in vigore il 1° luglio, 2024.
Crypto users in the United States believe bitcoin, the foremost cryptocurrency, is facing a huge threat in the US, and their fears were worsened by a bill proposed in South Dakota. The new bill seeks to amend the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) and restrict cryptocurrencies from being defined as “money.” However, the proposed bill provides a secure pathway for central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) and classifies them as money.
The proposal, which was introduced by Republican lawmaker Mike Stevens, defines money as “a medium of exchange that is currently authorized or adopted by a domestic or foreign government.” The 117-page amendment paper further explains money as a term that includes “a monetary unit of account established by an intergovernmental organization or by agreement between two or more countries.”
Secondo il conto,
Il termine non include un record elettronico che è un mezzo di scambio registrato e trasferibile in un sistema che esisteva e operava per il mezzo di scambio prima che il mezzo di scambio fosse autorizzato o adottato dal governo.
The proposed bill was heavily criticized by crypto users and experts alike. Commenting on the bill, Dennis Porter, CEO and co-founder of Satoshi Act Fund, wrote that the bill “would ensure that only governments can create ‘money’ which on its face would exclude all digital assets.”
Interpretando la proposta di legge, Porter ha spiegato che ci sono tentativi di far rispettare questa politica in 21 diversi stati in the US. He further wrote that “there is seemingly a goal to build a bull work of pro-CBDC states that also exclude digital assets like Bitcoin from the definition of money.”
Yaël Ossowski, Deputy Director of the Consumer Choice Center (CCC), said South Dakota’s push would have “minimal teeth, but it’s still a threat to BTC.” Also, Andy Roth, President of the State Freedom Caucus Network, tweeted that the bill was a huge deal that “must be stopped.”
Il disegno di legge arriva in un momento in cui diversi regolatori statunitensi si stanno preparando a regolamentare l'industria delle criptovalute.
