El Salvador debuterar National Bitcoin Office eftersom BTC förblir baisse
- El Salvador har etablerat en ny byrå som heter National Bitcoin Office (ONBTC) som kommer att leda alla projekt relaterade till blockchain och kryptovalutor i den centralamerikanska nationen.
- Byrån har fått frihet att samarbeta och designa projekt som involverar Bitcoin och även gå samman med organisationer baserade i andra nationer för detsamma.
- The ONBTC will also “design, diagnose, plan, program, coordinate, follow up, measure, analyze and evaluate plans, programs, and projects related to bitcoin for the economic development of the country.”
- The public bodies in El Salvador will have to collaborate with ONBTC “for the fulfillment of its functions and objectives.”
El Salvador, det första landet att acceptera Bitcoin (BTC), den world’s oldest and biggest crypto coin, som lagligt betalningsmedel i september förra året, har återigen tagit ett nytt initiativ mot kryptoantagande och etablerat National Bitcoin Office (ONBTC) som kommer att leda alla projekt relaterade till blockchain och kryptovalutor i den centralamerikanska nationen.
Enligt en nyligen publicerad LinkedIn posta, the government created ONBTC whose aim is to manage “all projects related to the cryptocurrency” and also “work as a specialized administrative unit, with functional and technical autonomy within the Presidency of the Republic.”
“The creation of the entity was through Decree No. 49, published in the Official Gazette of November 17, signed by the President of the Republic, and the Minister of Tourism as in charge of the office of the Minister of Economy,” read the official confirmation from El Salvador.
Intressant nog har den nya byrån som etablerats i El Salvador också fått makten att samarbeta med andra nationer när det kommer till frågor som rör krypto och Bitcoin (BTC). Detta är första gången ett organ har inrättats av en regering som har antagit det ledande kryptomyntet som lagligt betalningsmedel.
The agency has been given freedom to collaborate and design projects involving Bitcoin and also join forces with organizations based in other nations for the same. The ONBTC will also “design, diagnose, plan, program, coordinate, follow up, measure, analyze and evaluate plans, programs, and projects related to bitcoin for the economic development of the country.”
The new agency will also be responsible for analyzing all the individuals as well as entities who wish to meet and speak to the President of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, regarding Bitcoin projects and the Central American nation’s blockchain technology-driven path.
“Another task of the Bitcoin Office is to coordinate the actions related to the formulation of relevant policies on Bitcoin and Blockchain that the Presidency determines in the short, medium and long term and its correspondence with the economic and educational programs in coordination with the corresponding Institutions,” read the post.
Lastly, the post also confirmed that the public bodies in El Salvador will have to collaborate with ONBTC “for the fulfillment of its functions and objectives.” An example of the same was also given in the post, stating that the Ministry of Foregin Affairs “will collaborate in cases of international cooperation, while the autonomous and municipalities may do so to the extent that their regulations allow.”
El Salvador and its President’s bullish stance on Bitcoin and blockchain refuses to fade despite the kollapsen av kryptobörsen FTX för flera miljarder dollar och priskraschen som följde. President Bukele meddelade att den centralamerikanska nationen kommer att fortsätta att köpa 1 BTC per dag mitt i den baisseartade marknaden. Regeringen är också på väg till debut Bitcoin-backed “volcano” bonds.
