温哥华市已通过一项动议，探讨如何使该市成为Bitcoin友好城市。该动议于周三获得批准，旨在探索Bitcoin的市政用例，例如接受比特币作为支付方式或直接投资该资产。
加拿大最大的城市之一温哥华正在考虑探索Bitcoin的市政用例。周三，温哥华市议会通过了一项动议，使该市成为Bitcoin友好市。
尽管该动议旨在探讨监管机构对比特币的接受程度，但这可能意味着市政当局很快就会接受比特币作为支付方式或直接投资该资产。然而，这可能为市政当局接受比特币纳税或将部分城市储备转换为Bitcoin铺平道路。

Mayor Ken Sim initiated and championed the proposal and later supported by his ABC Vancouver councilors, while two Green councilors opposed it. Ken Sim said during a phone interview that he had longed to initiate the proposal for a while but felt the public needed more time to be ready to have the conversation.
Ken Sim mentioned that he decided to be more vocal about his pro-crypto stance after seeing the recent developments in the United States and other nation-states showing signs of embracing Bitcoin’s utilities.
Sim announced the motion in late September titled “Preserving the City’s Purchasing Power Through Diversification of Financial Reserves—Becoming a Bitcoin-Friendly City.”.
The motion states that integrating BTC into Vancouver’s finances could shield the city from the volatility, debasement, and inflationary pressures of fiat currencies and preserve its purchasing power. It also highlights that embracing Bitcoin is a pro-innovation agenda that supports emerging technologies.
Since then, Sim has been vocal about Bitcoin and its underlying technology. He called the asset the “greatest invention” in the history of mankind and stated that fiat currency would depreciate to zero. The official believes Bitcoin is undervalued and currently only worth a fraction of its future worth but emphasized that he was not in a position to give financial advice.
Ken Sim promises to donate 10,000 in Bitcoin to Vancouver
In an interview with Global News, Ken Sim said he used to be skeptical about BTC and digital currencies until he spent 10,000 hours researching the topic. He said he changed his mind, and digital assets are now part of his family’s investment portfolio.
The mayor’s financial disclosure revealed he has investments in Coinbase Global, a publicly traded cryptocurrency exchange, and the Canadian Bitcoin exchange-traded fund Purpose BTC ETF.
Before the vote, the official promised to donate $10,000 in BTC to the city regardless of the council’s outcome. Although most of the council voted in favor of the motion, some, like Green Coun. Pete Fry expressed their criticism, citing BTC’s potential use as a money laundering tool, which is a major problem that underpins Vancouver’s drug and housing turmoil.
The West Coast Canadian city is considered one of the crypto hubs worldwide. The city claims the title of having the world’s first Bitcoin ATM, which was installed back in 2013. Vancouver also boasts housing blockchain-oriented startups such as Dapper Labs Inc.
