很好的消息！
说明在美国有一个州，比特币就是合法的货币。
比特币有一个合法的出口，在美国就是巨大的影响。 其它的州如果不承认是合法的货币，将会在竞争中落败！这样会有很多州效法加州。
比特币的成功又有了一个扎实的基础。
Topic: 利好：比特币在加州接近合法货币地位 - page 3. (Read 2404 times)
加州州议会正在努力有效地使比特币合法化 – 和其他保值替代物一样 – 上周三，作为金钱的一种形式，比特币清楚地进入一个重要阶段，因为它接近成为合法货币。
在6月4日，加州参议院和银行金融机构委员会以压倒性优势投票赞成AB-129号法案，该法案由众议员罗杰·迪金森撰写，承认数字货币，积分和优惠券，包括美元的替代品，成为合法货币。
委员会以7：1的投票通过率表示，该法案将移至参议院辩论。
如果获得批准，该法案将会送到加州州长杰里·布朗的办公桌签字。 二月的大会，AB-129法案在接受一致同意后，送到参议院委员会。
该法案现在正送往参议院，在全球最大经济体美国，比特币正一步步接近成为一个公认合法的货币。
呼吁完全废除
在参议院5月22日修订的最新版本中，呼吁完整废除107条关于企业代码的内容，107条防止企业或个人创建非法形式的货币。
此前，该法案修改第107条承认比特币是“合法货币”，有条文规定个人或企业不是必需接受数字货币作为支付形式。该法案还允许在加州自由使用比特币，但更彻底的废除107条，为各种数字货币打开了大门。
当它第一次送到参议院审议，迪金森对CoinDesk解释该法案的目的：
“我们不是要阻止或推动替代货币的发展。我们在一定范围内想说的是，我们在加州认为已开发且正在使用的替代货币是合法的“。
范围有限
今年三月，迪金森告诉CoinDesk，由于需要澄清一些价值替代物的合法地位，即使是一些历史悠久的价值替代物，也并不一定适应目前的加州法律，我们因此提出这个法案。
目前，监管部门认为，现行法律是需要改变的，以确保各种形式的替代货币用于购买商品和服务或付款传输时没有违反法律。
迪金森表示，他看到了比特币的其他价值，更为成熟的货币替代品，他说：
“不必过多的纠结于替代货币的问题，它在进化，不断发展壮大，这也提醒我们，你不能忽视替代货币。”
值得注意的是，提交的法案没有指定数字货币为法定货币，只是作为合法货币，可以购买商品和服务。
通过比较，法定货币是联邦认可的货币，毫无疑问，可以用于偿还债务或义务。
评论：利好，合法货币和法定货币似乎相差不远了，美国加州走在了加密货币的前列。
Bitcoin Closer to Attaining Lawful Money Status in California
The California state legislature’s effort to effectively legalize bitcoin — along side a host of other alternative stores of value — as forms of money cleared an important procedural stage on Wednesday as it moved closer to becoming law.
On 4th June, the California Senate Banking and Financial Institutions Committee voted overwhelmingly in favor of AB-129, the bill authored by Assemblymember Roger Dickinson that would recognize digital currencies, points and coupons, among other US dollar alternatives, as lawful money.
The 7-1 vote by the committee means the bill will move to the Senate floor for debate.
If approved, the bill will then go to California Governor Jerry Brown’s desk for signature. AB-129 was sent to the Senate committee in February after receiving unanimous approval in the Assembly.
With the bill now heading to the Senate floor, bitcoin is one step closer to becoming a recognized lawful money in the largest state economy in the US.
Call for complete repeal
The latest version of the bill, amended on 22nd May in the Senate, calls for a complete repeal of Section 107 of the Corporations Code, which prevents companies or persons from creating unlawful forms of money.
Previously, the bill altered Section 107 to recognize bitcoin as “lawful money”, with a provision stating that individuals or businesses were not required to accept digital currencies as a form of payment. The bill still allows for the free use of bitcoin in the state, but the broader repeal opens the door for a variety of digital currencies.
Dickinson explained the purpose of the bill to CoinDesk when it first moved to the Senate for considerating:
“We’re not trying to deter or advance the development of alternative currencies. We’re trying to say that to the extent that alternative currencies are developed and in use, we will consider that to be a legally acceptable activity in California.”
Limited scope
In March, Dickinson told CoinDesk that the effort was born out of a need to clarify the legal status of even long established alternative forms of value, which current California law doesn’t necessarily accommodate.
At present, regulators believe that changes are needed to current law to ensure that various forms of alternative currency do not violate the law when used for the purchase of goods and services or the transmission of payments.
Dickinson indicated that he saw bitcoin as worth of consideration among other, more established alternatives to money, stating:
“It wasn’t so much setting out to look at the issue of alternative currency, it was more evolutionary, leading into the breadth of the subject matter that suggested to us you couldn’t ignore alternative currencies.”
Notably, the proposed law would not designate digital currencies as legal tender, rather as lawful money that may be accepted for goods and services.
Legal tender, by comparison, constitutes a federally sanctioned currency that can unquestionably be used to settle debts or obligations.
