Mississippi osariigi senat võttis vastu krüptokaevurite õigusi kaitsva seaduseelnõu

Mississippi’s state Senate has passed a bill to protect cryptoasset miners from being discriminated against on electricity rates. 

Vastavalt aru by Cointelegraph, the state Senate has passed the Mississippi Digital Asset Mining Act, which now awaits its companion bill to make it through the state’s House of Representatives. 

The bill, authored by state Senator Josh Harkins, will legalize home-based crypto mining and the operation of mining businesses in areas that have been designated for industrial use. In particular, the bill seeks to protect miners’ rights in a state that is known for some of the lowest electricity rates in the country and to clear the way for what it calls “regulatory challenges at the state and local level.”

In a bid for miner’s rights, the bill prohibits the state’s chief utility regulator, the Public Service Commission, from imposing “discriminatory rates” on mining businesses, while also exempting homes and business miners from money transmitter status. In addition, the bill helps clarify the state’s legal definition of “virtual currency.”

On 25 January 2023, Porter tweeted about his presentation — on the benefits of Bitcoin mining — to Capitol Hill staffers at a Senate Finance Committee hearing room.

Ja siis, vähem kui tund hiljem, pakkus Porter selle hea uudise:
