Can the discovery of the Higgs boson be used to define the kilogram (SI base unit of mass) by a fundamental physical property?

The kilogram, is the base unit of mass in the International System of Units but it's still the only one that is not defined by a fundamental physical property but an artifact. 

As far as I understand it the discovery of the Higgs boson helps us in understanding why things have mass. Could this lead to making kilogram a well defined SI unit?

There is a proposal to define the kilogram such that Planck's constant has an exact value, similar to how the meter is such that the speed of light has an exact value. That may be implemented in 2018. Doesn't really have anything to do with the Higgs though.
