Arizona Paves the Way for Bitcoin Investment with Historic Reserve Law

yesterday / 21:57
Arizona has taken a significant step by passing a pioneering BTC reserve bill that would allow the state to invest up to 10% of its public funds in virtual currencies, including Bitcoin. Reported by crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett, this bill marks the first instance of a US state authorizing public funds to be allocated to virtual currencies. The legislation now awaits the signature of Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs to become law. If enacted, the bill could herald a new era of institutional validation for Bitcoin, potentially increasing its acceptance and investment both publicly and privately. The move reflects a growing trend among government bodies to explore digital asset integration into traditional financial frameworks.
