Interest in Bitcoin in the US is expanding beyond individuals. Several states are contemplating Bitcoin reserves to foster financial innovation and diversify their economies.

How is Texas Leading the Charge?

In Texas, steps are being taken towards establishing a Bitcoin reserve. Representative Giovanni Capriglione introduced a bill in December 2024, proposing the creation of a state-sanctioned Bitcoin stockpile. This legislation mandates that the Bitcoin be stored in cold wallets for a minimum of five years and prohibits transactions outside state lines.

What Other States Are Following Suit?

In Pennsylvania, the House of Representatives proposed a bill in November 2024 that advocates for allocating 10% from its General Fund to invest in Bitcoin, potentially amounting to around $1 billion. This aims to leverage Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation.

Ohio has introduced a bill allowing its treasury to acquire Bitcoin, reflecting a commitment to technological advancements and safeguarding tax revenues from depreciation.

New Hampshire’s recent proposal, introduced by Keith Ammon, aims for investments specifically in Bitcoin, citing its substantial market capitalization. Meanwhile, North Dakota’s legislators have suggested investing state funds into various cryptocurrencies, indicating the potential for future detailed proposals.

The Future of Economic Innovation in the US

These initiatives reflect a growing trend among US states to embrace economic innovation, keeping pace with the digital landscape while aiming for long-term financial resilience.

With efforts from states like Texas and Pennsylvania to embrace new financial practices, interest in Bitcoin and its economic potential in the US continues to grow.
