#ArizonaBTCReserve
Arizona is on the verge of making crypto history by becoming the first U.S. state to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve. Two groundbreaking bills—SB1025 and SB1373—have just been passed by the Arizona House. SB1025 would allow the state treasurer to invest up to 10% of public funds (around $3.15 billion) in digital assets like Bitcoin. SB1373 proposes the creation of a Digital Asset Reserve Fund, fueled by seized crypto and future allocations, with the potential to lend assets under strict risk management protocols.
The final step? A signature from Governor Katie Hobbs. However, she’s currently holding off on any legislation until a bipartisan budget deal is reached to ensure funding for critical healthcare services. Still, if she signs, Arizona will officially lead the nation in crypto adoption at the state level.
This bold move aligns with a growing national trend. In March, President Trump signed an executive order calling for a Federal Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. If Arizona pushes forward, it will send a powerful message: crypto is no longer just a fringe investment—it’s part of the future of finance.
This could be a game-changer, inspiring other states to follow. Bitcoin is stepping into the spotlight, and Arizona might just be the one to turn on the lights.
