#ArizonaBTCReserve

This is a historic bill adopted by the state of Arizona, making it the first U.S. state to officially approve the creation of a strategic reserve of Bitcoin and digital currencies. The law allows the state to invest up to 10% of its public assets (approximately $3.1 billion) in digital assets such as Bitcoin, aiming to diversify reserve sources, hedge against inflation, and support financial innovation. The law also establishes a special fund to manage digital assets, including those seized from crimes. The bill is currently awaiting the signature of Governor Katie, making it a critical step that could inspire other U.S. states to adopt Bitcoin as an official asset in their budgets.
