#ArizonaBTCReserve The state of Arizona has taken an important step towards the implementation of bitcoin in the United States by 2025, passing two bills that allow direct investments of state funds in digital assets.

On Monday, the Arizona House of Representatives passed Senate bills 1025 and 1373, allowing investment of up to 10% of state assets, equivalent to approximately $3.14 billion, in bitcoin and NFTs. The bill is now awaiting the signature of Governor Katie Hobbs to take effect.

The bills also create a Strategic Reserve Fund for digital assets, which will be used to store confiscated cryptocurrencies and future acquisitions, requiring blockchain audits and strict risk management oversight.
