#数字资产法案 **California Advances Cryptocurrency Protection and Legalization through the Digital Assets Act**

In March 2025, California amended the Digital Assets Act (formerly the Money Transmission Act) to explicitly protect the rights to payment and self-custody of cryptocurrencies. The act allows residents to conduct transactions using digital assets like Bitcoin and prohibits public agencies from taxing or restricting them. Additionally, the act prohibits public officials from promoting digital assets to avoid conflicts of interest, and incorporates unclaimed cryptocurrencies under state government management. As the fifth largest economy in the world, California's move may set a precedent for other states in the U.S., further promoting the legalization and mainstream adoption of digital assets.
