Texas is about to do something big! The eighth largest economy in the world, holding a GDP of $2.6 trillion, is actually preparing to treat Bitcoin as a 'national reserve'! You heard it right, this is not just playing with digital currency, it's a direct challenge to traditional finance at the government level, becoming the first 'big state' willing to bet on the cryptocurrency world!
On May 20, the Texas legislature passed the Bitcoin Reserve Bill with an overwhelming vote of 105 to 23, preparing to put this 'digital gold' into the official wallet. Once this happens, who would dare say that cryptocurrency is just a 'speculative thing'? Texas has directly given it the title of 'strategic asset', making it a 'hardcore belief' in the U.S. crypto space.
Even more aggressive, during the legislative process, the threshold for other digital assets was raised - they must have a market capitalization of at least $500 billion and remain in that state for two years. Isn't this just pouring cold water on other coins? In other words, apart from Bitcoin, don’t even think about getting in! This is purely an official announcement of the 'leader of the crypto world' status, other coins can't even get close.
In simple terms, Texas is telling the whole world: traditional economies can handle digital assets, who is still afraid of the winds and waves in the crypto world? You small coins can continue with your flashy moves, Bitcoin is the king, only it deserves the honor of being an 'official reserve'.
Want to see how the crypto world explodes next? Keep a close eye on Texas, don’t blink, this 'battle for the throne' in digital finance has just begun!
