Texas Leads the Charge as U.S. States Race to Embrace Bitcoin Reserves

Bitcoin is going mainstream in the U.S., and Texas is at the forefront of the revolution! On March 6, 2025, the Texas Senate passed the groundbreaking SB-21 bill with a 25-5 vote, paving the way for the Lone Star State to create its own strategic Bitcoin reserve. If signed into law by Governor Greg Abbott, Texas could become the first state in the nation to officially HODL BTC with public funds, a move that’s sending shockwaves through the financial world.

But Texas isn’t alone. Across the USA, states are jumping on the Bitcoin bandwagon, inspired by President Donald Trump’s executive order earlier today to establish a federal strategic Bitcoin reserve. New Hampshire’s House Committee just greenlit a bill to invest up to 5% of public funds in Bitcoin, passing with a landslide 16-1 vote. Utah’s teetering on the edge of a similar measure, with a deadline looming this week, while Arizona and Oklahoma are pushing their own crypto friendly legislation.

Why the rush? Proponents like Texas Senator Charles Schwertner argue Bitcoin is a hedge against inflation and a digital gold for the modern age. “We don’t have stacks of dollar bills in safes anymore what we have is digital currency,” Schwertner declared. With the federal government already sitting on 200,000 seized BTC (worth billions), states see a chance to secure their financial future.

Not everyone is cheering, though. Critics warn of Bitcoin’s volatility, and states like South Dakota and Wyoming have already shot down similar proposals.

But with Texas leading the charge and Trump’s crypto czar David Sacks hyping a national stockpile, the momentum is undeniable. Is this the dawn of a Bitcoin powered America? One thing is for sure: the states are betting big, and the stakes have never been higher. #Bitcoin #TexasStrong #CryptoUSA
