🚨🇺🇸 NORTH CAROLINA'S BITCOIN BILL – A LEGAL PAYMENT REVOLUTION?
New Bill Introduced: The North Carolina Digital Asset Freedom Act proposes recognizing Bitcoin-like assets as legal payment within the state.
Strict Criteria: To qualify, digital assets must:
Use Proof-of-Work consensus.
Have a capped supply.
🔹Exceed $750 billion in market cap — effectively pointing to Bitcoin only.
🔹Following CBDC Ban: This follows North Carolina’s 2024 ban on Central Bank Digital Currencies, showing a clear pro-Bitcoin stance.
Potential Benefits:
🔹Boost economic innovation and investment.
🔹Increase financial inclusion for unbanked communities.
🔹Lower transaction fees, improve privacy, and enable tax payments in Bitcoin.
Challenges Ahead:
🔹Price volatility, regulatory uncertainty, lack of infrastructure, environmental concerns, and need for consumer education.
🔹Impact: If passed, the bill could position North Carolina as a crypto-forward state and influence other U.S. states toward Bitcoin adoption.
