#ArizonaBTCReserve refers to a major legislative initiative in Arizona where the state is set to create the first-ever Strategic Bitcoin Reserve in the U.S. Here's a breakdown:
What It Means:
Arizona Senate passed two bills (SB1025 & SB1373) allowing the state to:
Invest up to 10% of its $31.5B public funds (around $3.14B) into Bitcoin and other digital assets.
Create a Digital Assets Reserve Fund to manage and audit crypto holdings transparently.
Why It Matters:
This would make Arizona the first U.S. state to officially hold Bitcoin as part of its treasury.
It signals a growing governmental interest in cryptocurrency as a hedge or investment.
If implemented, Arizona could acquire over 30,000 BTC at current prices.
Status:
The bills passed both the House and Senate.
Now awaiting Governor Katie Hobbs' signature to become law.
