#ArizonaBTCReserve **#ArizonaBTCReserve: A Historic First in State Finance**

Arizona is making history by becoming the first U.S. state to approve a **Bitcoin reserve**. Two bills—**SB1025** and **SB1373**—have passed the legislature, allowing up to **10% of state treasury and retirement funds** to be invested in Bitcoin and other digital assets.

The move aims to diversify public investments and enhance transparency with **on-chain auditability**. If signed by Governor Katie Hobbs, Arizona will lead in integrating crypto into state-level finance.

Lawmakers are also considering making **Bitcoin legal tender**, allowing it to be used for taxes and debts.

With BTC trading near **$94,978**, this bold move may inspire other states to follow.
