#ArizonaBTCReserve
Arizona is poised to become the first U.S. state to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. On April 28, 2025, the state legislature passed Senate Bills 1025 and 1373, authorizing up to 10% of Arizona’s $31.5 billion public funds to be invested in digital assets like Bitcoin. The bills also create a Digital Assets Strategic Reserve Fund to manage seized or purchased crypto assets with on-chain transparency and strict risk controls. Supporters argue this move diversifies state assets and prepares for a blockchain-driven financial future. However, the legislation awaits Governor Katie Hobbs’ signature, and its fate remains uncertain amid broader budget negotiations.
