#ArizonaBTCReserve

In February 2025, the state of Arizona passed a bill allowing the use of Bitcoin (BTC) as a reserve asset in the state’s pension fund [4]. This bill was signed into law by the Governor of Arizona in March 2025 [4].

This bill allows the state of Arizona to invest in Bitcoin by purchasing and holding this cryptocurrency in the state’s pension fund [4]. This marks an important step in the acceptance and use of Bitcoin as an official reserve asset.

However, it is also important to note that investing in Bitcoin still carries risks and volatility. The state of Arizona needs to carefully consider and effectively manage risks to ensure that investing in Bitcoin does not affect the state’s pension fund [4].

Below are some important details about this bill:

- *Investment amount:* The state of Arizona may invest up to 5% of the total assets of the pension fund into Bitcoin [4].

- *Risk management:* The state of Arizona will have to establish a risk management plan to ensure that investing in Bitcoin does not impact the state’s pension fund [4].

- *Periodic reporting:* The state of Arizona will have to report periodically on its investment in Bitcoin and the performance of this cryptocurrency [4].
