#DigitalAssetBill

The North Carolina House has passed the "Digital Asset Investment Act" (House Bill 92) with a 71-44 vote, allowing the state treasurer to invest up to 5% of public funds in approved cryptocurrencies and digital assets. The bill requires an independent third-party assessment to ensure secure custody, risk management, and regulatory compliance before any investment. It also opens the possibility for state employees' retirement plans to include digital asset exposure through exchange-traded products. The bill now moves to the state Senate for review. Meanwhile, the White House crypto policy adviser has indicated that key U.S. crypto legislation is expected to be completed by the end of August 2025.
