Representatives from both states submitted draft legislation supporting the program on Friday, adding Wyoming and Massachusetts to the growing number of U.S. says that perhaps soon vote on establishing Crypto deposits.  ,
A group of five Democratic legislators from Wyoming introduced a bill that would allow the state manager to commit public funds in Bitcoin but not any other digital assets.
Other states have recently introduced slightly more restrictive costs that would, in some cases, permit declares to invest in bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies over$ 500 billion in market capitalization, but Bitcoin is the only advantage that meets those requirements.
Wyoming’s bill also has more restrictions on Bitcoin investment: it would only force its treasurer to spend 3 % of a given state fund. Policy proposals in other states, such as those in Pennsylvania and Oklahoma, may allow for digital asset purchases to account for 10 % of related public money.  ,
However, in serious orange Massachusetts, a lone Republican state senator proposed a bill on Friday proposing the creation of a Crypto strategic reserve. The act, submitted by Peter Durant, would permit the use of Bitcoin or any other form of digital asset to up to 10 % of Massachusetts ‘ rainy day fund. It is more liberal than Wyoming’s.  ,  ,
At this point, almost one-fifth of all U. S. state legislature are poised to quickly fully weigh whether to spend public money in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Every for plan has been submitted in the fallout of Donald Trump’s re-election in November, by Republicans.
Trump has long been a staunch Bitcoin writer, so he instantly changed his mind when running for president this time. In July, backstage at a Bitcoins meeting in Nashville, he called for the federal government to create its own Cryptocurrency hoard.  ,
The popularity of these activities is on the rise. For the first time in a while, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong made a public demand for the development of a U.S. Bitcoin proper reserve on Friday afternoon.  ,
” The second global hands race will be in the online market, not room”, Armstrong said in a business blog post. In a world where holdings of Bitcoin can shift the balance of power between nation states, it is possible that Bitcoin will be as fundamental to the world economy as metal and will become central to national security.
