New Hampshire Becomes First US State to Approve Bitcoin Reserve Bill

In a landmark move, New Hampshire has become the first U.S. state to pass a Bitcoin reserve bill into law. The legislation, introduced by Republican Representative Keith Ammon and co-sponsored by Democrats Chris McAleer and Carry Spier, allows the state treasurer to invest in Bitcoin and other digital assets if they possess a market capitalization of at least $500 billion. This move marks a significant step towards integrating cryptocurrencies into public finance.
