New Hampshire Invests in Bitcoin: State Approves Strategic Reserve Law

Governor Kelly Ayotte has signed legislation establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve for New Hampshire’s state treasury, positioning the state as a pioneer in cryptocurrency investment. The bill, House Bill 302, allows up to 5% of state reserves to be allocated to eligible digital assets and precious metals, with Bitcoin being the only asset meeting the $500 billion market cap requirement. This groundbreaking decision sets a precedent for other states and underscores New Hampshire’s commitment to integrating cryptocurrency into its financial landscape.
