Arizona
$BTC Reserve Bill Using Seized #Crypto Assets Passes House
#Arizona's House has passed HB 2324 in a 34-22 vote, creating a reserve fund for seized cryptocurrencies.
The bill now heads to Governor Hobbs after passing the Senate 16-14 last week.
HB 2324 grants the State Treasurer authority to create the
$BTC and Digital Assets Reserve Fund.
The fund would manage crypto assets obtained through criminal forfeiture and enable investment in digital assets or #ETFs.
This marks Arizona's second crypto reserve legislation after HB 2749, involving unclaimed digital assets, passed last month.
#Revenue allocation directs the first $300,000 to the Anti-Racketeering Fund, with remaining amounts split between state funds and the new reserve.
