Eight states in the U.S. are actively pushing for legislation to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, including New Hampshire, Alabama, Florida, Pennsylvania, Texas, Ohio, North Dakota, and Oklahoma. Wyoming has recently joined these efforts, becoming the 9th state to introduce such legislation. Wyoming's Representative Jacob Wasserburger introduced a bill that would allow the state's permanent funds to diversify into Bitcoin, marking a significant step in financial innovation, according to Senator Cynthia Lummis. The move is seen as part of a broader trend, with up to 15 states potentially working on similar legislation in 2025.
