With Bitcoin 
$103,449 prices hovering around $95,000, notable legislative developments regarding cryptocurrency reserve initiatives are occurring in two states. The proposed bills in Florida and Arizona have resulted in uncertainties within the investment environment.
Florida
In Florida, House Bill 487 and Senate Bill 550 targeted the investment of 10% of state funds into Bitcoin. However, these bills have been indefinitely postponed and removed from discussions. While other 230 laws were passed, Florida authorities did not support crypto-focused initiatives. This trend is observed in other states as well.
Arizona
Similarly, in Arizona, House Bill 1025 was proposed for creating a cryptocurrency asset reserve. Governor Katie Hobbs vetoed the bill, citing it as an “untested investment.”
Katie Hobbs: “Bitcoin is not yet sufficiently tested as an investment tool for state funds.”
Despite the veto, alternative proposals such as HB 2749 and SB 1373 are also on the agenda within the state.
Bitcoin Price Predictions
Investment firm VanEck projected that Bitcoin could reach $180,000 by 2025. This prediction is based on supply contraction, institutional investor flows, and demand for assets as an inflation hedge. Analysts suggest that more states adopting similar models could have positive long-term impacts.
Developments in Florida and Arizona indicate that not only local governments, but also other states are working on this model. States like Alabama, Missouri, and Texas continue to detail similar proposals. This process brings both hopes and reservations about transitioning to a strategic reserve model for crypto assets.
Dennis Porter, CEO of the Satoshi Action Fund, commented on Arizona’s new proposals as “two more chances.”
Dennis Porter: “Two new proposals in Arizona may offer additional opportunities for Bitcoin reserves.”
Legislative discussions and veto decisions highlight the uncertainties surrounding crypto reserve applications. While developments in both Florida and Arizona do not directly impact long-term Bitcoin price expectations, they encourage a cautious approach among investors. The effect of regulatory changes on the market will become clearer in the future.
