Investing in Bitcoin Helps States Protect Themselves From Washington's Excess
- In May 2025, New Hampshire led the nation by approving legislation that permits up to 5% of certain state funds to be invested in Bitcoin or precious metals as part of a strategic reserve.
- This legislation responds to rising national debt of over $36.2 trillion and projected federal interest payments nearing $1 trillion by 2026, which threaten fiscal stability.
- The law sets strict requirements including $500 billion market capitalization and secure US-regulated custody, currently qualifying only Bitcoin for the reserve.
- New Hampshire legislator Ammon, who introduced House Bill 302, emphasizes that concern over inflation and fiscal discipline crosses party lines, reflecting strong bipartisan backing for the measure.
- This move invites other states to protect taxpayer funds against federal mismanagement and inflation by diversifying with fixed-supply assets like Bitcoin and precious metals.
