Oklahoma joins the Bitcoin reserve movement

-

Oklahoma is jumping on the Bitcoin bandwagon, becoming the latest state to explore the idea of holding Bitcoin as a state reserve asset.

This move follows in the footsteps of Texas and others, all planning to secure some financial stability in these unpredictable times.

State-level Bitcoin reserves could come sooner than the national reserve

Crypto advocate Dennis Porter shared that Oklahoma’s House of Representatives has introduced a bill for a strategic BTC Reserve.

It seems like states are racing to establish their own Bitcoin reserves before the federal government potentially steps in, because with Donald Trump back in the presidential seat, there’s chatter that he might issue an executive order to create a national Bitcoin reserve.

If that doesn’t happen soon, individual states are ready to take matters into their own hands.

Oklahoma is the sixth in the row, it’s not an idea anymore, it’s a pattern

Oklahoma is now the sixth state eyeing this strategy, joining others like Texas, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and New Hampshire.

Texas has already set up its own Bitcoin reserve by law, and just last week, North Dakota introduced a resolution that could soon become an official bill.

Supporters believe that Bitcoin reserves could open up new avenues for financial growth and security, critics are raising red flags about Bitcoin’s notorious volatility, and argue that this makes it a risky asset to hold. Still, proponents see it as a way for states to protect their assets against inflation and economic hardship.

A Bitcoin reserve is a big deal?

The hype around state-based Bitcoin reserves has been building since Trump’s re-election in November.

Industry figures like Anthony Pompliano are urging him to follow through on his promise of a national Bitcoin reserve within his first 100 days in office.

They believe such action could boost Bitcoin’s price and encourage other countries to adopt it more widely.
