🇺🇸 Texas Makes History: First U.S. State to Add Bitcoin to a Strategic Reserve
#Texas has officially become the first U.S. state to allocate public funds toward Bitcoin as part of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, marking a historic step in institutional crypto adoption at the state level.
In late 2025, Texas enacted legislation authorizing the creation of a state-managed Bitcoin reserve and followed through with an initial allocation via regulated investment vehicles. While the first exposure was executed through a spot Bitcoin ETF structure, the move itself signals a broader shift: Bitcoin is no longer viewed solely as a speculative asset, but as a strategic financial instrument.
This decision reflects several core dynamics shaping global markets:
Monetary hedging: Bitcoin is increasingly discussed as protection against currency debasement and long-term inflation risks.
Institutional normalization: State-level participation further legitimizes Bitcoin alongside traditional reserve assets.
Strategic positioning: Texas, already a hub for Bitcoin mining and blockchain innovation, is reinforcing its pro-crypto stance with policy-backed action.
Importantly, Texas is not alone in exploring crypto-friendly frameworks, but it is the first to move from legislation to execution, setting a benchmark other states may study closely.
Whether this remains symbolic or evolves into broader adoption across U.S. state treasuries, one thing is clear:
Bitcoin has entered a new phase where public institutions are no longer just regulating it, but actively integrating it into long-term financial strategy.

Texas 'earthquake': Trump got a slap where he least expected it 🥊

Score: 57% against 43%.
Why is this a true sensation?
🔹 Historical shift: Democrats in the Senate from this district have not been seen for nearly 50 years.

🚨 Texas Governor Signs Bill to Safeguard State’s Bitcoin Reserves 🪙🇺🇸
Governor Greg Abbott has officially signed House Bill 4488, a key piece of legislation that protects certain state government funds — including off-treasury Bitcoin reserves — from being lumped into general revenue. That means these funds, including any BTC holdings created outside the treasury, won’t be forced to dissolve automatically in 2025 like other temporary funds.
But the spotlight now shifts to a much bigger move: Senate Bill 21 (SB21). This bill would allow Texas to invest in Bitcoin and other crypto assets — but only those with a market cap over $500B. Right now, that list includes just one name: Bitcoin.
Abbott’s got a deadline: June 22. That’s the final day he can either sign or veto SB21, since the bill hit his desk on June 1, right at the tail end of the legislative session.
This could set the tone for Texas as a crypto-forward state — or show hesitation at the edge of full-on adoption.
📅 Mark your calendars.
👀 All eyes on Abbott.
🔑 Only Bitcoin makes the cut (for now).

🔥 Texas Heatwave Sparks 15.8% Plunge in Bitcoin Hashrate
🌐 Just days after geopolitical tensions shook the crypto space, Bitcoin’s hashrate has now tumbled by nearly 16%, marking its sharpest decline in almost 3 years.
📉 What’s causing it?
This time, it’s not market panic — it’s Texas heat.
With record-breaking temperatures, major Bitcoin miners in Texas are being forced to power down operations to stabilize the grid and manage energy demands.
🛰 Add in U.S. airstrikes on Iran, and you have a perfect storm disrupting both infrastructure and investor sentiment.
💡 Why it matters:
▫️ A reduced hashrate can increase network vulnerability.
▫️ It reflects the growing interdependence of energy, climate, and crypto.
▫️ It's a strong reminder that Bitcoin mining isn’t just digital — it's deeply physical.
📊 As the climate and global tensions evolve, mining resilience and energy innovation will become the next big frontier.

Texas state Senator Charles Schwertner has introduced Senate Bill (SB 778) to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve in Texas. If passed, Texas would be the first state to have such a reserve, positioning it at the forefront of the digital economy. The bill aims to create a special fund for the state to own and hold Bitcoin (BTC) as a financial asset and accept Bitcoin donations from the public. It recognizes Bitcoin's potential to enhance financial resilience and serve as a hedge against inflation and economic volatility. The bill also proposes secure storage and management systems, including cold storage and regular audits for transparency and security. The funding for Bitcoin purchases would be limited to 1% of general revenue.
This is not the first attempt to establish a Bitcoin reserve in Texas. In December, Texas Representative Giovanni Capriglione proposed a similar bill (HB 1598) through the House. Other states like Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, North Dakota, and New Hampshire have also introduced similar bills recently.
