Bitcoin reserves gain momentum in 2025: These 13 states in the US will lead adoption
As Bitcoin emerges as a strong challenger to traditional assets like gold, there is a growing global debate about the role of BTC as a national reserve asset.
It was elected President Donald Trump who initiated discussions about Bitcoin reserves after he endorsed it as the “core of financial independence” for the United States. US states see Bitcoin as a lifeline Now, according to Dennis Porter, the CEO and co-founder of Satoshi Action Fund (SAC), at least 13 states in the United States, out of a total of 50, are working on creating Bitcoin reserves: “I can confirm that at least 13 states are working on ‘Strategic Bitcoin Reserve’ legislation. January is going to be a record month for Bitcoin policy,” Porter tweeted on January 3. Now, according to Dennis Porter, the CEO and co-founder of Satoshi Action Fund (SAC), at least 13 states in the United States, out of a total of 50, are working on creating Bitcoin reserves:
In November, Senator Cynthia Lummis initially proposed establishing a Bitcoin reserve in the United States. In a separate tweet, Porter added that there would be Bitcoin policy in 2025: There is a giant wave of Bitcoin policy coming and SatoshiActFund is leading the way,” he said.
The news is not entirely surprising as several lawmakers in the United States have already expressed their support for Bitcoin reserves. Derric Merin from Ohio said in December that as the US dollar faces devaluation, Bitcoin offers a means to diversify the state's portfolio and protect public funds. Texas also introduced a BTC reserve bill in December. But instead of buying Bitcoin directly, the bill would allow Texas to receive taxes, fees, and donations in BTC. The Pennsylvania Bitcoin Act proposes allocating up to 10% of treasury funds, 7 billion dollars of the state, to BTC.
