If passed and signed into law, “it would make Texas the first state to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve,” says Senator Charles Schwertner.
Texas state Senator Charles Schwertner has introduced a bill in the new legislative session to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve in the Lone Star State.
“It’s time for Texas to lead the way in establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve,” the Republican politician and physician said while announcing the Senate Bill (SB 778) on X on Jan. 16.
“If passed and signed into law, [it] would make Texas the first state in the nation to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve,” he said before adding, “This would position our state at the forefront of the digital economy, driving growth and securing economic freedom for our great state.”
