New Hampshire Makes History: First State to Legalize Crypto Reserves for Treasury
New Hampshire Makes History: First State to Legalize Crypto Reserves for Treasury
9

New Hampshire just rewrote the rulebook—state treasuries can now hold Bitcoin and other digital assets as reserve assets. Move over, gold bars.
Why it matters: This isn’t just symbolic. The ’Live Free or Die’ state just gave institutional legitimacy to crypto at the government level—while Wall Street still debates ETF custodianship.
The fine print: Treasury officials get to pick ’qualified’ custodians (read: probably not your cousin’s MetaMask wallet). Assets must meet liquidity thresholds—so no memecoins allowed, no matter how viral.
Wall Street’s reaction: Silence. Probably too busy calculating how to slap a 2% management fee on this.
