Lone Star ledger: Texas clears final hurdle for Bitcoin reserve fund

The Texas Senate has approved the conference committee report for Senate Bill 21 by a decisive 24-7 margin. This move has cleared the final legislative hurdle for the state’s proposed Bitcoin reserve fund. With both chambers adopting the measure, the legislation advances to Governor Greg Abbott for final approval and signature into law. During floor proceedings, Senator Schwertner declared the motion’s success and underlined that the law creates the Texas Strategic Bitcoin ( BTC ) Reserve as a specialized fund that would be administered by the state Comptroller of Public Accounts.

This includes authorization for the Comptroller to engage qualified liquidity providers and expand the fund’s financial capabilities. Legislative negotiators made major modifications to the original proposal during conference committee discussions. A key revision extends the duration requirement for eligible cryptocurrencies from 12 months to 24 months. This means altcoins must maintain a minimum market capitalization of $500 billion for two full years before qualifying for inclusion in the reserve. Members of the conference committee declined to allow the Comptroller to use reserve assets for lending or staking. In addition, they removed clauses that would have allowed voluntary cryptocurrency contributions to the fund. The legislation positions Texas to become the third state to establish an official Bitcoin reserve. This is following pioneering efforts by New Hampshire and Arizona. The development shows a growing trend among state governments exploring cryptocurrency as a tool for financial diversification and economic resilience. New Hampshire’s framework served as a reference point for Texas legislators, particularly regarding the methodology for evaluating and incorporating additional digital assets beyond Bitcoin i nto state reserves. The $500 billion market capitalization threshold represents one of the most stringent requirements among state-level cryptocurrency initiatives. With a number of mining operations and blockchain startups establishing significant presences within state borders, Texas has established itself as a leader in the adoption of cryptocurrencies.
