North Dakota lawmakers have introduced a resolution encouraging the inclusion of digital assets and precious metals in the state treasury's portfolio to hedge against inflation. The resolution aims to future-proof the state's financial resources and directs the Secretary of State to forward copies of the proposal to relevant entities. Similar legislation has been introduced in New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Texas, Alabama, and Florida, reflecting growing interest among state governments in exploring cryptocurrencies as viable components of public investment portfolios. The New Hampshire bill, for example, allows investment in cryptocurrencies with a market cap above $500 billion or stablecoins, making Bitcoin the only crypto available for investment.
