New Hampshire’s move to include Bitcoin in its strategic reserves isn’t just symbolic — it signals a shift in how governments may view digital assets. Under Bill HB 302, up to 5% of public funds can now be allocated to digital assets and precious metals with a market cap over $500B.
This comes at a time when central banks around the world are battling inflation, political uncertainty, and the risks of overreliance on fiat currencies. Bitcoin, as a decentralized and finite asset, is increasingly being seen as a hedge and store of value.
This step is more than policy — it’s a precedent. Other states or even nations could follow, especially as trust in traditional systems continues to erode.

#FOMCMeeting On May 8, the Federal Reserve will announce its interest rate decision. While markets expect no change, everyone is watching closely to see how long the Fed will maintain its current stance.
No rate cuts might cause temporary pressure on stocks and crypto, but Bitcoin — now entering official reserves — is positioning itself as a long-term safe haven.

The real question is: Will this boost institutional trust in Bitcoin? Could this set off a trend of Bitcoin adoption at the state or national level?
