• Michigan proposes a bill to invest in Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies as part of its state reserve.
• The bill allows Michigan to invest up to 10% of state funds for cryptocurrency investments.
• Michigan becomes the 20th state to explore crypto reserve legislation alongside Texas and Utah.

Michigan lawmakers have introduced a bill to establish a state-managed Bitcoin reserve. Representatives Bryan Posthumus and Ron Robinson, proposed HB 4087 on February 13. The bill aims to modify Michigan’s Management and Budget Act, which would permit the state treasurer to invest in cryptocurrency. Michigan would be the 20th state to explore crypto reserve legislation if this bill passes. 

The bill allows the state to allocate up to 10% of its general and economic stabilization funds into digital assets. It does not specify which cryptocurrencies can be included. It also permits the lending of crypto assets if it does not increase financial risk. The state treasurer would manage the investments, ensuring secure custody through exchange-traded products or regulated investment companies.  

State-Level Crypto Initiatives Gain Momentum  

Several states are exploring cryptocurrency investments. Texas also introduced a bill that would allow investments in digital assets with a market capitalization of at least $500 billion. Currently, only Bitcoin qualifies under this requirement. Meanwhile, Utah’s Bitcoin reserve bill has advanced to the Senate. North Dakota remains the only state to reject similar legislation.  

Michigan’s pension fund has already gained exposure to crypto through exchange-traded funds. The new bill would expand the state’s involvement in digital assets. Supporters argue that adopting a Bitcoin reserve could enhance financial stability and offer long-term economic benefits.  

Potential Impact on the Crypto Market  

If multiple states adopt Bitcoin reserves, the combined investment could generate significant market demand. Analysts estimate that pending state-level proposals could contribute $23 billion in Bitcoin purchases. This figure does not include pension fund allocations, which could further drive demand.  

As states explore digital asset reserves, discussions continue at the federal level. The Trump administration has launched a task force to assess the feasibility of a national crypto stockpile. While details remain unclear, increasing state interest highlights Bitcoin’s growing role in public finance.
