[Massachusetts Bitcoin Reserve Bill Hearing Receives Tepid Response, Outlook Uncertain] Massachusetts Senator Peter Durant presented his proposed 'Bitcoin Strategic Reserve Bill' during a legislative hearing on Tuesday, but the session saw no questions from attendees and garnered a lukewarm response. The bill suggests that the state treasury could invest up to 10% of its stabilization fund in crypto assets and incorporate Bitcoin or other digital assets seized by the state government into reserves. However, with both the State House and Senate dominated by a Democratic majority, along with the governorship held by a Democrat, the bill's chances of passing remain unclear. Notably, similar crypto reserve legislation has already been enacted in Texas, Arizona, and New Hampshire.
