Missouri advances in the approval of a bill that would establish a strategic Bitcoin fund. According to reports from ChainCatcher, the legislative initiative called HB 2080 aims to authorize state financial officials to safeguard cryptocurrency donations with a minimum holding period of five years. This is a measure that reflects the growing interest of U.S. state governments in integrating Bitcoin as a reserve asset.

The bill has been referred to the Missouri House Commerce Committee, where it will be reviewed in upcoming legislative proceedings. If the committee approves it, the proposal will move to the full House for final consideration, marking an important milestone in the adoption of pro-Bitcoin policies at the state level.
