APPROVED

Governor Katie Hobbs signed HB 2749 into law, officially creating the Arizona Bitcoin & Digital Assets Reserve. The bill redirects unclaimed-property profits to Bitcoin and top-tier digital assets, harvests interest, airdrops, and staking rewards from abandoned property, ensures robust U.S.-regulated custody, and keeps native bitcoin in digital form for lost BTC recovery.

Key Details:
  • Redirects unclaimed-property profits to Bitcoin & top-tier digital assets

  • Harvests interest, airdrops, and staking rewards from abandoned property

  • Ensures prudent diversification—Bitcoin augments, not overwhelms, Arizona's investment strategy

  • Mandates robust U.S.-regulated custody

  • Keeps native bitcoin in digital form enabling lost bitcoin to be returned in BTC instead of dollars
