The Arizona Senate passed a landmark bill to create a state-level Bitcoin reserve, joining Texas and Missouri in a growing trend of U.S. states going full laser-eyes 🟠.
Here’s why this is more than just political signaling

✅ The reserve will be managed like a strategic treasury asset, not just speculation.
📜 Lawmakers cited dollar inflation and debt as reasons to diversify into BTC.
🏦 It could legitimize BTC as a hedge in state-level financial policy.
✨ Signals growing state pushback against federal monetary control.

🧐 Market Overview: Institutions Buying, States Hodling, Bitcoin Flying
Bitcoin blasted through a new all-time high, touching $111,875 (+8.7% WoW), driven by institutional FOMO and regulatory tailwinds.
Ethereum held steady near $2,470 (+1.5%), while Solana climbed to $188 (+4.2%) as TradFi giants like HSBC and Bank of America began tokenizing assets on its chain.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Senate passed the long-awaited GENIUS Act, giving stablecoins their first fundamental regulatory framework… and potentially unlocking trillions in sidelined capital. JPMorgan’s pivot into BTC access for clients added fuel to the fire, as did Texas and Arizona's push forward of Bitcoin reserve legislation.
🟢 Macro tailwinds: The dollar weakened, inflation data softened, and TradFi risk appetite returned, all bullish for crypto.
