I keep reading that my state, Arizona enacted a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.

But when I read what was actually passed I’m like hmmmm.

1. Bitcoin presumed abandoned if the holder doesn’t respond to communications within 3 years?

2. State seizes unclaimed Bitcoin after 3 Years?

3. Reserve will be formed from Staking and Airdrops revenue from seized Bitcoin?

4. Reserve Fund used for future appropriations?

Most of this doesn’t even make sense.

“Holders must deliver the abandoned Bitcoin to the State? 🤣

Should this be celebrated? Or is it a Loss normalizing state seizure of CrYpTo wrapped in a glorified headline?

Furthermore, the other Bill which would have allowed Bitcoin Investment within State Pensions was vetoed.

This is called Escheatment. Most states have a process for collecting for itself things of value that have no known owner. Some establish funds for causes for such property. This is basically just that.
