Oklahoma State Rep. Cody Maynard announced on Wednesday that he has introduced the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Act, proposing the integration of bitcoin into the state’s savings accounts and pension fund investments. The bill, officially titled House Bill 1203, was unveiled in Oklahoma City and seeks to position the state as a leader in sound monetary principles and innovative fiscal policies.
The legislation aligns with former President Trump’s focus on leveraging digital assets for economic stability. If passed, the act would permit state funds to invest in bitcoin and similar digital assets to generate consistent returns and protect purchasing power against inflation. Highlighting the significance of bitcoin, Maynard stated:
Bitcoin represents freedom from bureaucrats printing away our purchasing power. As a decentralized form of money, bitcoin cannot be manipulated or created by government entities. It is the ultimate store of value for those who believe in financial freedom and sound money principles.
Maynard argues that the act will prepare Oklahoma for a future where digital assets play a central role in the economy. He said the proposal ensures fiscal responsibility by hedging against inflation while protecting citizens’ financial interests. “This bill is about protecting the hard-earned money of Oklahoma’s citizens,” Maynard added, noting:
By diversifying our state’s savings and pension funds into digital assets, we are not only securing a stronger financial future for our state but also demonstrating Oklahoma’s leadership in adopting innovative fiscal policies.
The Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Act underscores Maynard’s confidence in bitcoin as a safeguard against economic volatility. He views the asset’s finite supply and decentralized structure as vital for maintaining economic stability and promoting long-term growth. The bill will be reviewed in the upcoming legislative session beginning Feb. 3, and if passed, it will take effect on Nov. 1.
