Oklahoma House and Senate Pass Bill Protecting Fundamental Bitcoin Rights
The passage of the bill protecting fundamental Bitcoin rights in Oklahoma is a significant milestone in the push for crypto adoption and the establishment of a favorable regulatory environment for digital assets in the United States. The bill, which awaits the governor’s signature, will safeguard rights such as self-custody, mining, running a full node, and trading digital assets.
With an overwhelming 81-1 vote in the state house, the bill has received widespread support from lawmakers and the crypto community. Dennis Porter, CEO of the Satoshi Act Fund, emphasized the importance of defending the right to self-custody, stating that it is essential for Americans to have control over their own assets and financial destiny.
Following in the footsteps of Oklahoma, other states like Louisiana have also introduced similar legislation to protect Bitcoin rights. The bills aim to promote economic growth, job creation, and harness the potential of cryptocurrency technology to benefit residents.
If approved, the Oklahoma Bitcoin Rights Bill could unlock opportunities for crypto mining, utilizing the state’s abundant energy resources, and creating employment in rural areas. Supporters of the bill are calling for donations to ensure its successful passage into law and to continue the fight for digital liberty and financial freedom.
