The state treasury can also add stablecoins like Tether USD (<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/tether\/\">USDT<\/a>) and USD Coin (<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/usd-coin\/\">USDC<\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The bill also allows the state to invest in traditional precious metals like gold, silver, and platinum in addition to crypto.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The proposal also opens the door for New Hampshire to engage in staking, even though Bitcoin is the only crypto making the cut and is not based on a proof of stake consensus mechanism.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By integrating staking, New Hampshire would be ready to add crypto such as Ethereum (<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/ethereum\/\">ETH<\/a>) and Solana (<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/solana\/\">SOL<\/a>) in a scenario where their market caps meet the criteria, and earn passive revenue based on their holdings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, the bill proposes lending digital assets as another option, provided the state retains legal ownership and works with third-party providers in both cases.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Not sneaky<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/companies\/satoshi-action-fund\/\">Satoshi Action Fund<\/a> CEO and co-founder <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/people\/dennis-porter\/\">Dennis Porter<\/a> welcomed<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0the bill and<\/span> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Dennis_Porter_\/status\/1877761604827136284\">stated<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that it added the high market cap requirement to limit state investment in Bitcoin. He explained that calling the asset by name in the bill is impossible in some US states.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In response to comments that this was a &#8220;sneaky way&#8221; to add Bitcoin to state treasuries, Porter<\/span> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Dennis_Porter_\/status\/1877757532305039502\">explained<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;It\u2019s not a \u2018sneaky\u2019 way.
