Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear signed the “Bitcoin Rights” bill (HB701) into law on March 24, 2025.
The law protects self-custody, blockchain nodes, and crypto transactions from regulatory discrimination.
Kentucky is considering House Bill 376 (KY HB376), which proposes creating a crypto reserve for the state.
This move aligns with broader trends across the U.S., as other states like Oklahoma and Arizona are advancing legislation to protect Bitcoin users and even create state-managed Bitcoin reserves.
