Kansas Lawmakers Propose State-Run Bitcoin and Digital Assets Reserve Fund
Kansas Senate Bill 352 would create a state‑run Bitcoin and Digital Assets Reserve Fund, allowing the treasurer to claim unclaimed crypto assets and credit 10% of each deposit to the general fund while keeping the principal separate. The bill updates Kansas law to treat digital assets as unclaimed property, establishing clear custody rules. It mirrors similar proposals in Arizona, Utah and Oklahoma, part of a broader U.S. trend toward formalizing government Bitcoin reserves. The initiative reflects growing interest in leveraging crypto holdings for modest state revenue without exposing core budgets to volatility.
