Texas made history this week by becoming the first US state to incorporate cryptocurrencies into its treasury strategy, purchasing $10 million in Bitcoin (BTC).
Texas Leverages BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF
Market expert MartyParty disclosed on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) that this investment was executed on November 25, 2025, through BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF).
This strategic move positions Texas as a trailblazer in state-level cryptocurrency adoption, reflecting a growing institutional interest in Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and as a vehicle for financial innovation.
The initiative is rooted in legislative actions encapsulated in Senate Bill 21 (SB 21), known as the Texas Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and Investment Act.
