SB 327 North Carolina Senate · 2025-2026 Session

NC Bitcoin Reserve and Investment Act.

SB 327, the North Carolina Bitcoin Reserve and Investment Act, authorizes the State Treasurer to allocate up to 10% of public funds into Bitcoin as a long-term strategic reserve. It requires the Treasurer to hold Bitcoin in secure offline storage with multi-signature protection, establish a dedicated department for management, and create an advisory board of industry experts. The reserve can only be used during severe financial crises, for approved infrastructure projects, or Bitcoin-related economic development, and requires a two-thirds vote by both legislative chambers to liquidate. The Treasurer must provide quarterly public reports on the reserve’s value and security, while complying with all federal and state cryptocurrency regulations.
