Co-founder of Satoshi Action Fund, Dennis Porter, announced that a Democratic lawmaker from a Democratic trifecta state is said to introduce a Bitcoin Rights Bill, which would protect the rights of Bitcoin holders. If this is confirmed, it will be the first time that a Democratic trifecta state enacts a law allowing self-custody for Bitcoin holders. The bill would allow residents to have full control over their digital assets, such as Bitcoin, without depending on third-party services like crypto exchanges. This development is seen as a significant move that could reshape the political landscape for Bitcoin. Recently, the Pennsylvania House of Representatives passed a similar bill, and in January, the Virginia State Senate introduced a bill to protect Bitcoin miners and ensure self-custody rights for Bitcoin holders. Porter emphasizes that Bitcoin is a non-partisan technology and believes that both sides of the political spectrum should recognize its potential. With crypto becoming a major talking point in the presidential election, Bitcoin could serve as a bridge between Democrats and Republicans to foster future innovation. A survey by the Digital Chamber revealed that 16% of respondents would vote for a pro-crypto candidate, forming a “Crypto Voting Bloc” of around 26 million voters from both parties.
