Florida Legislative Proposal to Include Bitcoin and ETFs in State and Pension Fund Investments

According to The Block, Florida legislators have launched the 2026 legislative session, aiming to include Bitcoin in the state's financial instruments portfolio.

House Bill 183, submitted to the Florida House of Representatives, would allow the state's Chief Financial Officer to invest up to 10% of designated public funds (including the General Revenue Fund, Budget Stabilization Fund, and various trust funds) in "digital assets" and ETFs. If passed, the bill would also authorize the State Board of Administration to invest up to 10% of the Florida Retirement System Trust Fund in digital assets. The bill defines digital assets as including Bitcoin, tokenized securities, and NFTs, and sets strict custody and control requirements. Assets may be held by the Chief Financial Officer, qualified custodians, or through ETFs registered with the US SEC.

HB 183 positions Bitcoin as a potential store of value and inflation hedge for state funds, and would also allow Florida residents to pay certain taxes and fees with digital assets. Currently, HB 183 is awaiting committee assignment and hearings in the House. If advanced, it would still require Senate approval and the Governor's signature to become law.
