Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, viewed as an early favorite for the Republican 2024 presidential nomination (should Donald Trump not run again), is doing some early work to reach the Bitcoin demographic.
At a signing ceremony Tuesday for a bill to mandate high school financial literacy classes, DeSantis said: "I've told the state agencies to figure out ways where if a business wants to pay tax in cryptocurrency to Florida, we should be willing to accept that."
He added: "We will accept Bitcoin, we're working on doing that, for payments in the state of Florida."
Florida's largest city, Miami, has been active on the cryptocurrency front. Under the leadership of Mayor Francis Suarez, Miami has actively courted crypto firms to South Florida, most notably Blockchain.com. Crypto exchange FTX has also planted a flag there, last year securing naming rights to the Miami Heat arena. Suarez has even been taking some of his pay in Bitcoin, and the city is studying the possibility of paying state workers in BTC as well.
Prior to that, the Seminole County Tax Office, which covers the Orlando area, began accepting cryptocurrency payments in 2018 via BitPay. That deal turned somewhat sour after the county tax collector, who later was caught up in a Justice Department probe into sex trafficking involving Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz, pleaded guilty to using county funds to start his own blockchain company.
But the state government has mostly been along for the ride, ceding potential territory to states such as Wyoming and Colorado, which boast a proactive legislature and pro-crypto governor, respectively. Wyoming passed a slew of blockchain-friendly laws back in 2019, which are starting to bear fruit. Several crypto custodial firms have secured state banking charters there—the first in the U.S.
Governor Jared Polis has made Colorado one of the country's leading crypto states by supporting ETH Denver and blockchain initiatives ranging from fishing licenses to cattle tracking. His popularity has set off rumors about Polis becoming the next Democratic nominee for President. Is he interested?
Colorado Governor Jared Polis, not wanting to lose the rivalry with his state's neighbor to the north, helped pass a provision allowing Coloradans to pay taxes in crypto by the end of this year. He said the plan is to expand that to other state fees and licenses—though it won't hold any crypto assets it receives, instead converting them to dollars.
With plenty of new crypto firms coming to the state thanks to Suarez's efforts, it makes sense for Florida to do the same.
Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon distanced himself Wednesday from a failed effort by legislators in his state to establish a Bitcoin reserve, emphasizing he’s focused on more practical crypto initiatives. “Wyoming has been pretty methodical in how we approach this,” Gordon told Decrypt at the DC Blockchain Summit. “Bitcoin has been incredibly volatile.” “It’s been a bit of a learning curve,” he added, regarding legislators’ approach to bold initiatives like the Bitcoin reserve. Back in January, Wyom...
The state of Wyoming is gearing up to launch its long-planned stablecoin in the coming months, Governor Mark Gordon said at the DC Blockchain Summit on Wednesday, with the state eyeing a potential July debut following a period of testing. The stablecoin, which was first proposed via a state bill in February 2022, will be powered by LayerZero and be usable across multiple chains, including Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, and the Ethereum scaling networks Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, and Optimism. “We ar...
Crypto-based prediction marketplace Polymarket apologized on its Discord server for what it described as an “unprecedented situation,” after users flagged apparent manipulation of market results by UMA whales. UMA is Polymarket’s oracle system whereby the results of betting markets are determined by recourse to external sources of data, and by staking UMA tokens behind a particular resolution. For example, if there were a market that allowed users to predict whether the sun would rise tomorrow,...
