New Hampshire Lawmakers to Hold Hearing on $100 Million Bitcoin Bond on Wednesday

CoinFeed July 8 news, according to Cointelegraph, the New Hampshire Business Finance Authority (BFA) is scheduled to hold a public hearing on Wednesday on issuing $100 million in Bitcoin-backed bonds. The plan was approved by the BFA in November 2025 and requires final approval from the governor and the five-member Executive Council. The bonds are collateralized by private borrower CleanSpark, with no recourse to state funds or taxpayers. Moody's gave the bonds a preliminary Ba2 rating (speculative grade) in March. New Hampshire is the first state to pass a strategic Bitcoin reserve law, allowing 5% of public funds to be invested in digital assets.
