Michigan Lawmakers Push Forward Crypto Regulation With Four New Bills

The effort builds on previous attempts to integrate crypto into state policy. Michigan joins a growing list of states acting under a more supportive federal stance on digital currencies.

Bill HB 4510 Targets Treasury Investments in Crypto

The first bill, HB 4510, seeks to revise the “Public Employee Retirement System Investment Act.” It would allow the state treasurer to invest in digital currencies with market caps above $250 billion.

Under the bill, any crypto held by the state must be in the form of an exchange-traded product (ETP) issued by a registered investment company. This adds a layer of regulatory oversight and transparency.

Earlier in February, a separate proposal suggested allowing up to 10% of Michigan’s general and economic stabilization funds to be invested in crypto. That bill aimed to both diversify holdings and improve returns, according to reporting by The Block.
