Minnesota senator proposes Bitcoin Act after going from skeptic to believer

Minnesota state Senator Jeremy Miller has introduced the Minnesota Bitcoin Act, which he drafted after completely changing his stance on Bitcoin.

“As I do more research on cryptocurrency and hear from more and more constituents, I’ve gone from being highly skeptical to learning more about it, to believing in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies,” Miller said in a March 18 statement.

Miller said the bill aims to “promote prosperity” for Minnesotans by allowing the Minnesota State Board of Investment to invest state assets in Bitcoin (BTC) and other cryptocurrencies, just as it invests in traditional assets.

Several other US states have introduced similar Bitcoin-buying bills, with 23 states having introduced legislation to create a Bitcoin reserve, according to Bitcoin Laws.

A total of 39 different bills related to state investments in Bitcoin have been introduced across 23 US states. Source:

EOS Network rebrands to Vaulta in shift to Web3 banking

The EOS Network, a blockchain that launched in 2018 amid the initial coin offering boom, has rebranded to Vaulta and will pivot to focusing on Web3 banking.

Hacker breaks into AI crypto bot aixbt’s dashboard to snatch 55 ETH

An attacker has breached the dashboard of an artificial intelligence crypto bot and made two prompts for it to transfer 55.5 Ether, worth $106,200, from its wallet, sparking concerns about the security of AI agents in crypto.

In a March 18 X post, “rxbt” — the maintainer of the bot called “aixbt,” which commentates on the market — said its core systems weren’t impacted, and the breach wasn’t the result of manipulating the AI.

“We’ve migrated servers, swapped keys, paused dashboard access for security upgrades, and reported hacker addresses to exchanges,” rxbt added.
