According to Bitcoin Magazine, Texas State Representative Ron Reynolds has introduced House Bill 815 (HB 815), which would allow each city or county in the state to invest up to $10 million of public funds in Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. This cap applies individually to each city and county rather than being a shared statewide pool. The report noted that the bill has not yet been referred to a committee and, if enacted into law, is slated to take effect on September 1, 2027.
