According to The Block, on Wednesday (July 9), New Hampshire's Executive Council voted 3-2 to reject a $100 million bitcoin-collateralized bond proposal. The rejected proposal would have allowed the New Hampshire Business Finance Authority to issue taxable conduit revenue bonds for CleanSpark, a bitcoin mining and data center company, with approximately $160 million in bitcoin as collateral. BitGo was designated as custodian for the segregated bitcoin holdings, with automatic liquidation triggered if collateral value fell below $140 million. State Representative Keith Ammon criticized the decision as "short-sighted," saying it would reduce future revenue opportunities for the Business Finance Authority and hinder economic growth.
