Texas Passes Amendment to Include Digital Currency in State Bill of Rights

On May 11th, Texas lawmakers passed an amendment to the state's Bill of Rights which guarantees the right to own, hold, and utilize digital currency. The bill affirms the right of individuals to engage in trade and contractual agreements using different mediums of exchange, including digital currency. If passed and signed into law, this update to the Texas Bill of Rights will not only protect existing fundamental rights but also grant residents the explicit right to utilize cryptocurrencies. The Texas Constitutional Enforcement group argues that incorporating digital currency into the Texas Bill of Rights plays a vital role in preserving the financial privacy of Texas residents and preventing dependence on global financial elites.
