Texas is set to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve, allowing the state to accept Bitcoin donations, fees, and taxes, with a five-year holding requirement. This initiative, announced by Rep. Giovanni Capriglione, aims to combat inflation and enhance the state's financial strategy, following similar moves by Pennsylvania. Meanwhile, the presale of the meme coin Crypto All-Stars ($STARS) has gained traction, raising over $15.3 million ahead of its launch, benefiting from the recent Bitcoin rally.
