Binance founder and former CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) has warned that the window for investors to buy bitcoin before government entities do is rapidly closing. In a post shared on May 8 via social media platform X, Zhao stated:

You can buy while governments are buying or after they have bought. The ‘before’ option is disappearing.

Zhao’s comment came after Arizona became the second U.S. state to enact a law establishing a strategic bitcoin reserve. His remark coincided with a series of policy developments in the United States and globally, as governments increasingly move to formalize strategic bitcoin holdings.

In a landmark move, New Hampshire has become the first U.S. state to enact a strategic bitcoin reserve policy. Following suit, Arizona passed House Bill 2749, establishing a reserve fund for unclaimed digital assets like staking rewards and airdrops. Meanwhile, Texas is advancing Senate Bill 21, which has cleared both the Senate and a House committee, aiming to create a state-managed bitcoin reserve focused on high-market-cap cryptocurrencies.

States are increasingly adopting digital assets in fiscal strategies, with bitcoin seen as a hedge against inflation and a diversification tool. The movement gained momentum after President Donald Trump signed an executive order to create a national bitcoin reserve and broader cryptocurrency stockpile.

The former Binance CEO now advises governments on crypto policy and reserves, helping nations like Pakistan and Kyrgyzstan integrate digital assets and blockchain into public systems. His input supports efforts to diversify national reserves with assets like bitcoin and BNB, aligning with global trends in crypto adoption. Despite concerns over volatility, supporters say bitcoin can protect against financial instability and enhance monetary sovereignty in a digital economy.
