[Indiana Legislator Proposes Including Bitcoin in Pension Plans and Blocking Rules Restricting Cryptocurrency Usage] According to Decrypt, an Indiana legislator introduced a bill on Thursday aimed at expanding access to digital assets for the state's savers while preventing local governments from enacting rules that could restrict cryptocurrency usage. The bill mandates that retirement and savings plans used by public employees must offer cryptocurrency ETFs as investment options. Additionally, the bill seeks to limit local governments from creating rules that 'unreasonably' restrict the use of digital assets in payments, cryptocurrency mining, or personal protection of digital assets. The bill has been submitted to the Indiana House Financial Institutions Committee.
