Vancouver approves Bitcoin-friendly-city study
Vancouver's council advances a motion to study Bitcoin payments and diversification of city financial reserves.
On December 11, 2024, Vancouver approves Bitcoin-friendly-city study. Vancouver's council advances a motion to study Bitcoin payments and diversification of city financial reserves.
The council motion directed work on becoming a 'Bitcoin Friendly City,' including examination of reserve diversification and payment possibilities. It was an exploratory municipal mandate, not an actual Bitcoin reserve purchase.
It documents a concrete expansion of how people or institutions could use Bitcoin rather than a statement of future intent alone.
