Far-right extremist Senator Wendy Rogers has introduced a bill into the Arizona State Senate to add bitcoin as “legal tender” for Arizona.

Critics of previous proposals have pointed out that the declaration of bitcoin as legal tender potentially violates constitutional limitations on states’ ability to issue their own money.

Rogers’ bitcoin bill continues the trend of far right figures endorsing the cryptocurrency, including self-proclaimed dictator Nayib Bukele. El Salvador’s future is staked on the success of Bitcoin — and it’s not going well.
