Opinion | Biden Took New Hampshire for ‘Granite’
Joe Biden is running as if he were unopposed for the Democratic presidential nomination, but he may face a comeuppance in New Hampshire. In the name of “diversity,” the Democratic National Committee demoted the Granite State from its traditional status as the first-in-the-nation primary in favor of South Carolina, where Mr. Biden’s 2020 campaign took flight.
New Hampshire decided to hold its primary on Jan. 23 anyway, much to the DNC’s chagrin. The state won’t allocate any convention delegates, and the DNC insists that makes the primary “meaningless.” But it could prove an early measure of the incumbent’s weakness. Mr. Biden decided not to put his name on the ballot, forcing allies to run a write-in campaign against Rep. Dean Phillips and self-help author Marianne Williamson.

New Hampshire is poised to approve the world’s first Bitcoin-backed municipal bond, valued at $100 million, according to social media reports. The bond is designed as a conduit bond with no taxpayer funds at risk, using over-collateralized Bitcoin held by BitGo Trust to secure the repayment. The bond’s innovative structure and potential implications for crypto-backed public debt have attracted attention, with Moody’s assigning it a provisional Ba2 rating. The bond, conceptualized by Wave Digital Assets in collaboration with Rosemawr Management, awaits final approval from the Governor and Executive Council. The market’s response to this development could influence Bitcoin’s future price expectations.
Key Takeaways
- The announcement suggests a significant step in integrating Bitcoin into traditional financial structures.
- Market participants appear to interpret this development as potentially increasing institutional confidence in Bitcoin.
- The bond’s approval could lead to a moderate increase in the odds of Bitcoin reaching higher price targets.
What to Watch
The final decision from the Governor and Executive Council in New Hampshire will be a key indicator of the bond’s impact. Observers may look for potential shifts in institutional adoption of Bitcoin as a collateral asset. Any further developments or official announcements regarding the bond’s pricing date could influence market expectations related to Bitcoin’s future valuation.
