Last March, Gov. Ron DeSantis proposed integrating cryptocurrency into the state’s financial operations. He advocated for provisions in the 2022-23 budget that would allow businesses to use cryptocurrency for state fees and also suggested pilot programs to incorporate blockchain technology into administrative processes for the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, as well as for Medicaid transactions.

“I actually had some money in the budget the legislature didn’t pick up to try to do some experiment with blockchain technology on some of the state functions,” DeSantis said at the time.
