sorry for slow response. in answer to the question, I would put the chances of the bill's passage into law at about 40 percent this year. It has now passed the committee unanimously , which means it will likely pass the full House. But it then has to pass the senate and then get not-vetoed by the governor. that's three more total hurdles, most bills get stopped somewhere along this process but there is no clear opposition to crypto in the NH elected government. I would assume some of the bureaucracies must be against it since they'd have to do some work to implement crypto acceptance.
I don't know if they would have to do much of anything. They'll be using a merchant services company which will take the crypto, convert it to USD and then into the State bank account. I don't think the State of NH would be running a BTC wallet.
