The California State Assembly has officially introduced AB-1052, a bill aimed at clarifying the self-custody rights of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

The regulation also aims to prevent public institutions from imposing payment restrictions and prohibits public officials from issuing, sponsoring, or promoting any digital assets, securities, or commodities.

The bill titled "Bitcoin Rights" was presented by Member of Parliament Juan Carrillo Valencia, who chairs the Banking and Finance Committee. The introduction of the bill was confirmed by a statement made by the non-profit advocacy group Satoshi Action Fund on the social media platform X.

Council Member Valencia stated, "We are proud to officially announce that 'Bitcoin Rights' have been introduced by the Chair of Banking and Finance in the California Assembly. When this law is passed, the self-custody rights of approximately 40 million Americans will be protected!"

AB-1052 outlines several key provisions designed to strengthen protections for digital asset users. Foremost among these is the clear affirmation of the right to self-custody of Bitcoin and other digital assets.

An important aspect that stands out in the legislation is the framework for the management of ownerless digital assets. According to the guidelines of the proposal, such assets will be handled by licensed custodians instead of being left in administrative uncertainty.

Another important aspect of AB-1052 is the amendment it made to the Political Reform Act of 1974. The proposed amendment would prevent public officials from issuing, supporting, or promoting digital assets, securities, or commodities.
