ME News message, April 1 (UTC+8), according to Bloomberg, the New Hampshire Office of Business and Economic Affairs in the United States plans to issue municipal bonds backed by Bitcoin, with a total size of about $100 million. The product has been assigned a Ba2 rating by Moody’s Investors Service (two notches below investment grade). The principal and interest on the bonds will be paid from funds generated by Bitcoin-collateralized assets; it is designed to provide additional returns when the Bitcoin price rises, and it also includes price-triggered liquidation provisions to safeguard repayment. Related debt is not supported by the creditworthiness or taxes of the state government. (Source: ChainCatcher)
