Michigan could soon launch its own cryptocurrency, “Michcoin,” backed by gold and silver reserves under a new proposal from state Rep. Alabas Farhat , D-Dearborn. The digital currency would be managed by a Michigan Bullion Depository and aims to offer residents a secure, innovative alternative to traditional money while boosting financial stability.

In a statement to TCD News, Farhat said, “This is about giving Michiganders more control over their financial future. With Michcoin, we’re combining the stability of gold and silver with the innovation of cryptocurrency to create a system that works for everyone, not just big financial institutions.”

The bill, introduced Nov. 26, hasn’t had its first hearing yet. If approved, Michcoin would expand the state’s growing interest in cryptocurrency. Michigan’s pension system already holds $18 million in cryptocurrency funds, though that represents a small part of its $20.2 billion portfolio. Details on how Michcoin would be used are still unclear.

On this day 21 years ago, Iraqi Americans in Dearborn celebrated along Warren Avenue near Greenfield after the capture of Saddam Hussein.

Saddam Hussein was captured on December 13, 2003, by U.S. forces during Operation Red Dawn, found hiding in a small underground bunker near his hometown of Tikrit, Iraq.
