"He's a great innovator and Wyoming is the perfect state for innovation," Senator Cynthia Lummis told Yahoo Finance in an interview published on Friday.

She added: "We want to make sure that we have a place for people who understand the benefits of Bitcoin to locate their business."

After Musk announced Tesla's $1.5 billion investment in bitcoin, the cryptocurrency skyrocketed, breaking above $48,000 for the first time.

On February 8, after Tesla's announcement, Lummis sent an invitation to Musk via Twitter. She said Wyoming was "one of the most business friendly states in the nation."

"Ever think about relocating?" Lummis added.

She told Yahoo Finance reporter Jessica Smith that she hadn't heard back from Musk but that she was "dying to have a dialogue with him."

On Thursday, Lummis, a member of the Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Committee, said on Twitter that the cryptocurrency had great potential for savers and described it as an "appreciating (or at least stable) asset."

"Congress' lack of fiscal discipline is largely responsible for debasing our currency," she added.

Lummis in January became the first incoming senator to hold bitcoin. At the time, she said she planned to hold her investment for the long term.

Lummis told Yahoo Finance Wyoming was a great place for cryptocurrency holders like Tesla because it had "special depository financial institutions that were created specifically to transact business and hold deposits in bitcoin."

Senate count. Trump found not guilty. Democrats found to be guilty.

Good show trial, especially Trump's lawyer.

Counting underway... result in a minute...

Biden irrelevant, Trump still filling the news.

57 to 43

Democrats are such idiots. Evil criminal idiots. A wild generalisation but generally true. A silly show trial which was good for Trump. Fine people hoax shown to be a lie by inciting media and senile Biden. So it was good to get that out.

Best of all and great for USA was the Viking leader who sat in the chair. Great theatre. Only in America. Imagine that in China, let alone North Korea. The USA is great and that's why. People can do that. The policeman spoke to him sensibly and reasonably = come on mate, you are in the citadel of our country. Viking "Yes. Isnt it a great country that I can dress up and protest without everyone losing their minds".

A medal for the Viking.

Jail for the Trump-hating BLM (burn loot murder) Brazilian black police man who shot and murdered the unarmed white woman. Horribly ironically Trump awarded said murderer a medal for failing to defend somebody else but being present.
