New Hampshire passed Senate Bill 482 introducing restrictions on cryptocurrency ATMs to combat fraud, including refund policies, transaction limits, identity verification, and a waiting period. The new law, effective December 16, is seen as a first step by officials and law enforcement to protect residents, especially seniors, from scams tied to these machines.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

New Hampshire’s rules requiring crypto ATM operators to refund fraud victims and verify identities open compliance gates and raise entry costs for kiosk operators. You must adapt your product or sales approach if you rely on crypto ATM channels or prevention services for seniors in the US market.
