New Hampshire adds safeguards at crypto ATMs

A cash-to-crypto kiosk can make a digital-asset purchase feel quick and simple, but the same speed can complicate a decision when someone is being pressured or scammed. New Hampshire is preparing new rules for cryptocurrency ATMs that take effect Dec. 16. The changes include transaction limits, a delay before a first transaction and a process for refunds when a transaction is tied to fraud.

Those details matter for residents who use kiosks to send money or buy cryptocurrency: a pause and a clear path to seek a refund could make a difference when a payment request raises red flags. NorthEast News is tracking what the rules will mean for users and operators across the state.
