Recent guidance from Wisconsin's Department of Financial Institutions on the state’s new money transmission law tightens oversight of Bitcoin teller machines, also known as BTMs, cryptocurrency ATMs or virtual currency kiosks. Operators of BTMs must limit transactions to $2,000 per day per user, among other requirements.
Fraudulent activity involving cryptocurrency kiosks is on the rise. Cryptocurrency ATMs, also known as “crypto kiosks”, can be found in supermarkets, convenience stores, gas stations, bars, and restaurants. Crypto ATMs look like bank ATMs and allow people to conduct cryptocurrency transactions, such as sending money to digital wallets. However, they lack sufficient consumer fraud protections. As a result, criminals are using crypto ATMs to steal hundreds of millions of dollars from Americans each year.
