New Bill May Give a Green Light to Bitcoin Exchanges in Wyoming

Fri Feb 19, 2016 3:58 pm

On 9th February, a group of Republican and Democrat representatives and senators, put forward a bill that may end the ban on Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency exchanges in the US state of Wyoming.

Despite the growing acceptance of Bitcoin as a legitimate means of transaction and the increased usage of the cryptocurrency by businesses and customers alike, in Wyoming, as of mid-2014, nearly all trading of not only Bitcoin, but all cryptocurrencies, has almost completely ceased.

A new bill, Wyoming House Bill 26, hopes to change the current situation for the better. The bill, introduced on 9th February 2016, is “A BILL for AN ACT relating to the Wyoming Money Transmitter Act; amending definitions to include digital currency as a permissive investment; and providing for an effective date.” It is being sponsored by Republicans, Rep. Tyler Lindholm, Rep. David Miller, and Sen. Cale Case, and Democrats, Rep. Charles Pelkey and Sen. Chris Rothfuss.
