Techub News, according to CBC, the Canadian federal government announced plans to ban cryptocurrency ATMs in its 2026 spring economic update to protect citizens from fraud. The government identified such ATMs as a "primary method" for scams. These ATMs allow users to directly purchase cryptocurrencies with cash and are often exploited by fraudsters due to their anonymity and the irreversible nature of transactions. The specific implementation timeline for this policy has not yet been determined, marking a stricter stance by Canada in the field of cryptocurrency consumer protection.
Techub News reports, according to The Block, the HB380 bill passed by the Kentucky House of Representatives had a new Section 33 amendment added during the final stages of deliberation, requiring hardware wallet providers to offer users a mechanism to reset passwords, PINs, or seed phrases. In response, the Bitcoin Policy Institute criticized this requirement as "technically impossible" for non-custodial wallets, because the design of non-custodial wallets inherently ensures that manufacturers cannot access or recover user private keys. Mandating a backdoor would undermine Bitcoin's core security guarantees and could force users to turn to centralized custodians. Furthermore, this clause also conflicts with the HB701 bill passed by Kentucky in March 2025. The latter explicitly protects users' independent control over self-custodied wallets and private keys. Currently, HB380 has passed the Kentucky House of Representatives and is under review in the Senate. Legislators still have the possibility to amend or delete this amendment before the final vote.
Techub News reports that the Minnesota Legislature is advancing the HF 3642 proposal, which seeks to legislatively prohibit the placement or operation of Virtual Currency Kiosks within the state. The bill has entered the deliberation process of the 94th Legislative Session (2025-2026) and proposes the repeal of multiple existing provisions in Chapter 53B of the 2024 Minnesota Statutes. These include regulatory requirements for kiosk operators, risk disclosure obligations, a $2,000 per transaction limit, and a 72-hour refund policy for new customers. If passed, existing cryptocurrency ATMs and related terminal equipment within Minnesota would face illegality.
Techub News reported, according to CNBC, based on data from the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), losses from cryptocurrency ATM scams reached $240 million in the first half of 2025, approximately double the number of similar scam cases in 2024. Currently, Spokane, Washington has implemented a comprehensive ban on the installation of crypto ATMs, making it one of the first cases of such a ban in the United States. Furthermore, multiple states across the U.S. are tightening regulations or discussing restrictive measures, including Arizona, Arkansas, Vermont, and St. Paul, Minnesota, which are also considering following Spokane's lead with a comprehensive ban.
