Is bitcoin legal in Armenia?
Bitcoin is legal in Armenia and now formally regulated. The Law on Crypto-Assets, adopted in 2025 and in force since July 2025, made Armenia the first South Caucasus country with a standalone crypto framework: service providers need a Central Bank of Armenia license, and firms already operating have until January 31, 2027 to obtain one. Companion rules push crypto transactions onto non-cash channels, and operating without a license can carry penalties up to criminal liability.
