LegalMTMA license, virtual currency named since 2023State guide reviewed 2026-08-23

Bitcoin is legal in Minnesota. The Department of Commerce licenses money transmitters under the Minnesota Money Transmission Modernization Act, signed May 24, 2023 and codified in Statutes Chapter 53B, which expressly covers virtual currency business activity. A 2024 law layered consumer protections onto virtual currency kiosks effective August 1, 2024. Federal FinCEN registration and IRS tax treatment apply on top, as in every state.
