Bitcoin in Arizona: the licensing picture
Bitcoin is legal in Arizona. The Department of Insurance and Financial Institutions (DIFI) licenses money transmitters under Title 6, Chapter 12 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, a chapter rewritten in 2022 by SB 1580 to adopt the multistate Money Transmission Modernization Act. Custodial exchanges serving Arizonans operate under that license; individuals buying or holding bitcoin need nothing beyond an account with a licensed platform.
