Is bitcoin legal in American Samoa?
Bitcoin is legal in American Samoa. As a US territory, it falls under federal law: exchanges must register with FinCEN as money services businesses, and virtual currency has been within that framework since FinCEN's 2013 guidance. The territory has passed no cryptocurrency legislation of its own, so the federal rulebook is the whole picture.
