Bitcoin in Rhode Island: the licensing picture
Bitcoin is legal in Rhode Island. House Bill 5847, signed in July 2019, renamed the state's old sale-of-checks statute the Currency Transmission law and wrote virtual currency into it, so platforms that take control of bitcoin for Rhode Islanders, whether to exchange it or transfer it, need a license from the Department of Business Regulation's Division of Banking. Later amendments extended the same money transmitter licensing requirement to virtual currency kiosk operators. Federal law, including FinCEN registration for exchanges, applies on top.
