Bitcoin in North Carolina: the licensing picture

LegalMoney transmitter license, virtual currency defined in statuteState guide reviewed 2026-08-23

Bitcoin is legal in North Carolina. Custodial exchanges are licensed by the North Carolina Commissioner of Banks under the Money Transmitters Act, and the office publishes an FAQ distinguishing virtual currency transmitters, which need a license, from exchangers selling their own stock, which generally do not. The framework dates to a 2016 amendment that was among the first state statutes anywhere to name virtual currency.
