The Office of the State Bank Commissioner's guidance MT 2014-01, first issued June 6, 2014 and most recently updated January 2, 2025, holds that decentralized cryptocurrencies are not money or monetary value under the Kansas Money Transmission Act, so pure crypto-to-crypto activity needs no state license, while exchanges that transmit dollars for Kansas customers do need an OSBC money transmitter license. Federal FinCEN registration requirements apply regardless of the state analysis.
