Is buying bitcoin with Google Pay legal in Alaska?

Bitcoin is legal in Alaska. The Division of Banking and Securities, inside the Department of Commerce, Community, and Economic Development, regulates money transmission, and regulatory amendments adopted in 2022 pulled virtual currency inside the licensing perimeter effective January 1, 2023. Before that change, crypto companies operated under limited licensing agreements stating that their licenses did not cover virtual currency. Federal FinCEN registration and anti-money-laundering rules apply on top of the state regime.
