Frequently asked questions

Which exchanges accept ACH transfer in Texas?

Of the 7 exchanges serving Texas, Coinbase, Gemini, River, Swan Bitcoin, Strike accept ACH transfer for funding purchases.

Is buying bitcoin with ACH transfer legal in Texas?

Bitcoin is legal in Texas, and the state stands out for what it does not require. Under the Department of Banking's Supervisory Memorandum 1037, first issued in 2014 as the earliest state-level position on bitcoin and revised January 28, 2025, exchanging decentralized virtual currency such as bitcoin for sovereign currency is not money transmission under the Money Services Modernization Act, so plain bitcoin exchange carries no dedicated state license. Stablecoin activity is scrutinized more closely, and federal FinCEN rules apply everywhere.
