Frequently asked questions
Which exchanges accept PayPal in Wyoming?
Of the 8 exchanges serving Wyoming, Coinbase, Kraken, Gemini accept PayPal for funding purchases.
Is buying bitcoin with PayPal legal in Wyoming?
Bitcoin is legal in Wyoming, the state that has gone furthest to accommodate it. HB 19, signed March 5, 2018, exempts virtual currency from the Wyoming Money Transmitter Act, so exchanges need no state license, and the special purpose depository institution (SPDI) charter created in 2019, supervised by the Wyoming Division of Banking, lets crypto companies operate as full-reserve banks. Kraken Financial received the first SPDI charter in September 2020. Federal FinCEN registration still applies to exchanges.
