Fewer Cryptocurrency Kiosks in Wisconsin

(Wisconsin Radio Network) You may have noticed fewer cryptocurrency kiosks in Wisconsin following a recent state law restricting their use.

According to the Wisconsin Radio Network, Wisconsin Consumer Protection director Mike Domke says it’s not surprising, given that their primary use was fraud. Domke says crypto currency booths became yet another method for scammers to get people to send them money, given that the industry is unregulated and any money transferred is likely unrecoverable.

The new law requires warnings about possibly being scammed to be posted when you start a transaction with the device, and to restrict their daily use to just one thousand dollars.
