The Connecticut Banking Commissioner summarily suspends Bitcoin Depot Operating LLC’s money transmission license and issues temporary cease-and-desist, restitution, and disgorgement orders due to violations of the Money Transmission Act. The Commissioner finds that the Respondent failed to maintain the required $1,000,000 minimum tangible net worth, charged fees exceeding the 15% statutory limit on virtual currency kiosks, and failed to provide full refunds for fraudulent transactions. Additionally, the Respondent is cited for lacking adequate anti-money laundering and know-your-customer controls, failing to collect consumer addresses, and issuing receipts that omitted required disclosures.
