- Nebraska has passed a law for crypto ATMs marking its entry into the crypto regulatory landscape.
- Several US states in the past months have been shifting their perspectives towards the sector.
The US regulatory sector is the prime of activity in 2025. Numerous advancements, bills passed, and laws enforced suggest that the nation is preparing for a boom in the crypto industry. While leading states made the initial steps, others are now paving the way for their citizens to join the digital assets community.
Notably, the state of Nebraska announced in the past day that it would initiate the first step in joining the crypto regulatory landscape. According to a statement released roughly 12 hours ago, the state plans to introduce new rules for crypto ATM operators.
Furthermore, the bill “LB609” was signed by Governor Jim Pillen into law, which as aforementioned elucidates the regulations. In compliance with this law, operators must now hold licenses and disclose fees to the government. Additionally, they are also required to instill anti-fraud protective measures.
In the statement, Jim Pillen said:
“Cryptocurrency is an important, emerging industry — and we’ve been working hard to build Nebraska into a cryptocurrency leader,”
He further discussed how the officials didn’t want criminals to be taking advantage of Nebraskans. Additionally, the state also plans to lay the groundwork for a safe and robust crypto industry.
The past few months have been in stark contrast to the previous year within the crypto regulatory landscape. While several complications regarding the SEC arose, the growth of the sector was greatly obscured by regulatory scrutiny.
Moreover, the lack of clarity in both community members and regulators caused a lot of uncertainty in compliance. On the other hand, after the recent shift in administration, President Donald Trump has incorporated several crypto experts into the regulatory bodies.
Subsequently, this has led to increased transparency between the government and crypto-based organizations and has fostered the growth of the crypto regulatory landscape. This past week has seen several state governments making advancements within the sector.
