Arizona Governor Vetoes Two Crypto Bills, Signs One Targeting ATM Fraud

Arizona’s governor just played regulatory whack-a-mole—vetoing two cryptocurrency bills while signing legislation targeting Bitcoin ATM scams. The move leaves crypto innovators in limbo but throws a bone to fraud-weary consumers.


Mixed signals for crypto adoption

The vetoed bills would’ve provided clearer rules for blockchain businesses. Meanwhile, the signed law forces crypto ATM operators to verify identities—because apparently, financial crime still exists when digital assets meet physical kiosks.


Wall Street won’t care (but they’ll pretend to)

Traditional finance will clutch its pearls over this ’wild west’ moment—right before launching another tokenized security product with 200% hidden fees.
