New Hampshire strengthens legal protections for crypto assets, governor signs HB 639 bill

Bitcoin News posted on the X platform that New Hampshire Governor Kelly Ayotte has signed HB 639 into law to strengthen legal protections for Bitcoin and digital assets.

The law protects self-custody rights, prohibits state and local governments from restricting the use of blockchain, prohibits the imposition of special taxes on cryptocurrency purchases, exempts miners from currency transfer licensing requirements, and establishes specialized court dockets for blockchain disputes. This measure further consolidates legal certainty for Bitcoin users, miners, and the broader digital asset industry.
