Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has officially signed HF 3709, a bill that allows banks and credit unions in the state to offer cryptocurrency custody services. The bill will take effect on August 1, 2026. According to the bill's requirements, financial institutions must develop written policies covering risk management, internal controls, and security measures, and submit written notice to the state commissioner of commerce at least 60 days before providing custody services. The bill specifically emphasizes that customer assets must be strictly segregated from the institution's own assets.One of the main authors of the bill, Representative Bernie Perryman, stated that this move aims to allow local financial institutions to "grow alongside their customers," preventing residents from being forced to rely on unregulated out-of-state or offshore providers. The Minnesota Credit Union Network stated that this legislation provides residents with a "safer way to manage crypto assets" and strengthens protections against risks such as fraud and hacking through regulation. With this, Minnesota becomes another state, following New York, Wyoming, and Virginia, that allows banks to offer crypto custody services.Meanwhile, earlier this month, the state also enacted another bill (SF 3868) that bans cryptocurrency ATMs. Starting August 1, the state cannot install new cryptocurrency ATMs, and existing machines must be removed by December 31. As a result, Bitcoin ATM operator Bitcoin Depot has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and initiated business liquidation this Monday.
