Ellman passes law to protect crypto consumers

SPRINGFIELD – Crypto kiosk scams are on the rise, and fraudsters are targeting consumers using kiosks to steal Illinoisans hard-earned savings. Taking the lead to combat these scammers, State Senator Laura Ellman’s cryptocurrency scam prevention measure, establishing strong protections, has been signed into law.

“With robust scam prevention measures, like posting clear disclosures on kiosks and implementing protections to keep new users from losing out on hundreds of thousands of dollars, this law will ensure cryptocurrency practices follow the same standards statewide,” said Ellman (D-Naperville). “We’re prioritizing consumer protections in Illinois and upholding a clear standard for the future of virtual currency.”

With the growing number of cryptocurrency kiosks across the state, Ellman’s law places vital regulations on digital asset kiosks in Illinois. The law requires virtual currency kiosk operators to register with the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation by July 1, 2027.
