A regulatory exemption for digital currency traders in New Hampshire is set to take effect next week.

As reported last month by CoinDesk, New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu signed HB 436 on June 2, which excludes "persons conducting business using transactions conducted in whole or in part in virtual currency" from the state's money services rules. The measure was first introduced in January.

According to the text of the bill, which was finalized in late April, the new rules take place on August 1, or next Tuesday.

The measure won plaudits from the state's bitcoin community, though state officials, including those from its chief financial regulator, blasted the then-proposed law in hearings before the legislature. The bill was sponsored by Rep. Barbara Biggie, with Rep. Keith Ammon co-sponsoring the measure.

When it came time for votes, both the House of Representatives as well as the Senate displayed a somewhat divided view on the bill, clearing it by votes of 185-170 and 13-10, respectively.

Ultimately, the new rules highlight how New Hampshire has taken a largely different approach to its regulation of digital currencies. Other states, from New Hampshire to Washington, have opted for tighter controls on those who trade or handle digital currencies on behalf of customers.

KuCoin Hits Record Market Share as 2025 Volumes Outpace Crypto Market

16:9 Image

KuCoin captured a record share of centralised exchange volume in 2025, with more than $1.25tn traded as its volumes grew faster than the wider crypto market.

Yang perlu diketahui:

  • KuCoin recorded over $1.25 trillion in total trading volume in 2025, equivalent to an average of roughly $114 billion per month, marking its strongest year on record.
  • This performance translated into an all-time high share of centralised exchange volume, as KuCoin’s activity expanded faster than aggregate CEX volumes, which slowed during periods of lower market volatility.
  • Spot and derivatives volumes were evenly split, each exceeding $500 billion for the year, signalling broad-based usage rather than reliance on a single product line.
  • Altcoins accounted for the majority of trading activity, reinforcing KuCoin’s role as a primary liquidity venue beyond BTC and ETH at a time when majors saw more muted turnover.
  • Even as overall crypto volumes softened mid-year, KuCoin maintained elevated baseline activity, indicating structurally higher user engagement rather than short-lived volume spikes.

How a 'perpetual’ stock trick could solve Michael Saylor’s $8 billion debt problem

The bitcoin treasury firm is using perpetual preferreds to retire convertibles, offering a potential framework for managing long-dated leverage.

Yang perlu diketahui:

  • Strive upsized its SATA follow on offering beyond $150 million, pricing the perpetual preferred at $90.
  • The structure offers a blueprint for replacing fixed maturity convertibles with perpetual equity capital that removes refinancing risk.
  • Strategy has a $3 billion convertible tranche due in June 2028 with a $672.40 conversion price, which could be addressed using a similar preferred equity approach.
