A bill in New Hampshire aims to reimburse scam victims at crypto ATMs. It recently passed through the Senate and is in the House for consideration, according to a report by NHPR.

If victims report the fraud within 14 days, they can receive a full refund. Crypto ATM operators will have to hold the first deposit for 48 hours so victims can cancel it if it's a scam. They must also put in place a daily limit of $2,000.

In 2024, victims in New Hampshire lost a total of $22 million to crypto ATM scams.
