I am considering using crypto.com, but I am concerned about its legality in New York. I have heard about regulatory issues with cryptocurrency platforms, and I want to ensure that crypto.com is operating legally in the state before I start using it. Is crypto.com legal in New York?

This is due to the exchange not obtaining the necessary BitLicense from the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS).

The BitLicense is a regulatory framework put in place by the NYDFS to oversee virtual currency businesses operating within the state.

This restriction applies specifically to New York residents and does not impact users in other states or countries.
