[New Hampshire HB639 Finalized, Establishing Legal Protections for Digital Assets]
New Hampshire House Bill HB639 was finalized on July 1. The bill stipulates that state and local governments may not restrict individuals from using digital assets for payments, self-custody of assets, or impose additional taxes. Individuals or businesses operating nodes, mining, or staking do not require a money transmitter license, and such activities are not considered the issuance or sale of securities. The bill authorizes the state Supreme Court to establish a blockchain dispute court to handle civil cases. The bill will take effect 60 days after its passage.
