Section 1960 of Title 18 U.S. Code requires money transmitting businesses to be licensed, with implications for crypto. The PATRIOT Act strengthened enforcement by removing the need to prove specific intent to operate unlicensed. Key for crypto businesses: Control over transmitted funds is a crucial factor in determining liability. The law's application to digital assets remains complex, with courts and regulators still working to establish clear guidelines.

Compliance takeaway: Crypto businesses handling user funds should prioritize proper licensing and registration. The stakes are high - violations can result in criminal penalties, regardless of whether operators knew about licensing requirements.
