Good afternoon, I'm considering setting up a
cryptocurrency exchange in Connecticut. Could you please advise if I need a specific license or permit to operate such a business in the state? I understand the cryptocurrency market is highly regulated and I want to ensure I comply with all the necessary legal requirements. What are the key steps I should take to obtain the necessary licenses and permissions, and are there any specific regulations or laws that I should be aware of in Connecticut? Thank you for your assistance in this matter.
