Money transmitter licensing is a legal requirement for businesses that facilitate the transfer of funds on behalf of consumers to obtain specific licenses from state or national regulatory authorities. In the digital asset sector, this applies to exchanges, wallet providers, and other services that handle the movement of cryptocurrencies or fiat currency conversions. It ensures adherence to anti-money laundering and consumer protection statutes.
