New Hampshire Senate Committee Delays Cryptocurrency Mining Bill

According to Odaily, the New Hampshire Senate Commerce Committee has postponed the advancement of a bill aimed at easing regulations on cryptocurrency mining due to internal disagreements. Several senators noted a significant increase in public feedback since the last discussion. The committee failed to reach a consensus in two rounds of voting, ultimately deciding by a 4-2 vote to refer the bill for 'interim study' for further examination. The proposed legislation, House Bill 639, seeks to prohibit local governments from imposing additional restrictions on crypto mining activities, such as electricity or noise limits, and to prevent state or local governments from levying special taxes on digital assets.
