Maine settles for $1.9M to refund consumers defrauded via Bitcoin Depot kiosks (2022–2025).
Maine has reached a $1.9 million settlement with Bitcoin Depot to refund consumers defrauded through cryptocurrency kiosks between 2022 and 2025.
Scammers tricked victims into depositing cash into Bitcoin Depot ATMs and transferring the resulting cryptocurrency to unhosted digital wallets they controlled.
The funds, recovered under new state laws limiting fees, transaction amounts, and requiring consumer wallet control, will be distributed to eligible Maine residents who used the kiosks during that period.
Claims must be filed online by April 1, 2026, with refunds expected to begin in May.
The settlement marks a major step in combating crypto-related fraud, though Bitcoin Depot no longer operates kiosks in the state.
