Quebec

Crypto mining operations of mining firm Bitfarms are still expanding despite complaints about the noise moved by residents of the city.

The Chief Scientist of Quebec, who advises policy makers on scientific matters, released a statement saying that concerns over the criminality of Bitcoin are overblown.

Businesses operating a digital currency automated teller machine (ATM) or an exchange platform in Quebec must obtain the appropriate license from the financial regulator, the Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF), in accordance to the Money-Services Businesses Act.
