AI Summary
This bill expands the definition of "money transmission services" under Michigan's Money Transmission Services Act to include the ownership, operation, facilitation, solicitation, marketing, or advertising of a virtual currency kiosk, which is a machine that allows users to buy or sell virtual currency. The bill also clarifies that a "payment instrument," such as a check or money order, includes any closed-loop prepaid access device or vehicle, regardless of whether it is negotiable. These changes aim to bring virtual currency kiosks under the same regulatory framework as traditional money transmitters, ensuring greater oversight and consumer protection in the evolving financial landscape.
