bitFlyer also revealed that Connecticut residents may create an account and start interacting with the crypto economy right away, taking advantage of a fiat onramp to buy cryptocurrencies with credit or debit card.

Users are free to choose whether to trade via their web browser or the bitFlyer mobile application, available for iOS and Android. They can also build a digital asset portfolio by scheduling daily, weekly, monthly, or semi-monthly purchases.”
Speaking about the expansion, bitFlyer COO, Joel Edgerton, stated:
“bitFlyer USA is happy to continue our expansion by adding Connecticut as our 48th state. We have achieved significant growth in our business this year and look forward to bringing our global platform to Connecticut residents.”
