summary
Wyoming reports 13 laws in 15 months that carve out crypto-friendly rules: exchanges need not register in-state, there are no crypto taxes in Wyoming, and LLC/series LLC structures keep minimal state-collected data. State considers a safe-harbor for open-source developers after FinCEN guidance expands who may be a money transmitter; non-custodial wallets are explicitly treated as lower risk. Practical tactics mentioned include locating servers, cold storage and legal entities inside Wyoming to limit federal exposure.
