The Tourism, Gaming, and the Arts Committee recently advanced bill A5447 in the New Jersey Assembly, which targets online platforms that utilize virtual currency for cash prizes. The bill, sponsored by Representative Clinton Calabrese, seeks to implement new penalties for illegal gambling activities while authorizing both the Division of Consumer Affairs and the Division of Gaming Enforcement to enforce these new regulations.
