A federal court in the United States has rejected an emergency request to block a ban on cryptocurrency ATMs in Tennessee. The ban, which went into effect on July 1, makes the intentional installation, placement, or operation of virtual currency self-service machines a Class A misdemeanor in the state. GPD Holdings, LLC, operating as CoinFlip, a major global crypto ATM operator with over 5,500 machines across 48 U.S. states and multiple countries, and Charles Wernicke, CEO of Private IT Corporation, had sought to halt the ban pending a constitutional lawsuit. The court's decision allows the ban to remain in effect while legal proceedings continue.
