Missouri AG sues crypto ATM operator CoinFlip, alleging fraud

The lawsuit followed an investigation by Missouri authorities into several crypto ATM companies that involve allegations of “deceptive fee structures” and scams.

Missouri is suing the company behind cryptocurrency ATM operator CoinFlip, accusing it of “knowingly facilitating fraudulent transactions and profiting from them,” in the latest move by a US state authority targeting digital currency kiosks and ATMs.

In a Wednesday notice, the office of Missouri Attorney General Catherine Hanaway said the lawsuit against GPD Holdings, doing business as CoinFlip, was in response to incidents of fraud, including against the state's “seniors and veterans.” The state began a probe in December 2025 into several crypto ATM companies, including Bitcoin Depot, which recently filed for bankruptcy.
