New Hampshire has been the most libertarian-leaning US state from the very founding of the nation. In January 1776, it became the first North American colony to establish a government that was independent of Great Britain's authority, and it has held onto its rebellious spirit ever since. More recently the Free State Project (FSP) chose to make the state their home, in 2003, and attracted liberty-minded individuals from around the world.

As a result, bitcoin usage over recent years has soared in the “live free or die” state, with events like the annual Porcfest primarily attracting bitcoin-accepting merchants.

“‘Monetary value’ means a medium of exchange, whether or not redeemable in currency, and includes convertible virtual currency.”

- New Hampshire General Court statute 399-G:1
