What MSantori has posted is pretty much in line with what my attorney has said as well. Since I can't afford the MT licensing, I've had no choice but to dissolve my bitcoin-selling business, in spite of being fully registered with FinCEN. Sad times.

Are you sure that your business actually requires licensing under the relevant state laws? One of the services I can provide (Spam Alert!) is analyzing your business closely under any or all of the states and determining whether you really do require licensing. Your business (whatever it is) likely does not require licensing in every state.
One of the ways that a new business can find success is doing a "rollout" by offering services to customers in foreign countries and ten or fifteen "safe states" in which it would not require a license. It develops an operating history, revenue, cachet, etc in those states, and then rolls out into the next group of states when it can afford the license for those states. Also, by then, many states will probably have given more guidance on BTC businesses.
Entrepreneurs can make money because they think big. But if there's one thing I've learned representing them over the years, it's that the ones who actually do make money don't forget how to think small, too.
In my opinion, that's the path to profit.
