The company has been given thirty days to provide written explanation on why our activity is exempt from licensing under current law. The commission has formally stated that unless exempt from licensing we must stop further activity until such time as we apply for and obtain a Money Transmitter license.

I see that Tangible Cryptography's MSB registration (#31000023734880), dated March 23, 2013, lists MSB Activities as "Mone transmitter".

If Tangible Cryptography were to have wanted to choose something other than Money transmitter, there's nothing else that really applies. And money transmitter isn't really correct either.

Bitcoins simply is a round peg that doesn't fit in any of the regulator's square holes.

Doesn't criterion 4, "Seller or redeemer of traveler's checks, money orders or stored value", pretty much fit the bill?
