Australia's financial crime regulator, AUSTRAC, has suspended Cryptolink's registration for three months, forcing the operator to temporarily shut down its Bitcoin ATMs across the country. The regulator said the company failed to meet basic anti-money laundering reporting obligations and did not respond adequately to information requests, reports gadgets360.com. The suspension follows an enforceable undertaking Cryptolink signed in 2025. Australian authorities have been tightening oversight of crypto ATM operators.
