Mayor Eric Adams said that he wants his paycheck to come in the form of Bitcoin (he later clarified that he'd convert a check into the cryptocurrency). And he said he wants to make New York City the crypto capital of the country. But those dreams might hit a few roadblocks. There's restrictions in Albany and Washington.
