Prohibits public officials from accepting virtual currency and non-fungible tokens as gifts.

S 3628 prohibits New Jersey public officials from accepting virtual currency and non-fungible tokens (NFTs) as gifts by adding these digital assets to the legal definition of "gift." The bill directly affects state employees, agency heads, and legislators - covered under existing gift-prohibition laws - by extending current restrictions to include these new forms of digital property. Key provisions amend statutory definitions to explicitly list virtual currency and NFTs as prohibited gifts, ensuring they are treated identically to traditional gifts under the law. This change updates existing ethics rules to address emerging digital assets without altering which officials are subject to the prohibition.
