11 sats \ 1 reply \ @Cje95 OP 21 May \ parent \ on: First time since July 2023 number of active Bitcoin ATMs worldwide has decreased bitcoin
Yeah it's an interesting article because it talks about how it almost crossed the 38k ATM line but the US and Canada, which have the most, had 330 combined go "offline". In Australia, the number 3 country in terms of BTC ATMs, Europe, and Switzerland though added a combined 50 so the number only decreased by 280 worldwide.
The article states
"Law enforcement agencies in the U.S. actively pursue and shut down Bitcoin ATMs frequently used for extortion and scams."
However, I haven't seen really any discussion or evidence about this taking place...
