The rising popularity of crypto ATMs is projected to accelerate the growth of Bitcoin payments in the future.

Bitcoin payments, enabled by crypto ATMs and mobile wallets, provide significant advantages over traditional financial systems by allowing users to quickly purchase, sell, or transfer Bitcoin using cash or smartphones without the need for extensive registration processes or bank accounts. For example, in April 2024, CryptoNews, a Lithuania-based company providing comprehensive coverage of the crypto and blockchain industry, reported that Australia had 1,008 active Bitcoin ATMs, accounting for 2.7% of the global crypto ATM network. Additionally, BitcoinWorld, a US-based firm specializing in cryptocurrency and blockchain technology, noted a 71.73% increase in crypto ATM installations in 2021.
