The machine takes cash only, and can either add your purchase directly to an existing digital wallet, or give you a piece of paper with codes that allow you to do so later, once you’ve set the wallet up. It does not dispense cash in exchange for a user’s coin.

“Currently, buying Bitcoin online is very lengthy and time consuming. First you have to go to the bank and get your account authorized for the online exchange, or you have to get a wire transfer. Both of those cost money, both of those take time.

Already there are 15 Bitcoin ATMs in Canada, and most of the Canadian provinces and territories have at least one of them. What we need is more Bitcoin ATMs in the European and Asian countries.  ;D
