ATM in Budapest dispenses Bitcoins

[LakeBTC]

Users can deposit forint bills in the machine and receive Bitcoins, the digital currency that is gaining traction around the world. If the user has a Bitcoin wallet, the QR code can be read on the device. Anyone who does not have the Bitcoin wallet mobile application can print out a sheet of paper with a QR code representing the purchased units.

Bitcoins were invented for trade on the internet. They are not issued by a central bank, but are valued based on demand. They are currently valued at around $508, but their value has fluctuated widely, reaching $1,147 last December.

This Bitcoin ATM was created by a firm called Lamassu and is locally owned and operated by Barnabás Debreczen.

This is great and definitely seems like a more ideal way to be able to convert your current currency into bitcoins.

I like how they cater for those who may not have a wallet as well with this ATM allowing you to still convert over to bitcoins and giving you what you need to be able to open up a wallet from there if you wish.

I hope it's better than the one in the Tested.com video where they try to buy a Bitcoin and it is a total absolute mess.

Seems far better than the ones set up in Toronto..

Thanks for the share.

Would love to see bitcoin spread as well as its acceptance by the world and hope these kinds of machines get sets up into more places in the world
