Used a Bitcoin ATM in a gas station today

[groll]

Saw on the Bitcoin atm maps there was a new ATM at a gas station nearby.

So I went to check it out:


The clerk said they've only had it a week and I was the first person to use it.
I had to enter my phone number and get a confirmation code, and after that just insert cash.

It even printed out a receipt:


I've only used an ATM a few times with this being the first big ATM. Before that they were the smaller Skyhook machines which were still pretty cool.

Anyone else seen Bitcoin ATM in random places?

Am happy to see and hear this...its really a good and welcomed idea, though i look forward going through this process, with bitcoin!!!!

Yes its definitely good to see this kind of latest improvement in bitcoin. I'm also looking forward that this kind of technology would be available in any country so bitcoin users would experience the ease in making any transaction anywhere and anytime. I hope that kind of ATM will also be available in my country so it will be easier for me to cash out since I often withdraw some of my coins for buying some stuffs here.

BitCoin ATM's are a great way to introduce Newbies to the Crypto-currencies that will slowly takeover online / digital transactions.

Is there any word on whether or not these BTC ATM's will be rolled out across other service stations under the companies corporate flag or is this a one off in the local market?

The SMS verification takes a little bit of the shine off of the anonymous allure that brings people to BitCoins, however, as time goes on people will either shrug and provide the information, or it will become so routine that it'll be dropped entirely.

Wow, that is super cool. Revolutionary! I did not expect to see these types of machines in gas stations back when I first was introduced to bitcoin in 2013, this gets me really excited.
The possibilities are endless, they could put these in malls, food courts, parking etc. I would like it if they were smaller and designed more sleek, so they could look better. That is funny though, you were the first person to use it!!! More people need to hear about bitcoin.

Wow.. It's so great to have Bitcoin ATM in your country. That way will make people easier to get bitcoin or do transactions. Also it will spread bitcoin popularity among people, especially for people who still don't know bitcoin yet.
I hope in near future there will be more Bitcoin ATM in neighborhood.
