Toronto may soon claim the title for the Bitcoin ATM capital of the world, if CAVIRTEX has any say in the matter.

Today, the Calgary-based Bitcoin exchange and services provider announced it was rolling out six more Bitcoin Teller Machines (BTMs) across the Greater Toronto Area. According to CAVIRTEX, this will make Toronto the city with the largest number of BTMs in the world. Canada has more than 30 BTMs spread out over Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa, and Montreal, with the world’s first BTM having landed in Vancouver in 2013.

CAVIRTEX has launched its first six bitcoin-branded ATMs in the greater Toronto area.

The bitcoin ATMs mark the first phase of the Calgary-based bitcoin and litecoin exchange’s larger plan to bring 10 bitcoin ATMs to Canada through a partnership with Gateway Newstands, a retail chain with 500 locations in North America.

Keep em coming!

I don't think Toronto has more ATMs, yet. With the addition of the one CAVirtEx just sent to Vancouver, we now have at least 10 Bitcoin ATMs, here, maybe more. And we're a significantly smaller city, too.

That is great news for the Canadians. Earlier most of the Bitcoin ATMs were concentrated in the Western part of the country, especially in and around the city of Vancouver in British Colombia. With these new additions, it will look more dispersed.

is there any statistic of how many people are actually using these atms? I can't imagine people lining up to them.

Well there are probably a few atms that are busy but Cavirtex will reveal the results in a few months of how popular they actually are.
If they do well that is XD.

The one in Vancouver though had a lot of traffic coming to it millions in sales
