Used a Bitcoin ATM in a gas station today

[Tyrantt]

Damn nice, I've heard that we have one BTC ATM in Serbia and that it's located somewhere in Belgrade in some hotel. Did that ATm take any fee and how much was it?

This just shows us that bitcoin is growing bigger every day and I hope that it will spread here a little faster that before.

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?

I just got 1 in my country but after i wanna try them, and the bitcoin atm just receiving for the deposit method and not supporting about the withdrawal method, and my question are you ever try that for withdrawing some money because i doubt it's will be easy for withdrawing bitcoin into the fiat in bitcoin atm ....but the machine looks like so wierd for me.

I think bitcoin getting grow rapidly every day and spread more widely, which so many ATM and payment that accepted bitcoin.
But this btc ATM makes me wonder 'who behind this? is it just some businessman, banks, Government or whom did that?

Yeah but I litle bit scare about this bitcoin atm, is goverment take a tax for it? but I am agree that bitcoin is gow faster. This bitcoin atm will not only one spot to get bitcoin but it is also an advertisement of bitcoin too. Si many people will give attention in that machine.

There are bitcoin ATMs at Swiss railway stations now. That would qualify as a random place currently.
But as Bitcoin adoption increases, it will be just another place.

I dont think soo if government would  get  tax from it or it would surely does  it really depends on which  country does the   atm have  been placed. Some  may claim  tax and some may not. Its really nice to see  already some  bitcoin atms  on  random places which  really means  that bitcoin  adoption is  increasing and  it would  surely  increase even more  on  upcoming years.  Hopefully it would  be available too on  my place. Lets  just wait, we  will surely reach that.

this is what i think too because after we can use bitcoin atm, government might be thinking to applying tax for us when we want to use bitcoin atm in every place. but since bitcoin is free from tax, i think government will think twice before they want to apply tax for using bitcoin atm.

What's the difference between the Withdraw Cash option and Redeem option? I've heard about Coinsecure ATMs but they are not available in my city but it's a good way of promoting the currency. But still there is not much demand for bitcoins or users interested in this currency due to which it would not be feasible to have such ATMs in my city.

I think that the Redeem option is a promo code which include some bitcoin balance, I think that seeing ATMs in gas station is a good thing because we can use these if we have any emergency situations.

The fees probably are not high but even if they are I would use them only for emergency situations, is there any limit to withdraw in these ATMs or it is unlimited?

No Bro I Never Seen Bitcoin Atm Because In My Country There are Less Users Of Bitcoin So In My Country I Didn't Saw any Bitcoin ATM Till Now.....
I Hope that I Will See and Use a Bitcoin ATM in My Country in Future And Also Able to Buy Bitcoins Through Bitcoin ATM.....

looks more cool if we use the atm bitcoin in each city. maybe the people who are new to bitcoin will see it as anything fancy and cool. I hope things like that reproduced in every place, making it easier to attract bitcoin bitcoin users they have, and it will definitely develop if the tool is already spread.

That machine looks a little old though. But as long as it is working and it serves your purpose, it is a big step forward. I hope more people use it because there are also maintenance costs associated with an ATM and if it happens that only a few people use it, they might think it is not worth having a machine set up there.

That's a real issue, Doms.  I have spoken with one of the owners of BTC ATMs in my city (USA), and he told me that maintenance is expensive, as was getting the money transmitter license, etc. 

It may be that as more stores (etc.) get wifi and a willingness to allow placement of BTC ATMs, that will get more visibility and with luck more users as well as merchants accepting Bitcoin.

14% fee (in my city) is just too high though.

For the first time i am seeing bitcoin ATM.  You are very fortunate that you have bitcoin atm in your country. But does it provide full secure transaction or data passes through third party. Because i am very conscious about my money and I first want to know how secure my transaction is. Well at least you had experienced bitcoin atm.

Basically every time you are using cryptocurrency exchange, online wallet, casino or any kind of bitcoin satellite service you entrust them your money.
And it is actually rather hard for company with brick and mortar machines to openly try to scam people. You will have less chance being scammed when using BTM than your local online exchange probably.

[Juggy777]

Wow that's too good. Where exactly is this by the way? What are the fees if any, and was it completely secured? Wish it comes in my area also

[DOGE12321]

Yeah, I have a couple of Bitcoin ATMs lying around in the city CBD. One of them is outside a newsagency and another right outside a train station. It is highly convenient and I have used it a few times. I had to follow a similar procedure as to what you had to and I was also astonished by the extremely low exchange fee!
