http://www.coindesk.com/5000-terminals-across-ukraine-now-offer-bitcoin-cash/The network, which is operated by the country’s National Credit Bank, allows customers to buy vouchers for bitcoin from a new company called BTCU.
After depositing cash in a terminal, purchasers receive a voucher containing an activation code either on a printed receipt or via an SMS message to their phones. They can then go to BTCU’s website to enter the activation code and claim their bitcoin. Big ? Big  Big !!!  EDITED: wrong country in title.

"In a nutshell, the network works like a distributed
timestamp server, stamping the first transaction to spend a coin. It
takes advantage of the nature of information being easy to spread but
hard to stifle." -- Satoshi

Looks like really big news actually, this is the first we've seen of a bank never mind one currently in the middle of a civil war accepting and openly trading Bitcoin.

actually as the turmoil happening there, wealth is one of the most concerned subjects. Rolling out ATM all over the country can not be at any better time but NOW. btw, you dont buy btc directly from the ATM (meaning no wallet addresses being exchange at the terminal). You buy voucher which can be used to buy BTC online. Its an extra step but very reasonable as the regular ATM isnt equipped for btc wallet. |

Does that mean that it could theoreticaly work even offline? |
