That is a bigger problem in Austria. There are not much merchants, which accept Bitcoin. That's why a always was a little bit ashamed of Austrian economy, which is pretty slow on using new technologies.

Excellent residing in Austria will be more enjoyable now. Back in Wien half a year ago I could only find a few Bitcoin ATMs.

600 outlets (with an option to expand to 1200), that's pretty impressive. What is the face value of Bitcoinbon vouchers? Bitcoinbon is available as a voucher for 25, 50 and 100 EUR. https://coinfinity.co/bitcoinbon-en/So basically you're not buying bitcoins directly, you're buying voucher you can redeem for BTC at bitcoinbon.at. That's actually a good idea and could drive more sales than standard BTC ATM.

I'm going to try and find one in Wien today. I'll definitely post some pictures afterwards. This is quite exciting. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) A few? I just know of 2 BTC ATMs. One in Vienna, one in Graz ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) I expressed myself wrongly. I couldn't find a few that's the issue. The only one that I encountered (after a lot of searching), was this one: http://coinatmradar.com/bitcoin_atm/171/bitcoin-atm-lamassu-wien-sektor5-coworking-spaces-wien/Now the Bitcoinbons are everywhere.

I think that classifies as "an jeder ecke" oder? nicht buchstäblich aber... I think the same thing is already available in the UK, but the bitcoin economy is still pretty small there, I hope it helps the Austrian's BTC economy more.

WOW this is really great news! My country, Croatia, is very near to Austria, so I may come to visit you and buy some BTC ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I hope something like this happen also soon in my country. Recently, we got first bitcoin ATM in Zagreb, so at least, this is some good start for bitcoin community in our country.

Wow, in a country like that I would have never expected a concept of Bitcoin to take off to the point where you can purchase BTC that easily. The US should follow. Vancouver, I believe, has a Bitcoin ATM, and in the US I think one exists as well. Not as easy, clearly.

http://cointelegraph.com/news/113424/austria-gets-600-merchants-selling-bitcoin-overnightFinally, something happened in Austria, I can be proud of. Do give some background. Trafiken are the only shop, where you can buy tobacco ware(of course there are also vending machines for that) and lottery scratch ticket. There are some really fucked up laws about that in Austria. So, in Austria there is always a Trafik near you, so you can feed your lung cancer, now that also goes for Bitcoin. That's some amazing news, i didn't think that we could see so mass adoption in any europe country sooner than in some countires of US. Seems like it's time to visit my friend who works there or ask him about these atms first and tell him to test them ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) . Positive news indeed!!!

The only online casino on which i won something. I made 17mBTC from 1mBTC in like 15 minutes. This is not paid AD!

Maybe make some movie about it and push it to tv's or some conferrence. It needs more promotion, i don't know single company that works with bitcoin.
