Crypto ATMs play an important role in stirring up crypto mass adoption. The North America accounts for the largest part of such globally deployed crypto machines, 71,3%. Almost 25% are stationed in the key European cities. Meanwhile Asia where Japan and South Korea are members of top-3 countries by the crypto volume still lags behind USA and Canada, this region houses only 2,56% of total number of crypto ATMs. Oceania, South America, and Africa together account for less figure of deployed machines.
The new trend is that operators try supporting not only Bitcoin but altcoins as well: more than 60% of crypto ATMs do that. Litecoin is the most popular crypto option behind Bitcoin option that exists only at any machine. Down the rankings there are Ethereum and Bitcoin Cash.
