Australia could see more than 2900 Bitcoin-enabled ATMs in operation, in a joint venture between StarGroup and DigitalX.
The joint venture between the 2 companies will see 2900 of StarGroup's exisitng ATM be equipped to convert Bitcoin into cash, and cash into Bitcoin.
It appears that Bitcoin has reached the stage where mainstream large scale ATM rollouts are becoming economically viable. The project is dependant on Stargroup developing software for their ATMs to process Bitcoin transactions, and for DigitalX to deliver an API to facilitate them.
Australia currently only has 16 Bitcoin ATMs, mainly in Sydney and Melbourne.

Whaaat? That would be awesome!! And then Bitcoin's price will have a nice spike again 😆

Pretty good news! I bet Sydney, Melbourne, Queensland will do well for these ATMs (Popular states). I'm guessing Perth (I live in Perth) will be last or even in line with Tassie and NT. Maybe on par with Adelaide lol.

I hear you on that. I'm in Perth too. We may get some on the back end of the roll-out, but you never know. There aren't many Star ATMs in Perth...

Excellent! I just missed you.
Good to know where tha ATMs are, but not sure if and when the upgrading will start. It's probably still in early development stages for now.
