✴️ FIRST BITCOIN ATM MACHINE IN LAS VEGAS!! $3531.48 USD πŸ˜³πŸ€‘

in charlesfuchs β€’Β  7 years agoΒ  (edited)

Look what I found, A Bitcoin ATM at "The D Las Vegas Casino". I was surprised that you can pay for things in Bitcoins at the front desk, gift shop, restaurants and other places inside of the casino. 🎰🎲

The only thing that you couldn't do was use Bitcoins to gamble, don't get me wrong... I did try and they said no πŸ€£πŸ˜‚

The transaction is pretty fast, however the only bad thing was the high fees. The word on the street is that every single Casino in Las Vegas will soon have Bitcoins Machines.Β πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

It's pretty exciting times for cryptocurrencies, here are some pictures of the Bitcoin Machine and like usual...

I had to do the "Charles Fuchs" pose lol: ‍♂️

It's very cool!

wow, bitcoin with Las Vegas design pretty awesome! thanks sharing

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

There was another machine down the street but I was like na πŸ˜‚

πŸ€‘ awesome sauze..

Or "would you like to earn more coins" :))

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

That is so funny... haha

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Wow that is neat! I would love to see more day-to-day use of cryptos like this, a Visa or MasterCard based on Steem would be very nice!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I would love to get a steem card, in the mean time... ill just use my bitpay card :)

Give it time and I'm sure others will become available, as more people and businesses realise cryptocurrency is here to stay it's going to explode. However the only problem I can see is various governments will bend over backwards to protect their fiat system , rant over cheers mike

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

That is what I'm thinking about also, the government can put tons of regulations on it or even tax it.... But there will always be around that :)

That is why BTC is by far the best crypto currency! Here in Sarasota we only have about 4 BTC ATM's.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

We have like 4 in Vegas also... I'm surprised every casino don't have one yet but I heard it will be tons around in 2018 :)

Nice! About time!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

There's like 2 of them on Freemont Street, the only bad thing they put the machine in the back corner with no traffic haha

lol Doesn't surprise me! Danny Sessom was traveling all over Vegas looking for a machine during Freedom Fest. XD

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

It is great to see bitcoin being used in different places such as casinos and being adopted by many as they realise it is the future.
I'm loving the look of that Bitcoin ATM. There isn't many around where I live and it seems pretty convenient.
Any idea what the transaction fee is there?
One day we will be able to rock up to a casino and start gambling with bitcoin.
I don't understand why they don't accept it now but I guess an atm is a step forward.
They could be swimming in money as bitcoins price rises dramatically throughout the years @stackin haha

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Bitcoin just surpassed it's all time high and this time it's fucking smashed it! W00P W00P

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

In a few years, there is going to be tons of these machines. Once they let me gamble with bitcoin, I will have to blog about it lol

There was one in Boston (around 2014?) that required a retina scan or some insanity. I was like awwww hail naw!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

The probably also wanted your fingerprint, ssn, and your bank accounts jk jk haha

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ (edited)

Because freedom, to "them", is the most dangerous thing on earth ;D

Ayeeee pimpin ain't easy at the Bitcoin machine!!🀣

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I should of bought some more, it went up $1000 since :)

Games of skill will soon replace the games of chance in Vegas...along with Bitcoin leading the way. :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Those are the best... bitcoin and vegas go hand to hand :)

Might not be able to buy casino chips directly with bitcoin, but you can sure as hell buy them with the cash from the atm!

What sort of fees were they charging @stackin?

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Around the 5% mark but It's Vegas, even one drink is like $10 lol

Pretty cool to see the future like that. So how bad were the fees and do you know if it's just because it was Vegas or are the fees high everywhere at Bitcoin ATMs?

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

True, Vegas is expensive on the strip. Tourist town lol

So awesome! I'm having Vegas withdrawals right now!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Vegas Life πŸ€‘πŸ˜ŽπŸ€£

I would imagine high fees, but a machine like that is a start. A sign that cryptocurrency is being more accepted by the masses.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Yeah, most ATM has huge fees already. When I take $20 out, they change me $3 lol

Awesome post! It is good to see bitcoin is being more and more accepted. I am looking into investing in some BTC ATMs here in Thailand. It is going to spread quickly!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I heard there were already tons in Asia... I'm wonder why America is late to adapt Bitcoins. Hmmmm :)

haha ahead of the game I guess! Thailand is lacking in them though. They had one in Bangkok a couple years back, but it closed down. I think it just wasn't quite the right time for it to be successful in Thailand yet. Most of the population are larger unaware of Bitcoin and cryptos at all.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

We are all the front runners for this... wait for a few years, to the moon :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Making that money from the BTC ATM machine. Especially in vegas, that's crazy.
Bitcoin everywhere. Glad to see that!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I need to own once of these :)

We have one in Omaha Nebraska too.. lol I know that does not sound as glamorous!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Seriously, dannnnng... even in Nebraska :)

Not nearly as glamorous

Love all the new ATM's popping up. Hopefully the transactions fees will decrease as more people start to use them. Thanks for sharing!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

They might raise the fees... but I think the future is not the ATM but your iphone which you can hold and buy bitcoin with it :)

good to see! never seen any in the UK

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

You will be seeing them soon enough :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Soon you will see slot machines giving payouts in Bitcoins.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

If that happens, I may start playing some slot machines :)

That looks like a cool setup!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I should of bought 100k worth haha jk

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

wow its a great and really news and a good step for crypto future

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I'm surprised there are only a few of them in Las Vegas and not more :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

What's the fees at? I've only heard about there being like 5 of these in all of finland.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

The cost of 1 bitcoin was $3531.48 so around 3-5% :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Same rate for buying and selling? Still alot better than paying taxes for it.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Bitcoin all the way!!!

Wow, you are doing great man!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ

So cool! I just saw a short video on a coffee shop in Bulgaria (I think) that accepts only bitcoin payment- the world is changing!

Bitcoin and ethereum are the future!!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Hmmm, what about EOS and Steem :)

I got a bellyRub and this post has received a 4.96 % upvote from @bellyrub thanks to: @stackin.

You would think that Vegas would be all over cryptocurrency. They are slow on the uptake. Them and the porn industry. Maybe because it has been too volatile.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

That's what I was thinking, Vegas use to be kinda in front runner for new ideas... I guess Asian is going to lead the future from now on lol

Love This casino and downtown overall. The D is usually the first to try new things and overall listens to their customer base. Everyone please let them know how much you enjoy this machine. Great post!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Only two places that I like about downtown Vegas, THE D and the Golden Nugget :) ... they have the gold machine though which is bad ass :)

this is what I like to call
"awesome sauce" :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Major Bitcoin sauce lol

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I really wish this would happen in Nigeria in the nearest future. What baffles me most is why our government are so adamant in trying to introduce dugutak currency into our economy officially. The economy is already in recession, i think digital currency can be a major boost for it. My thoughts though.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Digital Currency is our future... tons of changes in your society will happen in a few years. I am preparing :)

looks like a lot of vegas changes since I moved away two months ago from sin city.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

It's the same, still bunch of drunks haha

Anything bitcoins do, its great news for steemians :)

I am here now! :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Hey Now, great to see you here @karinaharris :)

Dang our man @stackin there on the ground in LV keeping us informed on the global crypto shift! Good to see man, steady stackin!! :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

What up @kenistyles ... just trying to update my steemians las vegas style haha

You doin it bruv, next time we come through will hit you up! Steady STACKIN' :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

This is good news for our industry and i am glad to see all these happen while i am alive and still very young :)

All i see is opportunities everywhere

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Biggest opportunities are right in front of our eyes, too bad so many people can't see it yet :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Too bad :)

You know we can't actually see opportunities with our eyes opened but with a open mind we can.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

That is true facts :)

I wish there's btc atm everywhere!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

In a few years, I think it's going to everywhere :)

hope I will find sooner in my country

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Pretty soon :)

I was wondering when BitCoin machines would invade #california. I see this stipulation was already in the works. #Cryptocurrency #Blockchain #Trumpcoin

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

There might be some around, you can google it :)

I think within a few years we are going to see a casino where you can only use any type of cryptocurrency to play and no fiat money.

There's already a strip club here like that!πŸ˜‚ I think it's called Legends Room? Ran across it in my BTC ATM research.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I agree, I will be the first one to document it haha

i've never seen a btc atm in italy yet, i hope they will reach my country soon!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Really? I heard in asia... the bitcoin machines are everywhere. Vegas only has like 3-4 or I think but I heard that is changing soon :)

Sweet that is bad ass. I have never seen one before in the states cool you guys have on there.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I was there for about 20 minutes, no one even looked at the BTM machine lol

There have one on the highway going towards nevada. The D was the worst one in Vegas I used. In Vegas at the ATMs are where ive been buying most of my bitcoin though. Theres also a few smoke shops that have BTCATM machines on the west side of the freeway.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Yeah, this was the one at the D... located in the BACK. In a few years, there are going to be everywhere :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Very Cool. I hope we find one like this everywhere around in the near FUTURE. Thanks for sharing.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Don't worry, things are changing fast and I see them everywhere in a few years.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Bitcoins are taking over, more shops accept bitcoins now as well

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

They are going to be everywhere in a few years :)

WE need more of these around the world , so more people can adopt to bitcoin

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I think there is three in Las Vegas so far but I heard that tons are coming in next year :)

A friend recommended me IOTA and I think it's a Sleeping Giant!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I like IOTA, the potential of it can be pretty big πŸ˜€

This is only the beginning. Get ready because times are changing!

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

They are going to have 100's of bitcoin machines soon :)

This is so cool! I want one in Uruguay! hahaha

CanΒ΄t wait for this to go mainstream and reach lots of countries all around the globe.

Thanks for sharing! This really is exciting

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

In a few years it's going to be everywhere :)

Wow what a great milestone for bitcoin and crypto! Thanks for sharing this :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

When I seen the machine, I had to get a picture right away :)

Lol of course! :)

Its time to have those BTM in every city, on every corner :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Totally Agree :)

Just taking this opportunity to say "THANK YOU FOR FOLLOWING ME"

nice! They are quite a few of them in L.A.

Alex is excited about Gambling in a little over 6 years from now.............

nah I dont wanna throw money down the tube

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Really? I didn't know that. I heard that there will be all over the place in a few years :)

Crypto is taking over USD

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Great find! You may be the first to post a pic of a Bitcoin ATM in the US!
I think the ATM Fees will remain high as long as the BTC price volatility continues.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

The machine is tucked at the back of the casino ... I think most people don't even know what Bitcoin is lol

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Yea, at this point I'd be surprised if 2% of their customers even know what cryptocurrencies are. Tho I'm sure a few more poker players have heard of Bitcoin.

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I didn't know you were from Vegas xD great stuff though.. Better an atm then waiting bank transfers.

All the best brother :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Yeah, for over 15+ years... things changed here fast. Blockchain is the future :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

The future is coming bro ^^ and it looks freaking amazing.

Also thanks for the support 😊

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Amazing stuff, the snowball is growing and won't be stopped, to think its not main stream yet. Many people I talk to are not aware of the market or even what a Bitcoin is. Plenty of growth ahead me tinks,

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

I agree, not a lot of people know about bitcoin and the very few who heard about bitcoin, don't really have any or know where to get. Good times are coming for cryptos :)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Good one indeed which shows that crypto is here to stay, keep it up.

Hoping to see bitcoin atm here in nigeria.

Just imagine, How we missed opportunities by not buying BTC with small amounts of money." ... we could play that game with pretty much any investment that went huge, like investing in apple stock when it first went public. Bitcoin is especially painful though.Moral of it: Invest in BTC. right now. don't delay! A month ago (or was it less than that?) it was at 2700 and I was about to start my BTC IRA.
