In 2024, the number of Bitcoin ATMs grew by 6%, reaching over 38,700 machines across more than 70 countries. The U.S. dominates the market with an 81% share, while Europe continues steady expansion. These ATMs make it easier to buy and sell cryptocurrencies, though transaction fees can be high. However, rising fraud cases and increased regulatory scrutiny in countries like the U.S., U.K., and Germany present challenges, particularly for older individuals who are more frequently targeted by scams.
