Leading japanese ATM manufacturer OKI has entered into Bitcoin ATM business.They are launching their first line of Bitcoin ATMs this month.The OKI electric company claims to be the first to develop world's first cash recycling ATM in 1982.It seems that all the companies who are pioneer in their fields are jumping into bitcoin industry to make utmost use of bitcoin development.
That is great news. Japan has to be part of this huge movement upward in BTC's price. "The more the merrier."
Re BTC ATMs, in the USA the fees are typically around 14%, yes very high, but the owners of the "BTMs" have to buy the machine, maintain it, pay rent to the store and collect the money (probably each day). Sounds expensive to me to do all that.

Yes, it DOES seem like the pace is picking up... Maybe this will grow exponentially (maybe it already HAS, we might just be seeing the curve get steeper). But with big bumps along the way. The next crash will be a doozy for sure.
