Bitcoin ATMs still sound convenient. I predict some government will allow them somewhere, no?
What makes you think they are "disallowed" somewhere?licenced
It is not "disallowed" in the US. However, the operator of the ATM would need to be a licensed money transmitter and would need to follow AML rules.
Can you please help me on this: Is it seen in the US as an ATM only if it gives you BTC in return to USD AND vice-versa
or
even if it only gives one BTC from USD? Isn't it seen, in this latter case, as a "vending machine"? It probably depends on the "status" of bitcoins, whether they're seen as a currency or not. That's my opinion but I would appreciate some motivated opinions! Thanks
