Amsterdam Airport has installed ATM that allowed outbound travelers to convert their Euros in two prominent cryptocurrencies Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Reading this news I thought its a great Idea for travelers that they can easily convert their local currencies to Global Currency like BTC and ETH. And also realize cryptocurrencies are being accepted in European region more than other parts of the world.

Good idea, since travelers will not be able to use that currency anymore after they leave that country why not just convert it in cryptocurrency which can be accessed anywhere you are and be able to sell it when you got back home. But would be better if the airport will also implement a payment system using those cryptocurrency like what australian airport did.


The idea is intended for visitors who leave the country to go back home, but it's also very interesting for Dutch people who want to travel to countries outside the European Union because they can exchange their currency through BTC or ETH in the country of destination, and even, in the event that they travel to Japan, they can use BTC to make any purchase in the country.
