Bitcoin might not be dead, but until they figure out a permanent solution to ~~prevent exchanges from dropping like flies~~ needing centralized exchanges, I'd say Bitcoin is in a deep coma.

Corrected

That is something I have been wondering with all the bitcoin ATMs that have been deployed around the world. How many of them are dependent on the bitcoin exchanges such as Bitstamp or BTC-e? If another occurrence of an exchange shutting down locks away the money and bitcoins ATM owners have on the exchange what do they do?
