Hi guys,

I've been long fascinated with bitcoin ATM machines and love to spot them wherever I go traveling but haven't seen one for a long time in New York – are there any of them left in the city at all?

I keep hearing anecdotal stories of people using them but wonder if they are still considered a good way to buy bitcoin, given the steep fees these machines often charge.

Have you ever used a bitcoin ATM in NYC?

I have not had the chance to use Bitcoin ATM because ATM is not yet available in my country. Bitcoin's ATH will take a long time to roll out globally. However, if the ATM is enabled, it will be possible to remain anonymous when someone goes to cash out bitcoins from the ATM So in decentralized things I don't like to reveal my identity. So I am not interested for ATM. For that I am not enthusiastic about it. But it would be great to see if ATM is available around us

I am yet to see a BTC ATM, let alone think of using one.
In my country these days, people even hardly go to use the ATM machines because they would rather use the point of service terminals which is known as the POS machines and also mobile banking apps has done more to ease the burden of either visiting an ATM, a POS vendor or carrying large cash about.

A country that has BTC ATM machines is one that has allowed its citizens to use and own crypto currency. A place where it is legal to transact with crypto.

These days we find more regulated crypto agencies springing up and that's an issue in a way to the idea of decentralization that BTC stands to uphold, so if I claim to be an anonymous BTC holder, why would I go to use an ATM that is probably fitted with cameras to identify its users?
