“So far, so good for the world’s first Bitcoin ATM. On its 29th day of operation at the Waves Coffee House in Vancouver B.C., Robocoin’s Bitcoin ATM exceeded $1,000,000 CAD in volume from 1,576 transactions. Interesting to note that more than 50 percent of people who bought Bitcoin — instead of exchanging Bitcoin for CAD — were from first-time buyers of the digital currency. Operated by Las Vegas-based Robocoin and Vancouver-based Bitcoiniacs, the ATM scans your palm and allows you to exchange cash for Bitcoin, or do the reverse. Customers can make up to $3,000 worth of Bitcoin exchanges per day.”
