“The Central Bank has warned that users of bitcoin vending machines in Ireland will not enjoy the same protections as those buying recognised currencies from regulated financial institutions. The warning came as the country’s first bitcoin ATM became operational in Dublin. The machine, which converts physical euro cash into the digital currency, is being operated by Bitvendo, a bitcoin vending business started by a number of Irish and international digital currency enthusiasts. Bitvendo charges 3%-5% commission on each transaction. The company plans to roll out more bitcoin ATMs around the country over the coming months, beginning in Waterford.”
