The growing popularity of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC) is expected to be a significant factor in the growth of demand for cryptocurrency ATMs, to which the hospitality industry is expected to be a huge contributing factor, even with the impediment posed by uncertain government regulation.

It is determined that the Asia Pacific region will soon demand more and more cryptocurrency ATMs thanks to the growing levels of disposable income and the increasing popularity of cryptocurrency.
Geographically, the North American and the European region have more market share in the crypto market owing to their early adoption of technology and the presence of major market players in the region.
The report scrutinizes major cryptocurrency ATM companies, including Genesis Coin, Inc., General Bytes, Lamassu, Inc., Bitaccess, Coinsource, Covault, and Mainstreet Automaten GmbH.
