Note that in the US, many new ATMs appeared in the Circle K stores, in particular those located in Nevada and Arizona. Marc Grens, president and co-founder of the crypto company DigitalMint, which delivers Bitcoin-ATM, noted that his team is proud to partner with Circle K.

Increasing competition in the Bitcoin ATM market is likely to result in lower commissions for users, which are usually significantly higher than the alternatives available to users online.
