Westford, USA, Sept. 05, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Crypto-trade is booming and this is not surprising as the number of investors and traders in the crypto ATM market keeps on growing.

Rapid Fall of Cryptocurrency Market has Slowed Installation of New Crypto ATM, Says Analyst at SkyQuest
Globally, more than 39,000 crypto ATMs are installed and more than 20,000 of them came in 2021 in the global crypto ATM market. However, since then, only 5,000 new ATMs are installed in the year 2022 as the cryptocurrency market has undergone a rapid fall, leading to a decrease in the number of crypto ATMs installed around the world. According to data from Coinmap, as of January 2022, there were 1,029 crypto ATMs installed globally. However, this number has since decreased by significantly and 4,012 new crypto ATMs are added in the span of 7 months thereafter.
Although there are a few possible reasons for this decrease in the number of crypto ATMs being installed, one of the main factors could be the fall in the value of cryptocurrencies. For instance, at the time of writing this PR, Bitcoin has eroded over 56% of its valuation in just one year. Since most ATMs require users to deposit fiat currency in order to withdraw cryptocurrencies, an increase or decrease in the value of cryptocurrencies could lead to an overall decline or increase in the number of installations respectively in the crypto ATM market.
Another potential reason for this decrease in the number of crypto ATMs is due to increased regulatory scrutiny. Earlier this year, many governments around the world began to take a stricter stance on cryptocurrencies and their associated activities. This stricter stance could lead operators in the global crypto ATM market to decide that it is not worth installing them in certain locations due to the high level of risk involved. For instance, Singapore once considered a crypto friendly country has already started crypto ATM in January 2022. As a result, ATM operators are hesitating to install new machine in the country.

Crypto ATM operators are struggling to keep up with a surge in demand, and some have even gone out of business. In addition, a number of hospitals and casinos have also stopped installing crypto ATMs, as they do not make enough money from them. Popularity is mainly due to the booming value of cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin and Ethereum. But once the price of cryptocurrencies drops, so does the revenue from crypto ATMs.
Despite these challenges, there are still a number of crypto ATM operators in the global crypto ATM market who are confident about the long-term prospects for this technology. Barry Silbert, the founder and CEO of Digital Currency Group, commented on the fall in value of cryptocurrencies: “The experience of 2018 will help inform future innovation and regulation in this new digital asset class.
