FORT LEE, NJ, Dec. 10, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- GD Entertainment and Technology (OTC: GDET) (“GDET” or the “Company”), an emerging leader in the CBD, Blockchain, and Luxury Retail markets, is pleased to announce that it has officially signed the lease for placing the Company’s first Bitcoin ATM at iVapeATX, a premier vape products store located in Austin, Texas.
“Today, we have taken a significant step toward bringing our HyperDigital subsidiary to a cash-flow positive status, and we believe this will lead to additional installations, all in very strong, high-traffic crypto-friendly locations,” commented Anil Idnani, CEO of GDET.
According to the results of a survey of Bitcoin ATM operators published on CoinATMRadar.com, operators reported $30K in average monthly transaction volume for each Bitcoin ATM in operation. According to the survey results, some machines were reported as high as $100K per month in average transaction volume.
Management believes the establishment of this location will lead directly to other locations for the placement of other Bitcoin ATMs operated by GDET in the near future. The Company will update current and prospective shareholders as further information becomes available.
“This is a scalable business with huge potential returns,” continued Idnani. “The future of this business, and for our HyperDigital subsidiary, is much brighter than the present context as cryptocurrencies continue to become more popular over time. But even under present circumstances, we believe each machine will represent a profitable venture, accounting for all-in costs.”
The signed lease covers twelve (12) months, and grants GDET full rights to install and operate one Bitcoin ATM at iVapeATX. The Company will be working to expand its fleet over time as analysts continue to anticipate dramatic growth in the overall Crypto ATM space, including a recent MarketsandMarkets report calling for the space to jump to $144.5 million by 2023 from $6.8 million in 2017 at a CAGR of 54.7%.
