First Bitcoin ATM to be Installed in Venezuela

Jorge Farias, CEO and founder of Cryptobuyer, a cryptocurrency platform that lets users top up their phones, pay bills, and even change their crypto in and out of fiat, announced they would be installing the first Bitcoin ATM in the history of the country in the coming weeks. “We are going to install this cryptocurrency ATM in short; we have the equipment already here in the country, we are running the final tests and we will be sharing details in social networks,” Farias explained.

The ATMs will receive cash money from the user and then they will transfer the value of that cash to the crypto wallet of the customer instantly. Farias also announced that in the current state of the country, it is important to teach people the real value of cryptocurrencies as a store of value.

“These tools are much easier to use than regular ATMs,” the CEO noted. He did not reveal details about the possible know-your-customer (KYC) requirements or fees involved.
