The largest Bitcoin ATM network in North America shut down 9,000 machines overnight.
Here is why.
Scammers were using them to steal hundreds of millions from ordinary people. A phone call. A fake government agent. A Bitcoin ATM around the corner. Money gone forever.
The FBI logged 13,460 crypto kiosk fraud complaints in 2025 alone. $389 million in losses.
States started banning them one by one. Indiana first. Then Tennessee. Minnesota. Connecticut pulled their license entirely.
With no machines left to run, the business was finished.
9,000 ATMs. 47 states. A decade of operations.
Gone in 90 days.
Keep your says safe.
