For nearly a decade, the number of crypto ATMs had steadily increased without fail, but something flipped in late 2022.
The number of installed Bitcoin ATMs is roughly 11.1% less than at the start of 2023, bucking a 10-year trend that saw the tally increase at the start of every year.
According to Coin ATM Radar, the number of crypto ATMs globally as of Jan. 1, 2024, is 33,628, down from 37,827 recorded on Jan. 1, 2023. The net total number of Bitcoin ATMs had a mix of growth and decline over 2023, but ultimately fell by the year's end.
Since Coin ATM Radar first started tracking crypto ATMs in October 2013, the number of installed crypto ATMs has steadily increased monthly until reaching an all-time high of 39,376 in August 2022.
