Honestly, I've never done any transactions with Bitcoin ATMs, I've only seen them 1-2 times in Vietnam, and we still consider it an interesting object from a Sci-fi movie about the cashless future.
What do you think about the real value of Bitcoin ATMs? Will they participate in the operations of the BTC network as vigorously as exchanges? Are they just a tool to advertise the buildings that place them?
