Where is the best place to buy Bitcoin?
From Bitcoin ATMs to online platforms, you’ve got a few options if you’re planning on loading up your digital wallet. But what do you need to know to make the best purchasing decision? That’s what we’ll cover today.
Read on to learn more about the best places to buy Bitcoin.
If you’re considering purchasing Bitcoin, understanding where the best place to buy it is probably at the top of your list.
We aren’t in the early days of crypto anymore; you can find Bitcoin in all kinds of places.
Of course, some are better than others, especially if you’re a beginner. Below you’ll find some of the best places to buy Bitcoin.
Of course, we have to start with Bitcoin ATMs. While there are plenty of ways you can gain access to the popular cryptocurrency, if you want to make a purchase with cash, your options are much more limited.
Fortunately, Bitcoin ATMs make buying with cash easy.
Here at Bitcoin Depot, we operate the largest network of Bitcoin ATMs in the world, with over 8,500 locations across the U.S., Canada, and Australia. Our mission is to simplify the Bitcoin buying process, making it easy for everyone to access the crypto revolution.
Here are a few reasons why Bitcoin ATMs are so amazing:
Of course, Bitcoin ATMs are just one way to make a purchase.
Want to make your Bitcoin purchase online? Well, there are plenty of options out there for you.
First, you can go with our Buy Online service.
There you can find easy-to-navigate online Bitcoin purchases. But that’s not all; you’ll also find other crypto options available:
There are also other online platforms you can use, such as centralized exchanges. To learn more about centralized exchanges, be sure to check out our blog on the topic.
Online buying and Bitcoin ATMs are popular but are not the only ways to buy Bitcoin.
You can also buy Bitcoin at the register with BDCheckout™. What is it? Well, BDCheckout™ is Bitcoin Depot’s enhanced in-person buying experience. Instead of dealing with a machine, you make your buy at the register, much like you would any other retail purchase.
The process is very similar to our Bitcoin ATMs.
You start your transaction in the Bitcoin Depot mobile app (available on iOS* and Android*), creating a unique barcode to scan at the register. All you need to do is have the cashier scan the code on your phone, and that’s it! Like our Bitcoin ATMs, this is a cash-only transaction, so keep that in mind.
When we started in 2016, the crypto industry was in its infancy. Bitcoin had only been around for about seven years and was seen as a new technology sought only by those who recognized its potential.
One of those early adopters was Brandon Mintz, founder and CEO of Bitcoin Depot.
Back then, getting your hands on Bitcoin was a feat in and of itself. In most cases, you had to initiate a peer-to-peer deal with someone who already had Bitcoin. It was more like a Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist deal than the streamlined experience it is today.
That’s what sparked the idea of creating a Bitcoin ATM company.
Buying Bitcoin was too complicated, and to really get it into the hands of the masses, it needed to become more accessible.
That’s our mission here. Our goal is to offer the world a simple and no-fuss way to get their hands on Bitcoin. Since 2016, we’ve grown quite a bit. Not only are we the largest Bitcoin ATM provider in the world, but we’re also the first Bitcoin ATM company to go public in the U.S., trading on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol BTM* (learn more at nasdaq.com).
Why do so many people use our Bitcoin ATMs?
It’s all about simplicity, accessibility, and convenience. You don’t need to jump through hoops just to get a hold of Bitcoin. All you have to do is find a nearby Bitcoin ATM and move through a streamlined buying process.
We make the whole process painless.
You don’t need to wait for lengthy verification times. You don’t have to wait days for a bank transfer. It’s just you, your cash, and your coins. The way it should be.
