InterWallet™ | Sell anything, to anyone. Tembusu. Liberty Teller – Bitcoin in 30 Seconds. Skyhook's Open-Source Bitcoin ATM Will Cost Under $1,000. There are a surprising number of bitcoin ATMs currently on the market for entrepreneurs willing to make an investment. Companies like Robocoin and Lamassu are building and selling ATMs that can exchange government-backed currencies for bitcoin all over the world. While hardware and software are readily available, the potential roadblock for many of these ATMs is compliance. In many countries the regulation of virtual money transmitters is still something of a grey area. Additionally, some governments do not appear to be interested in hosting virtual currency ATMs at all.

CoinDesk recently reported that Robocoin was shipping its machines over to Hong Kong and Taiwan at the very beginning of this year, however Taiwan decided to block the ATMs soon after. Building an ATM Jon Hannis, founder of Skyhook, told CoinDesk that it would only take one large operator to establish itself in the market for the bitcoin ATM floodgates to open. Hannis’ Skyhook project can be seen in the video below: Bitcoin ATM Wikipedia.
