Soon, there will be Bitcoin (BTC-USD) ATMs on Wall Street. Actually, not exactly; Bitcoin ATM stocks will soon be available on Wall Street. Even a bear market can't prevent cryptocurrency startups from going public. As part of a merger agreement, Bitcoin Depot, the first supplier of crypto ATMs, will shortly begin trading on the Nasdaq.

Regardless of market conditions or legal restrictions, crypto ATM use is booming in the United States. Regardless of technological proficiency, anybody who intends to purchase cryptocurrencies may do so with the assistance of these computers. These machines are the simplest way to invest since users may purchase Bitcoin from them without having to create a wallet or an exchange account.

Additionally, crypto ATMs are springing up everywhere as crypto businesses focus on the still largely unexplored potential of the American market. Since 2020, there have been over 34,000 cryptocurrency ATMs installed in the United States, up from 4,200. With less than 39,000 of these machines in existence worldwide, the United States controls roughly 90% of the available supply.

These devices are only another step toward the ultimate objective of making cryptocurrencies a genuinely democratic form of money, according to the crypto community. Everyone can use one since they don't need bank accounts. The most underprivileged groups may benefit financially as Bitcoin use cases become more real and useful for daily life. Regulators, on the other hand, have started to complain that they cause problems for law enforcement and support criminal interests.

Despite these defenses, the financial community regards them as a cash cow. In fact, researchers predict that this industry's worth would increase by a remarkable $2.67 billion by 2026. Additionally, North America is predicted to see the majority of this expansion.

Listing of Bitcoin Depot on Nasdaq through SPAC Agreement

Investors will want to back a leader since there is so much wealth likely to enter the market. One of these leaders is Bitcoin Depot, which operates over 7,000 ATMs in the United States and Canada. And shortly, stock traders will have the opportunity to learn more about the firm thanks to its agreement with a company that specializes in special purpose acquisitions (SPAC).

Today, GSR II Meteora (NASDAQ:GSRM) announces its plans to combine with Bitcoin Depot and IPO the company. The transaction, worth $885 million, was approved by both corporations. Through this agreement, Bitcoin Depot will trade as Bitcoin Depot Inc. on the Nasdaq Exchange. The stock's ticker symbol will be "BTM." The firm will have access to GSR's $320 million in funding, which it may utilize to expand its operations, in addition to this $885 million infusion into Bitcoin Depot. If all goes according to plan, the transaction will be completed in the first quarter of 2023.

Of course, the firms must take into account the current status of the cryptocurrency market.

According to Forbes, this month marks the first time since late 2015 that there have been more crypto ATMs removed than added. Additionally, since 2017, this year has experienced the weakest increase for ATMs. However, Bitcoin Depot claims that it is not adversely affected by the macroeconomic circumstances of the cryptocurrency market. In fact, according to CEO Brandon Mintz, the business is prospering. We're really doing very well right now, despite the market, he claims.

Despite a sharp increase in trading volume, the price of GSRM is not changing much in response to the news. This trading session has seen more than 338,000 shares traded, significantly more than the typical 50,000.
