BitAccess

  The Workshop Café, located in San Francisco’s financial district, is home to the first BitAccess Bitcoin Teller Machine (BTM) in the city. 

This BTM in the Bay Area is important because of its proximity to Silicon Valley. Numerous bitcoin companies in the area, including BitAccess, are building the future of digital currencies. 

The machine will be permanently installed at the entrance of the Workshop Café, at 180 Montgomery St. in San Francisco. 

A place for people to work, meet or just get a quick coffee, the Workshop Café signifies the beginning of many BitAccess BTM deployments within the United States.

This also is a landmark in terms of the partnership between BitAccess and US BTM operator Zenbox. Santa Monica, California-based Zenbox will be launching a number of BTMs across the United States in the coming months. 

For BitAccess, the Canadian bitcoin market is incredibly important to us. We started our company in Canada, with Canadian founders. And our Bitcoin Teller Machine, also known as a BTM, is produced in Ottawa, Ontario – the country’s capital.

This is why working with Canada’s CAVIRTEX bitcoin exchange to launch 10 of our BTMs has significance.

There is another reason, too. Bitcoin allows people to move money quickly and easily. We think our BTMs are the perfect on-ramp and off-ramp for bitcoin. Anyone with a mobile phone can use one of our machines to buy or sell the most popular digital currency in the world.

CAVIRTEX is Canada’s largest bitcoin exchange, transacting over $90 million in volume since its inception in 2011.

With CAVIRTEX deploying six BTMs in Toronto and four others in Vancouver, Niagara, Ottawa and Halifax, people living in Canada have an incredibly easy way to transact in bitcoin. It means uncomplicated access to bitcoin from one of our machines, including both deposits and withdrawals using the Canadian dollar.

This is exciting, since 10 brand-new BTMs operated by the premier Canada exchange further promotes the BitAccess goal – to make bitcoin super simple for anyone.
