There is a growing need for Bitcoin ATMs which can be accessed around the clock and preferably come in the form of two-way machines. The latest Bitcoin teller machine in Chicago is not a two-way device, but it can be accessed 24/7. RocketItCoin is on the right track by the look of things.
It may sound strange to some people knowing that they can’t access Bitcoin ATMs on a 24/7 basis in most cases, but there is a good reason why this is not the case. A Bitcoin ATM is more portable than the average bank teller machine, and they are not built into the wallet like an outside ATM would be.
This is why operators need to take additional security precautions to ensure the device cannot be stolen. But there are some Bitcoin ATMs available around the clock, and another one of these machines has been added by the RockItCoin team earlier today.
With this new Bitcoin ATM installed at Amstar Gas Station in Aurora, IL, consumers will have access to a machine where they can buy cryptocurrency with cash at any given time. Do keep in mind this device has a daily limit of US$2,500 in transactions, although it should take a while to reach this threshold.
At the time of publication, no details had been revealed related to the fees for buying Bitcoin through this Genesis Coin ATM. This seems to be a recurring trend with RockItCoin ATMs in the Chicago area, as none of the devices list their fee on the website or CoinATMRadar.
Something has to give in the Chicago area sooner or later, though, as the number of Bitcoin ATMs in the region keeps on growing. With close to 40 different machines in this region of the US alone, there are plenty of opportunities to buy Bitcoin. Bearing in mind how there are 633 Bitcoin ATMs all over the world right now, the concentration in the Chicago area is quite striking.
