🚨BITCOIN ATMs ARE COLLAPSING UNDER REGULATORY PRESSURE
One of the largest Bitcoin ATM operators has officially filed for bankruptcy.
Bitcoin Depot says it has entered a voluntary Chapter 11 process to wind down operations and sell assets after its business model became “unsustainable.”
Its entire ATM network is now offline.
The reason matters more than the bankruptcy itself.
The company points directly to rising state compliance rules, transaction limits, bans, litigation, and regulatory enforcement crushing profitability.
This is the part of crypto nobody talks about enough:
The industry is splitting into two worlds.
Institutional Bitcoin products are getting embraced on Wall Street…
while retail access points are getting regulated into extinction.
Bitcoin ETFs are booming.
Meanwhile physical Bitcoin infrastructure is disappearing city by city.
That changes who gets access first.
And who controls the rails.
The next phase of crypto may not be about banning Bitcoin.
It may be about making self-sovereign access increasingly difficult for ordinary people.
The network survives.
But the gateways are being rewritten in real time.
