The number of installed Bitcoin ATMs is roughly 11.1% less than at the start of 2023, bucking a 10-year trend that saw the tally increase at the start of every year.
According to Coin ATM Radar, the number of crypto ATMs globally as of Jan. 1, 2024, is 33,628, down from 37,827 recorded on Jan. 1, 2023. The net total number of Bitcoin ATMs had a mix of growth and decline over 2023, but ultimately fell by the year's end.

However, the numbers began to stumble since, particularly throughout 2023. The biggest drop in crypto ATMs in 2023 came from the United States, which saw its tally fall 15.4% from 32,672 to 27,631. The country, however, remains home to 82% of all crypto ATMs worldwide.
Meanwhile, Australia, Canada, Spain and Poland steadily increased their tally.
Coin ATM Radar’s data shows crypto ATM manufacturer BitAccess may have contributed to that fall, with its net installations falling 26% from 9,160 in August 2022 to 6,774 on Jan. 1, 2024.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin Depot, one of the main players in the crypto ATM space, became a publicly listed company on the Nasdaq on July 3 and recently expanded to its 28th state in the country. It also reported a revenue of $179.5 million in Q3 2023, a 3% year-on-year increase.
There are a total of 498 crypto ATM operators across 71 countries, Coin ATM Radar’s data shows.
Bitcoin (BTC) is by far the leading cryptocurrency supported by crypto ATMs, while Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Ether (ETH) and Litecoin (LTC) are among the other cryptocurrencies that can be bought from ATMs.

Google's 'Reasoning King' Also Departs for Meta, Originally Recruited by Fei-Fei Li

"Google's 'King of Reasoning' Leaves for Meta, Quietly Departing After Over Eight Years. Denny Zhou, a key figure behind Google's AI reasoning advancements including work showcased by CEO Sundar Pichai, has joined Meta's MSL as a research scientist. His low-profile move, discovered via a LinkedIn update, occurred months before the high-profile departures of Noam Shazeer to OpenAI and Nobel laureate John Jumper to Anthropic. Zhou was originally recruited to Google by Fei-Fei Li's China center initiative after nearly 11 years at Microsoft. This is part of a significant talent drain at Google, with top researchers like Shazeer (co-author of the Transformer paper) and Jumper (AlphaFold lead) recently leaving for rivals. Reports suggest internal friction is a contributing factor, particularly around Google's strategic shift. The company has reportedly formed a high-priority 'AI Coding Strike Team,' involving co-founder Sergey Brin, to urgently bridge the gap in AI coding agents, potentially reallocating resources and focus away from other research directions like DeepMind's 'world model' AGI approach. This pivot towards commercially-proven coding applications may have influenced departures, as hinted by Shazeer's comment about his compute allocation being given to another team. Meanwhile, Meta continues to bolster its team, also recently hiring UC Berkeley professor and 'security godmother' Dawn Song, along with her startup Virtue AI team, as a VP of AI research."

How Did Hundreds of Billions of Dollars Flow into SpaceX After Its Index Inclusion on June 26th? Will SpaceX Experience a Massive Price Surge?

Will SpaceX ($SPCX) stock surge when billions in passive index fund money flows in on the effective date? A common retail investor belief is that a massive wave of buying will hit on July 6th, when SpaceX joins the Nasdaq-100, potentially causing a huge price spike. However, the reality is far more complex and less dramatic. The anticipated billions are not controlled by a single entity but are spread across hundreds of passive fund managers (e.g., BlackRock, Vanguard) whose sole mandate is to minimize "tracking error." They aim to buy shares at prices as close as possible to the index's closing price on the effective date, not to aggressively drive the price up. There are two key index inclusion scripts: 1) For the Russell US Index (effective June 26th at close), buying is compressed into the final minutes via Market-On-Close (MOC) orders. 2) For the Nasdaq-100 (announced June 26th, effective July 6th), a 10-day window creates a layered game. Arbitrage funds buy early, betting on selling to passive funds later. Some index funds "front-run" by accumulating shares gradually before the deadline. The bulk of passive funds execute large MOC orders at the July 6th close, often trading directly with arbitrageurs. A critical wildcard is SpaceX's limited free float due to a standard 180-day post-IPO lockup. To avoid causing a massive price spike by competing for scarce shares on the open market, large funds will likely use off-exchange methods: 1) Negotiating large block trades (over-the-counter) with major holders. 2) Using derivatives like total return swaps with locked-up shareholders to gain economic exposure without physically buying the stock. Most of the index-driven buying will thus happen invisibly, not on public exchanges. For retail investors, trying to front-run these sophisticated flows is risky. More viable strategies include: waiting for post-inclusion volatility to subside before establishing a long-term position, or employing options strategies like selling strangles to profit from elevated, but potentially overstated, implied volatility around the event. In conclusion, while price appreciation may occur in the days following the announcement due to arbitrage and front-running activity, a single-day "explosive pump" on July 6th is highly unlikely. The major index fund buying will be executed efficiently and discreetly, often away from public markets, turning the anticipated climax into a well-orchestrated, anti-climactic settlement.
