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.

Airwallex's Pivot: From Dismissing Stablecoins a Year Ago to Making High-Profile Investments Today

Airwallex, a major cross-border payments fintech, has made a notable strategic shift by leading a seed round investment in Metal, a tokenized financial settlement network. This move is significant given that Airwallex founder Jack Zhang was a prominent critic of stablecoins just a year prior, arguing they failed to reduce costs for mainstream currency corridors and lacked clear utility. The investment targets Metal, a Layer-1 blockchain designed for the tokenization and settlement of assets like stocks, bonds, and stablecoins, aiming for the institutional market. Metal's team includes veterans from Ren Protocol and Meta's Diem project. For Airwallex, this partnership integrates tokenized finance into its global payments network, providing a new settlement layer. Despite his company's investment, Zhang maintains a distinction, stating his skepticism toward "cryptocurrencies" remains, while classifying regulated, asset-backed stablecoins as a separate category. This stance reflects a broader trend of traditional finance (TradFi) cautiously engaging with crypto infrastructure. Companies like Stripe, Mastercard, and major banks are similarly exploring stablecoin payments and tokenization networks, recognizing their potential in emerging markets and 24/7 settlement. The article concludes that Airwallex's investment is less a change of belief and more a strategic necessity to secure a position in the evolving landscape of digital asset settlement, where stablecoins are becoming a key interface for global finance.

Spicy Review|Is the "Most Emotionally Valuable" Post Here? Could STRC Be the Next LUNA?

Here is an English summary of the article (under 1500 characters): This article from the spicy commentary series "LaPing" covers three key stories in the crypto world for the week. First, during a sharp market downturn in June where BTC fell over 20%, a Reddit post on r/Cryptocurrency rallying against "Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD)" went viral. The comment section became a hub for retail traders to share memes and encouragement, with many advocating holding (HODLing) through the volatility, embodying the "be fearful when others are greedy" mantra. Second, it examines the situation with STRG (Strategy's perpetual preferred stock), which has "de-pegged," trading around $76 vs. its $100 face value, a ~25% discount. The concern is whether Michael Saylor's company, MicroStrategy, can sustain the $1.2 billion annual dividend payment, given its ~$1.4 billion cash reserve. While analysts note STRG is fundamentally different from the catastrophic LUNA collapse—as Saylor isn't obligated to pay the dividend—risks remain. If MicroStrategy's (MSTR) common stock investors feel their capital is being prioritized for STRG dividends, it could hurt MSTR demand. Third, the article analyzes the online persona of "Chuan Mu," a trader famous for turning $500 into $1 million during the 2023 ORDI inscription boom and again with short positions in 2025. An analysis of his 1,828 tweets reveals his success stems from a top-down analytical framework, asking systemic questions like "Where will the bottleneck be in the AI supply chain?" rather than chasing individual pumps. His investments migrated from crypto-linked stocks to AI infrastructure plays like SK Hynix and Samsung. However, the piece also notes criticism that he has occasionally "pumped" assets and sold positions without notifying followers, creating a contradictory public image. The weekly recap highlights themes of community sentiment during bear markets, financial instrument risks, and the complex realities of following influential online traders.
