Bitcoin Depot, pionnier américain des distributeurs automatiques de Bitcoin, annonce sa liquidation judiciaire sous le Chapitre 11. Fondée en 2016, l'entreprise cite le durcissement réglementaire et un récent piratage de 51 BTC comme raisons principales.
Bitcoin Depot has reported "substantial doubts" about its ability to continue operating due to over $20 million in legal judgments, ongoing litigation, and declining revenue. Regulatory crackdowns and bans on crypto ATMs in various US states and Canada are cited as primary reasons for the financial distress.
Bitcoin Depot, the largest crypto ATM operator, issued a 'going concern' warning, citing severe financial uncertainty. Preliminary Q1 results show a 49% revenue drop and a $9.5M net loss, alongside ongoing lawsuits from state attorneys general.
