Bitcoin Depot Opens Crypto ATM Operations in Hong Kong — First Asia Expansion

Published at 2025-11-14 07:13:25

Bitcoin Depot (NASDAQ: BTM) announced on Nov. 14, 2025 that it has launched crypto ATM operations in Hong Kong, its first expansion into the Asian market. The rollout introduces cash-to-crypto kiosks across the city, giving residents and travelers a physical on-ramp to buy Bitcoin (BTC) and other supported assets quickly and in person.

The move extends Bitcoin Depot's footprint beyond its established U.S. presence and highlights persistent demand for in-person crypto access in major travel and retail hubs. Entering Hong Kong — a market positioning itself as a regional crypto center — could help the company reach tourists and local traders seeking fast fiat-to-BTC conversions, while broader regulatory clarity and consumer uptake will shape how quickly the network grows.
