The number of Bitcoin ATMs worldwide increased by more than 1,000 during the first half of 2025, marking a notable uptick in crypto infrastructure growth despite regional fluctuations.
As per data published in the Finbold H1 2025 Cryptocurrency Market Report, the total number of crypto ATMs rose from 37,722 on January 1 to 38,726 by June 30, representing a net increase of 1,004 machines globally.
United States rebounds after Q1 dip
The most notable turnaround came from the United States, which started the year on the back foot. In Q1 2025, the U.S. saw a net decline of 185 Bitcoin ATMs, dropping from 30,119 to 29,934. However, this trend reversed sharply in Q2, with the U.S. adding 513 new ATMs, bringing the total back up to 30,447 by the end of June.
It is worth pointing out that this recovery aligns with broader bullish sentiment in the American market following improving regulatory clarity and growing institutional participation.
Australia leads growth
Australia was the top gainer in relative terms, adding 491 new ATMs in H1, 272 in Q1 and 219 more in Q2. The country’s total ATM count rose from 1,385 to 1,876, reflecting rising retail adoption and favorable fintech conditions.
Canada added a total of 245 ATMs in H1, split nearly evenly with 122 new ATMs in Q1 and 123 in Q2. Meanwhile, Europe saw a more modest but steady increase, adding 86 ATMs in Q1 and 63 more in Q2, for a total H1 gain of 149.
