Buying cryptocurrency has just become easier for all residents of the US capital, as the American bitcoin ATM network, Coinsource, has now expanded into the Washington DC metropolitan area. With this latest installment, the company now boasts of operating almost 200 machines across the US.

Crypto Capital

Coinsource, Texas-based bitcoin ATM network, has announced its first entry into the American capital. The company will install twenty machines across the District of Columbia and Maryland, saying it received significant demand from local users and merchants. The machines will be spread in convenient locations across the area, including a dozen in Washington DC, five in Baltimore, one in Towson, one in Oxon Hill, and one in Takoma Park.

Before this development, the city already had about five machines being serviced by five different operators. Additionally, several local restaurants, bookshops, and record shops have been accepting bitcoin as payment since last year.

"We are meeting Washington D.C. at an inflection point, where regulators are looking at the value and potential of decentralized currencies and blockchain technology," said CEO of Coinsource Sheffield Clark. "All innovation over time has passed through our Nation's Capital in one way or another, and we are happy to be now servicing Washington D.C. and the surrounding communities so that they can have easy access to buying and selling Bitcoin."
