Bitnovo, one of the top Spanish bitcoin payment platforms, has partnered with Eurocoin, Europe’s leading supplier of electronic components, in order to install 100 cryptocurrency ATMs in 2022.
Spain is the number one country in Europe when it comes to the number of Bitcoin ATMs. The new installations would also be in third place around the world (behind only the U.S. and Canada).
Apart from Bitcoin, the yet-to-be-installed ATMs will support Ethereum (ETH), Tether (USDT) and Monero (XMR).
Eurocoin Group, which was founded in 1973, has offices in six European countries.
CEO Fernando Dumont describes most partnerships as a “strategic move” into the cryptocurrency industry. He adds that cryptocurrencies will co-exist with traditional means of payments.

In 2019, Spanish law enforcement raised concerns over criminals using Bitcoin ATMs for money-laundering purposes.
