最大的加密货币 ATM 运营商金融科技公司 Bitcoin Depot 已决定在纳斯达克指数上市华尔街 .根据 Bitcoin Depot 的说法，此次公开上市将通过特殊目的收购公司 (SPAC) GSR II Meteora Acquisition Group (GRSM) 进行合并。
该交易估计价值 8.85 亿美元。 Bitcoin Depot 的这一举措是一种将现金转换为加密货币的直观、快速和便捷的方式。据称，该交易筹集了近 3.21 亿美元的现金，这些现金存放在 GSRM 的信托账户中，将专门用于帮助 Bitcoin Depot 获得营运资金。
它还将在完成收购方面提供支持，同时随着时间的推移扩展平台和它必须提供的产品主机。 Bitcoin Depot 总部位于亚特兰大，有报道称该交易将于明年年底完成。
合并是在市场低迷时期启动的。鉴于投资者的风险偏好已经下降，这是一个异常艰难的时期。
比特币 ATM 帮助用户使用现金或借记卡购买加密货币，然后将代币直接发送到用户选择的钱包。
所有这些都可以在无需访问加密交换平台的情况下完成。加密 ATM 有时还与在 eBay 或 Craigslist 上宣传产品的骗子有关。
诈骗者指示受害者通过将实物法定货币存入 ATM 机进行付款，然后将加密货币发送到给定的钱包。交易完成后，这些假冒卖家不发货。
Bitcoin Depot 拥有遍布美国和加拿大的 7,000 多个地点的网络。共有超过 38,000 台加密货币 ATM 在 80 个国家/地区运行。
总部位于亚特兰大的 Bitcoin Depot 表示，它在美国和加拿大拥有超过 7,000 个地点的网络，使其全球市场份额达到19.1%。
Bitcoin Depot 的目标是确保通过这一举措，他们能够接触到尽可能多的人。加密货币一直是拥有货币和进行更简单货币交易的一种简单方式。
Bitcoin Depot 的首席执行官兼创始人 Brandon Mintz 提到，
今天是 Bitcoin Depot 的一个重要里程碑。我们对众多的增长机会感到兴奋，并相信公开上市可以增强我们扩展和发展的能力，以实现我们提供一种方便、安全的方式来购买加密货币的目标。
最近，SPCA 已成为一种更受欢迎的公开上市方式。 2020 年及次年超过一半的 IPO 是公开上市。然而，重要的是要知道美国证券交易委员会 (SEC) 已警告 SPCA 将受到更严格的审查。
