This is like news of a comic book store or a baseball card shop opening up in the '80s.
Time told us how well that went.

Doesn't bitcoin being subject to capital gains tax make it lose all appeal?

You can keep your stinking bit coin!! There value goes up and down, it's way too volatile for the long run.

That's the most Orwellian description of an ATM I've ever seen -- all to use a machine that converts YOUR OWN dollars into Bitcoins. So much for the anonymity of Bitcoin. Those wishing to maintain anonymity had best stick with cash.
