Watch out for scams!

<p>Hello world!</p>
<p>A Bitcoin ATM is a convenient and easy way to buy and sell bitcoin for cash. Unlike bitcoin exchanges that only allow purchasing with banking or credit/debit cards, these machines give you instant access to digital currency in exchange for cash. They’re easy to use typically require several steps on your initial registration, and 2-3 steps when you return. They are generally located in establishments such as gas stations, convenience stores, money exchanges, cafes and other heavily trafficked areas. This means your transaction is more secure and reliable than meeting a stranger to exchange bitcoin for cash. Bitstop ATM’s will guide you step-by-step and if you’re ever in a jam you can reach out to our support line at anytime. Hey, look at me! I&#8217;m a WordPress post being served on a JS app natively!
