Bitcoin Bancorp Inc. has announced it will begin installing 50 licensed bitcoin ATMs in convenience stores in Texas, with plans to deploy up to 200 machines during the first quarter of 2026, according to a press release.

The company aims to provide bitcoin ATMs with fraud-prevention and compliance controls. The goal is to keep customers safe while still offering bitcoin services in retail environments.

"The Texas rollout reflects what we view as a broader national trend, whereby retail environments are increasingly becoming access points for financial services. And with respect to cryptocurrencies, Texas is emerging as one of the more favorable environments for digital-asset innovation in the United States — supported by a pro-business climate and a rapidly expanding technology sector," Eric Noveshen, director of Bitcoin Bancorp, said in the release. "Combined with one of the largest convenience-store and retail networks in the country, Texas represents a natural starting point for the deployment of next-generation financial infrastructure such as our licensed Bitcoin ATMs."
