Santa Monica, California-based bitcoin kiosk provider ZenBox announced the new Anaheim (California) Regional Transportation Intermodal Center installed its two-way bitcoin ATM located inside Mission Market Express in the station's Grand Foyer.

ZenBox ATM will allow the station's more than 10,000 daily commuters a way to acquire digital currency.

Mission Market Express was the first convenience store in California to accept bitcoin, according to a ZenBox press release. Customers in the ARTIC location can expect special, ongoing discounts on bitcoin purchases, the company said.

"When Mission Market's owner Roland Foss heard that both Overstock.com and the Sacramento Kings began accepting bitcoin, he immediately saw the market opportunity for his business," said Timothy Curry, ZenBox regional operator, ezCoinAccess, in a statement. "Bitcoin enthusiasts have traveled to Mission Market Express from over an hour away just to buy items with bitcoin, and now the store will benefit from one of the most highly-trafficked bitcoin kiosks to date, bringing customers from well beyond Orange County, along the many railway and bus lines converging here."
