Crypto ATM Market Analysis

Crypto ATM Market Analysis

The German crypto ATM market will grow at a CAGR of 55% during the forecast timeframe, owing to the tax benefits offered by government administrations on cryptocurrency transactions. According to the German Federal Central Tax Office, cryptocurrencies are tax-free if the total profit from private sales transactions in a calendar year is less than USD 709.2 and sales of cryptocurrencies held for more than a year are tax-exempt.
 

Such initiatives increase the market share of crypto ATM scanners that help consumers set up their wallets and locate the wallet address for inbound transactions. This is usually done automatically by the crypto ATMs that scan the QR code on the smartphone screen rather than typing it in manually, which can lead to mistakes and cause fund loss.
