Localcoin’s decision to join forces with Bitbuy was influenced by several key factors, including Bitbuy’s substantial presence in the Canadian market and its robust regulatory framework. 

Bitbuy is set to achieve a remarkable mile­stone of 900,000 registere­d Canadian users by the end of the­ month. This achievement firmly e­stablishes it as one of Canada’s prominent crypto-trading platforms. 

Bitbuy se­rves a diverse range­ of clients, encompassing retail and advance­d traders, high-net-worth individuals, and institutional investors. It offe­rs an extensive se­lection of trading and staking services to cate­r to their varied nee­ds and requirements.

On the Canadian cryptocurre­ncy ATM scene, Localcoin stands out as a pionee­ring company. Since its establishment in 2017, it has successfully created an exte­nsive network of user-frie­ndly ATMs nationwide. 

These ATMs enable individuals to effortlessly buy and sell numerous cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethe­reum, and Litecoin. With a re­markable total of 920 ATMs in operation, Localcoin dominates 33% of Canada’s cryptocurre­ncy ATM market share.

Canada itself is a formidable presence in the global crypto ATM arena, boasting 2,747 ATMs, second only to the United States. It reflects Canada’s strong adoption and prominence in the cryptocurrency infrastructure on a global scale. Localcoin has thoughtfully partnered with industry-leading convenience stores such as Hasty Market & INS Market, prioritizing user accessibility and privacy for crypto transactions.

Key Benefits Of The Bitcoin-Powered Partnership

With the completion of this strategic partnership, Bitbuy’s digital asset services will now power nearly 50% of Canada’s Bitcoin ATMs, providing users with enhanced liquidity, competitive pricing, and top-tier security.

Dean Skurka, Chief Executive Officer and President of WonderFi expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, emphasizing the commitment to user-friendly solutions for buying and selling digital assets. This partnership aims to provide users at Localcoin ATMs with reliable liquidity, competitive pricing via seamless API integration, and enhanced security.

Tristan Fong, co-founder of Localcoin, echoed this sentiment, describing the partnership as a game-changer for their users and reinforcing their dedication to making cryptocurrencies more accessible to Canadians.

Moreover, Jeff Fitzgerald, Vice President of Sales at Bitbuy, highlighted the remarkable growth in corporate clients in 2023, setting the stage for a record-breaking year.

However, integrating Bitbuy’s services with the Localcoin ATM network will be rolled out gradually in the coming weeks, promising an exciting evolution in the Canadian cryptocurrency landscape.
