Advances Bitcoin Depot’s Nationwide Expansion Strategy and Long-Term Growth Plans
ATLANTA, June 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bitcoin Depot (NASDAQ: BTM), a U.S.-based Bitcoin ATM (“BTM”) operator and leading fintech company, announced it has acquired the assets of Pelicoin, LLC, a crypto ATM operator based in New Orleans, Louisiana. The deal will add kiosk locations across Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, Alabama, and Texas, strengthening Bitcoin Depot’s presence in the Gulf South.
“Pelicoin is a strategic addition to our footprint in a region where we see real opportunity,” said Brandon Mintz, CEO and founder of Bitcoin Depot. “Pelicoin’s locations give us a stronger presence in the Gulf South, and we can immediately apply our scale and experience to operate their machines more efficiently. This acquisition is part of our broader effort to consolidate a fragmented market and extend our leadership in cash-to-crypto access nationwide. As the industry matures, we believe our ability to integrate and optimize smaller networks is a key advantage.”
Pelicoin’s ATM network will be fully integrated into Bitcoin Depot’s platform in the coming weeks, with all locations transitioning to Bitcoin Depot branding.
“I’m extremely proud of what we built at Pelicoin,” said Will Haynie, Founder and CEO of Pelicoin. “What started as a small regional effort became a trusted brand throughout the Gulf South. Bitcoin Depot is one of the most respected names in the industry, and their ability to execute on this transaction quickly made them the obvious choice for us. Our network and loyal customers will add value to their growing operation, and those customers will now benefit from the advantages only a large-scale operator can provide, like 24/7 customer support, a strong compliance program, and continued investment in technology and service.”
For Pelicoin customers, there will be no disruptions. ATMs currently branded as Pelicoin will soon transition to Bitcoin Depot branding, with the same functionality, now backed by 24/7 customer support, a robust compliance team, and the advantages that come from working with an industry leader.
The financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed. For more information, visit www.bitcoindepot.com.
