Crypto NewsThursday, July 10, 2025 at 11:43:14 AM
Bitcoin Depot, a major crypto ATM operator, exposed the personal data of 27,000 customers in a breach that went undisclosed for more than a year. The company only recently filed a notice with the Maine Attorney General’s office, revealing that the leak was first spotted in June 2024. Bitcoin Depot blamed the delay on federal procedures and ongoing law enforcement involvement—but critics are questioning why affected users weren’t alerted sooner.
Editor’s Note: If you’ve used a Bitcoin Depot ATM in the past couple of years, your info might be floating around in the wrong hands. The company’s sluggish response raises red flags about transparency in crypto—especially when breaches involve financial data. It’s another reminder that even in decentralized finance, trust is fragile, and delays in disclosure can leave customers vulnerable.
