As previously announced, the Company initiated Phase I installations during the first quarter of 2026, establishing its initial footprint in the state of Texas. Following that rollout Bitcoin Bancorp has now begun Phase II expansion, which includes the deployment of an additional 80 Bitcoin ATMs. These units are being deployed in high-traffic retail locations, bringing the total number of deployed and in-progress machines to 130 and advancing progress toward its stated near-term deployment targets.

Bitcoin Bancorp's ATM model emphasizes regulatory compliance, fraud prevention, and consumer transparency, aligning with evolving U.S. digital asset regulations. The Company continues to position its network as a secure bridge between traditional retail infrastructure and cryptocurrency services.

As part of its expansion, Bitcoin Bancorp is integrating enhanced security features through its collaboration with Tangem, enabling users to store digital assets instantly via hardware wallet technology at the point of transaction.

The Company views convenience stores and retail environments as key distribution channels for cryptocurrency access and digital financial services, particularly among underserved and underbanked populations. As consumer demand for cryptocurrency access continues to grow, Texas remains a strategic market due to its pro-business regulatory climate and rapidly growing technology sector.

Industry research supports this growth trajectory. Independent market analyses project continued expansion of the global crypto ATM market, driven by increasing cryptocurrency adoption and demand for seamless fiat-to-digital asset conversion.

Bitcoin Bancorp believes that its growing ATM network positions the Company to benefit from these favorable market dynamics by serving as a bridge between traditional retail infrastructure and the evolving digital asset ecosystem.
