"First Bitcoin Capital revealed that while negotiations with law firms are ongoing, it is also “reaching out to individual operators to reach an amicable arrangement.” While the potential terms of these amicable arrangements were not revealed, Bots CEO Paul Rosenberg said transaction royalty payments will be “negotiated for a several-year term.”

Some of the agreements, he said, could “could cover previous years and/or a significant number of coming years.” Data from Coin ATM Radar shows there are 11,700 Bitcoin ATMs throughout the world, operated by a total of 565 entities."
