Case Study: Bitchain achieves 24x7 global Bitcoin ATM connectivity with Vodafone IoT

Bitchain connects virtual currency with traditional banking

Bitchain, a company specializing in Bitcoin solutions, faced the challenge of ensuring permanent, reliable internet connectivity for its network of Bitcoin cash machines. These machines, often installed in deep or remote locations like metro stations, needed 24/7 uptime to operate effectively, which was difficult with inconsistent local network access. To solve this, they partnered with vendor Vodafone Global Enterprise for their Vodafone Internet of Things (IoT) service.

Vodafone implemented its Managed IoT Connectivity Platform and MachineLink 3G Plus routers into Bitchain's machines, standardizing global connectivity and providing a single, reliable point of management. This solution provided the robust, always-on connection vital for the ATMs to function, as demonstrated by a machine operating 25 meters underground. The results enabled Bitchain's successful international expansion with predictable costs and the peace of mind to enter new markets, supported by Vodafone's global presence and 24/7 service.
