How can you get cash for crypto?
Bitcoin ATMs first began popping up around 2013 to 2014 and have since become a very popular option for buying or selling crypto.

While many of these ATMs may often charge high fees that are sometimes upwards of 10%, they make up for this by being convenient. Quickly being able to withdraw hundreds of dollars without KYC can make them very appealing.

What else?
If you’re willing to give your information up through KYC verification, then there are plenty of other options for you. Many exchanges allow you to withdraw money to a bank account after selling it. For example, Coinbase allows for Instant Cashouts of up to $100,000 directly to a linked bank account. Other exchanges often offer similar features, so if you would like to get a larger amount of money that isn’t possible with the KYCless methods listed above, check your local exchanges to find the options available.
In addition, many Bitcoin ATMs allow you to increase your daily limit by providing identifying information such as your government-issued ID. For example, CoinFlip, the aforementioned crypto ATM company, has an increased daily limit of $8000 once Social Security number and enhanced verification has occurred.
Today, there are many more ways to cash out your crypto than in years past. Whether you need some cash, want to get a gift card, or have a product in mind, owning crypto isn’t a barrier to doing these things.
