Lamassu, creators of a line of Bitcoin ATM machines including open-source admin software, announced over the weekend its newest bitcoin/cryptomat ATM model, the Tejo. Designed with a compact form factor that will fit in almost any location. Moreover, the Tejo also has spacious internals and can accommodate extra cash boxes that can triple its bill capacity on both its bill validator and dispenser.

Electronic locks for cash pickup

Cash collection agencies such as Garda, Loomis, and Brinks frequently demand specific auditable locks as a prerequisite for providing their services. As such, the Tejo has the option to upgrade to the industry-leading Dormakaba Cencon electronic lock for an operator’s cash collection needs.

The first batch of Tejos will begin shipping out this October, those interested can start the reservation process and be among the first to launch.

“We’ve been around for a while in this swell industry, and have taken advantage of our experience to design a bitcoin ATM with aspects we think are most important for today’s operators. We engineered the Tejo for simpler cash-collection and for operators who want to run large networks of bitcoin ATMs.”

Earlier this year, Lamassu added support for shielded Zcash transactions on its machines. In its forthcoming v7.6 admin software release, support for Monero (XMR) will officially be added to Lamassu machines. Soon operators will be able to enable users to buy and sell XMR, along with USDT and more.
