If you wanted to buy Bitcoin with cash in Western Japan, you were out of luck. That changes now.
COINHUB Co., Ltd. has installed a bidirectional cryptocurrency ATM at Tennoji MIO, a commercial complex connected to JR Tennoji Station in Osaka. It’s the company’s first machine in the western half of the country, and it lets users both buy and sell crypto assets for cash.
The contract for the installation was signed on June 18, 2026.
Why Tennoji MIO matters
Tennoji MIO sits directly on top of JR Tennoji Station, one of Osaka’s major transit hubs. Placing a crypto ATM inside a busy commercial complex signals a particular strategy: COINHUB wants crypto transactions to feel as mundane as grabbing a bento box on your way home from work.
