Bitcoins, an online currency, is about to get real. RoboCoin, a digital kiosk that allows people to buy and sell Bitcoins for cash, will be unveiled later this year in Vancouver. RoboCoin will function essentially as an ATM. Las Vegas brothers Mark and John Russell, who run a company that builds software for traditional ATMs, are behind that new Bitcion digital kiosk. The Russell brothers do not expect to run RoboCoin themselves, rather they will sell individual machines to operating partners. 

Check out this video demonstrating RoboCoin.
