Mike Tyson made headlines earlier today after he unveiled his first branded bitcoin ATM in Las Vegas.

Although he is just the latest celebrity to speak out in favour of the digital currency, the ex-heavyweight champion of the world's decision to lend his image to a bitcoin hardware ATM first sent shockwaves across the crypto world when it was announced in July.
