Bitcoin Depot class action alleges company failed to protect users’ data

Bitcoin Depot data breach class action overview:

• Who: Plaintiff Quincey Hall filed a class action lawsuit against Bitcoin Depot Inc.
• Why: Hall claims Bitcoin Depot failed to adequately safeguard the personally identifiable information (PII) of its customers.
• Where: The class action lawsuit was filed in Georgia federal court.

A new class action lawsuit accuses Bitcoin Depot of failing to adequately safeguard the personally identifiable information of its customers, which was impacted in a data breach disclosed by the company in July 2025.

Plaintiff Quincey Hall claims Bitcoin Depot failed to properly safeguard the PII of more than 26,000 U.S. residents, which, he argues, allowed cybercriminals to access and steal the information.

On June 23, 2024, Bitcoin Depot detected suspicious activity on its network and commenced an internal investigation, which was completed on July 18, 2024, confirming the unauthorized intrusion into its systems, the Bitcoin Depot class action states.

Hall argues Bitcoin Depot was negligent and failed to implement adequate and reasonable measures to protect its customers’ PII. He claims the company also failed to timely detect the data breach and provide timely and adequate notice to the victims of the incident.

“Cyber criminals obtained and now possess the information needed to commit personal identity theft and wreak havoc on the financial and personal lives of thousands of individuals,” the Bitcoin Depot class action claims.

Bitcoin Depot data breach exposed names, phone numbers, emails

The Bitcoin Depot data breach exposed the names, phone numbers, addresses, emails and driver’s license numbers of 26,732 individuals, according to a report by The Record.

The report notes that despite learning of the breach in June 2024, Bitcoin Depot ultimately took a full year to notify affected individuals.

Hall wants to represent a nationwide class and Georgia subclass of individuals residing in the United States whose PII was compromised by the Bitcoin Depot data breach.

The plaintiff argues Bitcoin Depot is guilty of negligence, negligence per se, invasion of privacy, breach of implied contract, unjust enrichment, breach of fiduciary duty and violating the Georgia Fair Business Practices Act.

Hall demands a jury trial and requests declaratory and injunctive relief and an award of actual, compensatory, consequential and nominal damages for himself and all class members.

Meanwhile, a class action settlement with Byte Federal is open for claims. The company agreed last month to resolve allegations that it failed to prevent a 2024 data breach that compromised sensitive consumer information.
