Amazon used to accept btc in the past but later they stopped accepting btc as their mode of payment as the value of the btc is not stable and they fear that they might have some kind of loss if they continue accepting btc as it is a virtual currency and its market changes every now and then and they are not ready to accept it but there are alternative website and online shopping web page which accept btc as their mode of payment.You can even buy amazon product from an alternative web site named purse.io and make payment via btc its already being used by lot of people and so you don't have to wait for a day so that Amazon restart accepting btc.

Wait a minute, when did Amazon accept BTC? Never heard about this...

Bitcoin will have a great face lift if well known company like Amazon will accept bitcoin as their payment method, before now I have cone across some threads in bitcointalk that if related to this and some rumors going around that Amazon is already accepting bitcoin. This speculation and rumors can only be believed if only Amazon can come out to issue an official statement concerning this, I read an article about how Amazon is already working toward accepting cryptocurrencies and inline with that their have bought three domain which are crypto related. So very soon something good will come out.

I don't think amazon will accept btc .in the past amazon used to accept btc and later they stopped due to the change in the market value.

"In the past amazon used to accept" from where have you pulled out this information. To my prior knowledge they haven't ever accepted any cryptocurrency nor bitcoin itself. Prove me wrong but I think that you have mixed this maybe with steam which stopped with their support for bitcoin payments but that's for different topic.

Anyway they don't lose much even if they don't accept bitcoin, simple because it's more of an speculative asset for the time being.

Long ago itself new has been getting circulated that bitcoin is being accepted by Amazon. I haven't come across any such official information from Amazon. Because if that has taken place officially, by now the growth of bitcoin could have reached a step ahead than the present. This is all because of the ease of spreading and people have an increased trust as an large scale industry is supporting.

I think Amazon will support crypto of some kind in 2018. Only makes sense. They want to make it easy as possible to buy from them. They see huge increase in crypto market cap. Also would not be surprised if they launch their own coin. Bezos wants it all. Cheesy

New Era of Freelancing

I've read something about Amazon will now enter blockchain technology. I saw that they bought a website with ethereum.com in the end of its website. And this could really affect Bitcoin. If the largest online shop in the world enters blockchain and create their own token, then Bitcoin may not have a chance to be accepted as payment in Amazon.

Do you think Amazon will accept bitcoin (in this year or next future )?

News is spreading that Amazon may accept bitcoin as a crytocurrency in the near future. I think amazon is already collaborating on this issue. They are already in the process of fixing up things and finalizing it then they will launch it by the next two years. We keep on hoping.

Yes i think AMAZON can accept bitcoin. I read the news about that. But i dont know when. bitcoin users in this world still less then the people who use bitcoin for shop in this site

I also read this news but I think it's fake. It is possible to guide Amazon is considering such a possibility in the future but this review may last several years and will never end. It seems to me that each of us must make a contribution to the development of the bitcoin community. When the community attains critical mass, all the major players will be in the queue for membership.

Price stability might be a big reason to avoid the usage of bitcoin by large scale business people as a means of payment. Also several large business firms make an acceptance and soon stop the service when they didn't get the expected business through the same. Other hand I haven't come across any such official statement from Amazon stating their acceptance of bitcoin.

Well, the rumor is already there.Amazon may have no plan to accept cryptocurrency now, but Amazon’s attitude matters greatly. It’s reasonable to assume that if Amazon eventually accepts cryptocurrency, the entire market could be lifted.

Note, on October 31, Amazon registered three domains related to cryptocurrency, sparking speculation that Amazon may soon begin accepting cryptocurrency. The domains are amazonethereum.com, amazoncryptocurrency.com, and amazoncryptocurrencies.com. Amazon already owns the “amazonbitcoin.com” domain name.

This is not the first time a rumor has circulated that Amazon will accept digital currency. A few weeks ago, there was news based on sources in Silicon Valley reporting that Amazon could soon integrate Bitcoin as a payment option.

That's a bit strange for me. How people are taking it seriously. The amazon gives mass adoption or advertisement to the bitcoin and that's okay. But it seems the amazon try to divided the market. And it just like the amazon try to build an public opinion about the amazon try to adopt the crypto because the amazon already bought some domain related to the crypto. But remember the amazon can change the plan anytime. Remember that's waste our time to bet on the rumor.

maybe the OPs expressing how greatful. To the bitcoin community if amazon accepted the crypto as mode of payments and i see no wrong upon that attitude as we all know that amazon is one of the biggest company that provides households materials so it is a big benefits for us crypto people having them as one options for buying.lets just all wait what would happen soon besides doesnt affect the market by that issue

I think yes, bitcoin and amazon would jive well since it bitcoin is very efficient as a mode of payment in most online transaction. I think it would benefit amazon well since they will open more payment options for their customers and retailers themselves and its good to have variety from time to time. Amazon will adapt bitcoins in one way or the other just as other online markets and services do.

It seems to me that Amazon would not be the first in making payment of the bitcoin. It seems to me that the top managers of the company are not oriented in the modern world. They use the topic of bitcoin for self-promotion. This allows them to be free in the top of the news. It seems to me that a little time will pass and people will stop paying attention to the news. This niche will be filled by someone else.

You think they are not oriented ? These guys know so much than you can imagine but you cannot just expect them to quickly embrace it just like that when it is still in its early stage, looking at its level of volatility.

However, we have to understand that purse has been doing something related to this with the use of escrow and it is just a matter of time before you see people getting used to it, once amazon hit their own ecosystem with the digital currency.

It is really an example and with the fact that amazon is a giant player in the FMCG industry, it would really drive others and even the smaller ones, to start going through with it as time goes on and as it gets broaden. There would be a lot of benefit to this and for everyone who has some bitcoins now and for those who will even get in later as it would make payment means for products most especially across the borders very easy.

I think amazon will still "watch & wait" until some other companies accept bitcoin or other cryptos which have lower fees and used by a lot of people (speaking of at least 10 million users)

Amazon having a famous on selling books until to giant e-commerce and bitcoin most probably belongs to e-commerce. Furthermore we can not deny that amazon will soon to adopt bitcoin. But the stages now are having examine it and waiting for the right time conforming that it will surely a successful achievement to both of them.

For me its difinitely yes. I think bitcoin will be the most used crypto in the next future in world market.

If it is possible then many companies will start implementing their own assert in terms of cryptocurrency by following the rules and regulations of the government. Then it is very good to people using those instead of Fiat currency.
