I think that is possible, because and the last time more and more people are interested to crypto world.
So the possibility to pay with bitcoin without any trace of your funds, is a good idea Wink

If this happens the growth and demand for bitcoin will increase. If a leading merchant such as Amazon accepts bitcoin it will influence every other vendor in the market and The importance of bitcoin will forever be changed in the financial market. People will no longer have to convert bitcoin to make payments.

Business is business as usual and we know that Amazon is one of the most well known online shop and they have to get into what's on the trend. Because most of the online shoppers are into internet and they figured out that bitcoin is the digital currency that is on trend now.

No one is having anything to do with Bitcoin so they can go shopping with it. The only trend is the usual get rich quick one which only a small number of people are doing and it may not work out too well for them.

I can't believe anyone falls for this Amazon shit any more.

It's now on trend on social medias and many are falling for it. Every time there are a lot of news that circulating on the bitcoin society and with this type of news, people are falling for it. And this is no doubt that everyone loves this type of news as this is a positive one. We can't assume that no one is going to shop their bitcoins, it's also a very convenient thing for shopaholic people.

Rumours like this one do have an effect on speculation, so I certainly don't mind that.

Some number cruncher in a basement at Amazon has put together the number of Amazon gift cards purchased with BTC and that should get AZN's attention, I am certain it is not a small number.  They see the middleman percentage as profit they could be taking themselves, and will probably come up with some concept to exploit this like they are doing with electronics and other merchandise under their "Amazon Basics" umbrella. 

Then again, AZN is comfortably flush with cash and doesn't have to do more than their current status quo to keep raking it in.  Will they be happy with that, or will they continue to embrace innovation?

Amazon may need to step up their game as overstock just announced their own US regulated ICO.

This particular news filtered the crypto world some weeks back and later faded away but coming out now is something I really don't want to bank on until when there is an official statement from the company concerning the proposed acceptance of bitcoin.

Reading the article further cements that its a mere speculation without anything to back it from the company's spokesperson. Acceptance of bitcoin by Amazon will give a big push that other companies will follow for sure but that does not mean everyone should then start altering either his holding or selling position for that. The announcement is expected to happen today but I still haven't seen any to that effect.

I really hope that one day Amazon will accept Bitcoin as a payment because almost all of the things that I wanted are in there and I want to buy it with my Bitcoins, and if this will really happen soon I think it will be beneficial with the Bitcoin community plus the price increase of Bitcoin as the demand will surely comes high. Imagine one of the largest and well known e-commerce website will recognize Bitcoin as a payment, the demand will increase drastically and people that hates Bitcoin will think again in using it.

I don't think it is official. I mean it would make a difference and a great one too. Imagine Amazon accepting bitcoin while no paypal incorporated that would be something.

Amazon should have accepetd bitcoin many years ago, not now. Shame on it, there are little retailers that accept bitcoin, and Amazon does not. Amazon is the biggest retailer in the world, and still, they do use amazon gift cards that are valid only at their website and not elsewhere. As I told it, the biggest retailer from the world is the latest to accept the big novelties. And they (Amazon) have some prices.... the biggest in the world.

That’s good news then. We can just enjoy earning over the internet and purchase things from the same money that we have earned. It’s so cool that we can just spend online earning to buy grocery, gifts and every dam thing from the amazon. So now there is no more worries about how to and where to spend the bitcoin. More than this it would be watchable that how amazon is going to implement the whole algorithm on their website. Do they implement available processor or create their own. Will be very helpful for bitcoin too.

I feel the news is just a rumour but in case it is true, this would be a shot in the arm for bitcoin and its value would rise further. If Amazon starts recognizing bitcoin as payment options like a normal currency, then we would have crossed the first hurdle of bitcoin not being in the mainstream. Amazon is big and it can really create a value store for bitcoin, no more dependencies on exchanges to convert bitcoins to fiat to buy regular stuff we need.

Only time will tell how this thing plays out. We can only wait and watch.

It's a clear rumour and not a new thing. It's been at least 6-7 month old rumour about bitcoin and amazon.

Amazon can accept bitcoin in the future, but not these days. Bitcoin is in gray zone in most of the countries. They don't take the risk.

This is cool. Now, Amazon, one of the biggest online buy and sell company accepts bitcoin. This is great because it makes everything convenient for us. Now, I don't have to keep using my credit cards and pay the interests for everything I buy.

Gonna be huge for Bitcoin if it's true. Could this be the reason of today slight price rise? Amazon is the biggest e-commerce in the world, we can finally say that Bitcoin is going mainstream when Amazon accepts it. This could be just another rumor but I really hope it's true.

What's the biggest company that accept Bitcoin right now? I guess it would be Steam and Microsoft, right?
Microsoft now allows users to pay for games, apps and content using Bitcoin.
Since the helm of Microsoft is held by Satya Nadella, Microsoft is now more open with every opportunity available. This they have proved by making Microsoft Office a cross platform, released MSN Apps for Android and iOS, etc. Even the openness of Microsoft is now not just in the area of the platform, in terms of payment methods they are now also more open

It's about time that Amazon starts catching up with Microsoft in the Bitcoin master race and start allowing purchaces with bitcoins. Bitcoins are still growing now and the potential for further investments increases day by day. Amazom will greatly benefit from this just like how Microsoft is enjoying the benefits of accepting bitcoins.

I think all of this Amazon news are nonsense. Transfer fees are too much for BTC. The reasonable trading coin could not be Bitcoin, but some other fast transferable coin can be.  Smiley

using a decentralized cash that nobody can control and keeps your anonymity and also is cheap (despite what you think) is not something that normal people ignore.

No way ! If the current BTC pump is because of this rumor, people are stupidest than I even thinked

it has not been a pump but a rally and not it was not because of this news although it may have caused a $100 rise at some point Cheesy
this news was debunked as soon as it came out and it was never a "sure thing" either. they always said Amazon "MAY" accept bitcoin not that they plan, or at least that is the news i heard.
