I don't think they need that, so no.

Why not? Every business needs to be adapted to innovative trends.

it is like asking why doesn't the barber shop fix my computer!!!
Amazon is not in the business of creating exchanges, and their business is not even remotely related to exchanges. so why would they want to get into this business out of nowhere?
they may however end up creating their own coin (Amazon-coin) and add one more useless coin to the sea of altcoins.
Yes, that's what I thought. They could create a token on eth or something and accept it as means of payment. If the fees will be cheaper than when one is transferring local fiat and it is automatically converted into usd (and accomplishing this aim is not so hard), it might even work. However, I think amazon showed its attitude toward cryptocurrencies some time ago by sort of accepting (but not really accepting) bitcoin as means of payment when the coin was already very popular, but had no speed or fee problems yet. I suppose it means that they don't really care about it and keep accepting fiat to be safe from potential major fluctuations.

I think that in the next future not only amazon but any big corporation, as facebook, google, mcdonald, and so on will have its own currency.

I predict that faster than we think in forex we'll trade amazcoin, googlecoin, mccoin,...

Actually, there will be no more nations but only corporations... we'll see.

I think not an exchange but maybe an own cryptocurrency in the future. There are professional exchanges for beginner and pro trader, it will be hard for Amazon.

This probably has been brought up before, but anyone think Amazon would launch there own Cryptocurrency exchange? Eventually there going to start taking cryptocurrency as a method of payment, why not also get into the exchange business as another revenue stream.

Let me tell you something about Amazon, they are the best company in the world for the average buyer like you and me - who orders socks, tv's, games etc (because of their refund policy, fast shipping, wide selection and quality of products). However, they are the worst company in the world for sellers and suppliers. They will undercut their sellers if they find their suppliers and effectively drive them out of business.

Amazon will never accept payment like XLM, XRP whatever - they will create there own to fuel their own greed and funnel profits into themselves. And we all standby and watch it happen.

I have to agree that they will make their own coin so they can take as much profit as possible. It makes perfect business sense to do it. As for them making a crypto exchange I don't think that would be in their business plan but hey you never know.

They won't do an exchange. Why would they diversify that much? It makes no sense for them.

Be something like AMZ token or something. Exchange $100 and you may get $105 worth of tokens - just like a trade able gift card.

I don't think amazon will launch cryptocurrency exchange, there are already very powerful competitors but they will probably launch their cryptocurrency in the future like other companies in crypto.

I dont think that they will make their own cryptocurrency exchange and why would they do it? amazon is an online shop not an exchange expert so i think they will just focus on how they will improve their business. this is why i wont be shocked if they will make their own cryptocurrency since blockchain can help make a lot of improvements on their system or platform.

it is Good if amazon make a exchange services but we need to know that make an exchange requires a expert developers team and also must do research first.

Amazon would not be setting up domain names like it has if it was only going to be accepting digital currency as a means of payment. I think the Amazon digital currency and cryptocurrency marketplace exchange is coming soon and I think it will do great things for both.

Yes I think it is possible, why not. Most of big online services will launch their coins in nearest future I think.

Amazon has secured 3 new domains at the end of last year: amazonethereum.com, amazoncryptocurrency.com, amazoncryptocurrencies.com.
Amazon already owns the "amazonbitcoin.com" domain name which is bought 3 years ago and now when clicked on it takes you directly to the Amazon official site.

Last year Amazon announced that they are supporting the Bitcoin and are working on the implementation of the crypto in their payment system. After that, the popularity of the Bitcoin grew into the air. It is interesting that the first domain that Amazon bought ( "amazonbitcoin.com" ) was before the 3 years. Already then they knew how much popularity the crypto market will achieve.

These newly secured domains are now in the stagnation process and I think that Amazon is already working on the preparations for their own coin. They are doing all the preparation that is needed for their future in the crypto market.

Future is coming and Amazon is doing everything to embrace that future!

Buy Bitcoin
Amazon would be more wealthy if they did this. That would connect the cryptocurrency world market into the Amazon store.

Not this year.
They could use smart contracts though. Probably won't be adopted/implemented until 2019.
