Topic: Walmart hiring ad raises bitcoin price to $48,000 - page 2. (Read 286 times)
Walmart is very popular, and if it considered Bitcoin as payment, that would be huge news. Looking for one person to explore cryptos, however, is far from that. "Identifying crypto-related investment and partnerships" could be about making their own digital currency or about investing some revenue in cryptos. It's also not looking very good that the link to Walmart's website that some publications provide is dead, so they either moved or (more likely) deleted that job offer altogether. That being said, I did find one job offer by Walmart (but I really don't think it's the one from the news) that requires being:

Not sure why, being the referenced link you provided having an English name based URL, I seeing the content in another language. One can always resort to Google to get the site translated though: https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=&sl=auto&tl=en&u=https%3A%2F%2Farzdigital.com%2Fwalmart-job-ad-makes-bitcoin-revisit-48000%2F.
I don’t know whether the referenced media has any prestige and punch out there, but the attribution of a certain price movement to a job offer (and this one in particular) does not seem to fit the profile of being a trigger nor the root cause.
Tip: Although you do include a reference to the article, the text in the OP is very similar to that of the Google Translated version I provided above. Since the news is echoed by the media in abundancy, it does not constitute something that should warrant a copy/translate/paste+link. It’s way better to make it your own, and summarize, question, criticize, or provide your personal opinion on the matter at hand.
That's not the likely cause of the increase of bitcoin, that's just a coincidence or an additional factor as to why the market is still going strong currently that the Walmart just helped made it go up if it really did help.
Walmart's department store chain, one of the largest chain stores in the world, is looking to hire a cryptocurrency specialist. After the news, the price of Bitcoin reached above $48,000.
In its hiring ad, Walmart said it wants to hire someone for the job position of director of blockchain products and cryptocurrencies, according to YouTube. This led to the growth in the price of Bitcoin and its passage of $48,000. Each unit of Bitcoin is currently trading in the range of $47,600.
Walmart said in its ad that it is looking for an "interested" and "enthusiastic" person in the field of cryptocurrencies to develop the company's strategies in relation to cryptocurrencies.
Establishing partnerships in cryptocurrencies and investing in this area will be among the duties of Walmart's new director of cryptocurrencies.
Walmart has been testing the use of blockchain in its business for years. In 2018, the company had used blockchain to intercept food in a pilot program in collaboration with IBM.
