Amazon completed a survey recently on 1K users and 51.7 percent of respondents voted positive for Amazon's own crypto. What do you think? Will Amazon bring their own crypto? or that was just another survey?

it seems amazon step to create a payment method using cryptocurrency proves that blockchain technology has been seen by amazon founder and it is certain this could slightly affect the price of cryptocurrency because buyers can use bitcoin and exchange artificial cryptocurrency amazon to make payment.

I think it would be great for Amazon to have its own coin, or partner with a company like PayPal to move to a more decentralized infrastructure. 51.7% isn't an overwhelming majority by any means but its interesting to know that (assuming this poll was accurate, no bias) half of the people asked were interested. I also believe that if a company like Amazon would adopt and accept blockchain tech, main street users might become more enthusiastic about it as well.

Amazon have powerful system support by expert team and have huge money, nothing impossible even I believe Amazon not interesting with crypto. I heard this company has issue right now and must find solution before too late, if I'm not wrong about fake buyer to increase seller product preview. Finish their problem is more important than crypto, I think Amazon will not crate their own crypto.

Many companies tend now to use blockchain technologies, plus it is a good way to cheat on taxes. So I think for Amazon it could be an interesting project.

One of main ideas of cryptocurrencies is creation of a decentralized world without state regulators and large financial corporations. Why do we need a centralized amazon-coin. I have no desire to fatten the richest billionaire's pockets.

If amazon issues its own digital encryption currency, the development of its e-commerce is a very favorable opinion!

There are a lot of amazon users in the world. If you use your own digital encryption currency on amazon shopping, it will be very helpful for the promotion of amazon digital encryption currency!

I think this is a bad news, because it will be a competitor to bitcoin, Amazon is a big company that accepts payments through online, so the chances of bitcoin to be accepted by amazon as payment for their product will go back to zero if they would create their own currency. Amazon coins would not be fully sucessful compared to btc because their company was centralized..

I don't think it will compete Bitcoin from any possible corner, I guess it will be another crypto that would get much more popular than other altcoins for Amazon's backup. but Bitcoin will remain the god of cryptos.

Amazon is centralized company -> they don't need own decentralized crypto

I don't know how they are going to run that but I agree with you they are a centralized company and they want to control everything within their business, but with cryptocurrency they are not going to be in charged or control everything if they decide to go decentralized cryptocurrency

That really sounds impossible. I'm pretty sure that Amazon will not taking the risk of building their own crypto currency that will affect their credibility and service level in terms of online shopping. They might be abuse by many if the issue is their own altcoins. We also have to keep in mind that scammers and fraudulent activity makers are now an online shoppers.

Being a leader in online retailing, the store ranks first. Any beginning of reception Amazon'om kriptovaljuty, for certain will provoke a huge splash in support.
One of the reasons Amazon can avoid the introduction of crypto currency is the limited transaction speed. Take a look at the two main features of the crypto currency:
Bitcoin: 7 transactions per second.
Ethereum: 15 transactions per second.
Amazon peaked at 600 transactions per second, during last year's sale. If even a part of their users decided to pay using crypto currency, in the long run, consumers would be stuck waiting for the transactions to be completed. The technical giant is not alien to innovative solutions. Bitcoin and Ethereum are currently too slow to support Amazon requirements, but other cryptovariants are not. Altcoin called "ripple" will provide speeds of up to 1500 transactions per second.

Amazon is a leader in the Retail field..Forbes stated that Bezos is the richest man of the world at the moment...and the secret of Amazon success is that they always try to do anything by themselves for themselves..indeed i have heard that Bezos is planning to start its own shipping company to help Amazon shipments to be more reliable and efficient...if i now think about Amazon adopting cryptocurrencies in the future i can tell that they will do it for sure and like always the will use their own Amazon coin...but i am not sure if this will happen in the very next future.

I hope it well, Because if they accepted in crypto as payment maybe it was easy for us to pay on them. Actually if they accept a crypto in the amazon maybe they earn also some profit from but they need to hold it cause sometimes the crypto will going down and also up.

it can be since amazon is a leading online shop they should have to adapt in the trend and not only the trend but they need also to supply the convenient way of payment of their customer , since bitcoin gain a huge popularity amazon should be part of it .

I read that, and I don't know. That would be a huge hit for them, so who knows. They are aware of the crypto mania, and people are ready to jump on anything that has a blockchain behind it, and there is a huge hype around the blockchain revolution. So if a big name like amazon, or facebook decide to create their own coin, everyone will go crazy about it, because they have the technology hype, backed by a trusted company, so it will be huge and it would give them a lot of profit.

I actually think Amazon has the clout necessary to pull off such a thing on a wide scale, perhaps not as their sole payment system, but definitely as an accessory system, such as a replacement for their gift card and gift balance system. If this actually happened, I would be a day one investor, as Amazon takes over every market they enter.

I think if Amazon really creates its cryptocurrency, then this will be one of the most successful projects of all time.
Small sample size, essentially meaningless poll taken. Just because they create a crypto won't make it successful. I personally hate all centralized coins and if they come out with one I will hate it, unless they find a way to make it fair, decentralized, and secure.

Well, I think that Amazon liked the resonance gained with Refereum (with Twitch) and now is thinking about its own coin. That should bring some interesting news I suppose, obviously in its shop, we’ll be able to buy everything from it. I don’t think that will be a opening to others cryptos though, Amazon is still a company and want to keep its own space, like they did with Kindle’s ebook, you can’t open them without their proprietary reader.
I’m ready to welcome Amazon in this business, should be a nice thing.

I'm not sure amazon will make crypto, most likely is the survey. but how the survey works and the interest of people to use amazon coins. there are several possibilities, but at this point the choice people will be more interested in other crypto that has been there before.

It wont matter. Most of the buyers will still be the ones who live in USA.
It is like they just created a coin and will have no usage at all but just change your USD to an online one.
Used for buying items in Amazon that will just make it confusing when trying to convert USD with the Amazon coin.

I would rather let it stay the same way or else they are risking to lose some customers instead of adding more.
I've ordered plenty of goods from amazon and it accept overseas shipping, basically not only USA but they serve USA customers ahead anyone else I guess, just see how they differentiate the website specialised for U.S people and outside U.S.
However if amazon do release an amazon coin, you will not going to have a hard time with all those issues you mentioned, it's like they will make their own payment gateway.

51.7 percent of respondents voted positive for Amazon's own crypto.
This result shows that half of Amazon customers are against the idea ( and I think this category should not be negligible ) .
For me I think there is no necessity for such shopping coin since Amazon is a centralised company , or if they want to use crypto , they can use either BTC or any other altcoin.

Yes, Amazon accepting Bitcoins (if they) would be great.

I think Amazon will soon pay the order by bitcoin. I think they are in the stage of thinking about accepting bitcoin for payment. Will be very convenient for the payment of items with customers. Customers will not need to spend time converting coins to pay bills. And that will attract more consumers shopping on amazon.

yeah, that could be helpful to users.

51.7 percent of respondents voted positive for Amazon's own crypto.
This result shows that half of Amazon customers are against the idea ( and I think this category should not be negligible ) .
For me I think there is no necessity for such shopping coin since Amazon is a centralised company , or if they want to use crypto , they can use either BTC or any other altcoin.

Rumors about this have been spreading for a long time. I do not believe that it will be done. Only earlier they said that they would accept bitcoins for payment. They will never take actions that could damage their relationship with the government. It seems to me that Amazon is using a popular cryptocurrency theme for its PR.

The way I see it, Amazon creating their own cryptocurrency would be worthwhile if it surpasses the amazon ecosystem, creating a global coin rather than a token, and using its tremendous user base and infrastructure as a kick-off for it.

I am not sure about a token of their own used only within the Amazon system. What Amazon want´s is to sell and therefore the more currency options available to the user the easier, having nevertheless to tackle price fluctuation in a serious manner so that products are not purchased cheaper in one currency than another.

Amazon completed a survey recently on 1K users and 51.7 percent of respondents voted positive for Amazon's own crypto. What do you think? Will Amazon bring their own crypto? or that was just another survey?

as a US based company, I'm not sure that would happen anytime soon even if they were interested. SEC is a very dangerous opponent, you don't want to make mistakes, especially when it comes to companies like amazon

I think Amazon will soon pay the order by bitcoin. I think they are in the stage of thinking about accepting bitcoin for payment. Will be very convenient for the payment of items with customers. Customers will not need to spend time converting coins to pay bills. And that will attract more consumers shopping on amazon.

Amazon is centralized company -> they don't need own decentralized crypto

Yes you had a point but the latest news I heard and saw in social medias that amazon pay had some rumors partnership with UTRUST a.k.a UTK. Well this is not for sure or final announcement but if this one really confirms UTRUST will go to the moon easily.

Amazon coin would certainly get my wife's attention.  She has a passing interest right now, mostly just occasionally asks me if we are rich yet.

latest news i iheard with this amazon company is tying up with one of the potential cryptocurrency in the future,
UTRUST the new and better PAYPAL of cryptocurrency.
You trust is focused on their platform as a paypal but we will experience the best out of it.

I actually believe a cryptocurrency token would make a lot of sense for amazon and would have a lot of synergy with their platform, however Jeff Bezos does not seem to be very supportive of doing something like this at this stage however this may change in time.
