Amazon listed a job opening for Digital Currency and Blockchain Product Lead and plans to accept Cryptocurrency as payment
Amazon's payments team is exploring allowing customers to pay for their orders with cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin has risen to almost $40,000 as a result of the move, which has roiled digital currency markets. In New York, Amazon's stock rose by nearly 1%.
Last week, an Amazon job offering for "Digital Currency and Blockchain Product Lead" hinted at a move to take Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies as payment for orders. The role is part of the Payments Acceptance & Experience team and is based in Seattle, Washington.
Apple exhibited a similar interest in cryptocurrencies when it posted a job position for a business development manager in May of this year.
