It looks like AMC is about to hop on the crypto bandwagon! The theater chain just announced that it will start rolling out technology to let moviegoers in the United States pay for their tickets and snacks in bitcoin by the end of the year. AMC CEO Adam Aron said,
"I've had to learn more in the past six months about blockchain and cryptocurrency than I learned about it in the entire decade before that. The company is exploring how else AMC can participate in this new burgeoning cryptocurrency universe, and we're quite intrigued by potentially lucrative business opportunities."
Aron continued to say, "since we had to do the IT programming to accept bitcoin anyway, we are simultaneously writing the code right now to accept Apple Pay and Google Pay for online purchases at our US theaters also."
What do you think about this?
