It Is Very Possible That Amazon Might End Up Accepting Payments in Bitcoin

Amazon has registered three new domains related to cryptocurrency, prompting speculation it may be about to announce a move into the sector.

The company has not made an announcement regarding the reason for the registrations, but it could be preparing to accept the currencies as payment or launching an exchange for customers to purchase them.
Amazon's legal department is listed as the registrant for the .com domains amazonethereum, amazoncryptocurrency, and amazoncryptocurrencies.

The digital cash hit a value of over £4,780 ($6,338) on Tuesday afternoon - an increase of almost 50% since September - with gains of more than 710% since Halloween in 2016.
