There has been a remarkable development regarding cryptocurrencies, which gradually entered our lives and started to be used by people. Movie theater chain AMC Theaters, which has more than 900 branches in the US and Europe, announced that it will start receiving payments with Dogecoin, which has long been supported by Elon Musk. Statements on the subject were made by company CEO Adam Aron.
As a matter of fact, the decision made by AMC Theaters did not surprise anyone. Because, the company announced in its previous statements that it will start receiving payments with Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin by the end of 2021. However, there has been no serious development on the subject so far.
The Dogecoin decision came after a poll on Twitter
Adam Aron, who recently shared on Twitter, said that many people emphasized “Dogecoin” regarding the fact that they will start receiving payments with cryptocurrencies. Aron, who also started a survey in the same post and measured how his followers looked at this situation, reached the result that everyone expected. According to the survey conducted with the participation of more than 140 thousand people, 68.1 percent of the participants supported the idea of accepting Dogecoin as a means of payment.
When AMC Theaters starts accepting payments with cryptocurrencies, consumers will be able to purchase movie tickets with Dogecoin and other cryptocurrencies. Although this may seem unnecessary to many, it is very important for the future of cryptocurrencies. Because for now, no cryptocurrency, including Bitcoin, is fully used in the real world. As the number of examples like AMC Theaters grows, it will become clearer that cryptocurrencies are a real value.
