At Google’s Cloud Next conference, Google Cloud and Coinbase announced that they have formed a partnership to provide a more comprehensive service to the Web3 ecosystem and its developers. As part of this partnership, Coinbase will transfer all of its data-related applications from Amazon Web Services cloud services to Google’s applications. Google Cloud, on the other hand, will accept payments for cloud services from certain customers, starting with those in the Web3 ecosystem, through certain cryptocurrencies, thus increasing the payment options for Google Cloud services. The new payment experience powered by Coinbase Commerce will be used for merchants to accept cryptocurrency payments in a decentralized manner. Payments can be made with a total of 10 different cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Dogecoin, Ethereum and Litecoin.

He used his expressions. Thomas Kurian, CEO of Google Cloud, said: “We want to make Web3 faster and easier to build, and this partnership with Coinbase helps developers get one step closer to that goal.
