According to a recent survey of 1,000 Amazon customers by LendEDU, 51.7%, answered ‘yes’ to the idea of using an Amazon-created cryptocurrency for purchases on the website. That went up to 58.27% for Amazon Prime. Only 1 in 5 opposed the idea. Amazon registered three virtual currency-related domain names in NOvember 2017: amazonethereum.com, amazoncryptocurrency.com, amazoncryptocurrencies.com. However, the speculation a crypto-related move was imminent was thwarted when Amazon said it registered the domains to protect its brand name. |
