Unverified Rumor Circulating That Amazon May Accept Bitcoin By October

Rumors are circulating that Amazon may begin accepting Bitcoin as a payment method this October. The rumors appear to stem from a recent report on squawker.org, Some surveys have indicated that the company would have a financial reason to do so, but no official announcement has been made. 
The squawker.org article references a mention in investor James Altucher’s newsletter. According to the source, Altucher is an experienced trader who many believe could have pre-announcement information. The article comments:

    “James Altucher has (co)founded more than 20 companies, authored 11 books, and has been a contributor to several major publications.He is a former hedge fund manager and venture capitalist turned activist blogger/podcaster and offers a subscription based mailing list – the source of the Amazon information.”

I also read about it earlier in CoinTelegraph and if this is true it's a great news. Amazon can help encourage a lot of people to use bitcoin, just imagine how many people buys electronics, computer and software everyday in Amazon. This means another bitcoin pump coming soon

If this is true then it would be a good jumpstart for bitcoin community. Amazon have a huge number of customers so this will be a good sign and can be patterned by other online stores. This will have a positive impact in the bitcoin world, hope this news is true.

This rumor has already been debunked a while ago. It was created by a known gossiper in the Bitcoin community, and should not be taken seriously.
