How Reliable is the Source?

James Altucher has (co)founded more than 20 companies, authored 11 books, and has been a contributor to several major publications.

One day it may be possible. But at the moment I don't think so. But I know sites like fiver and namecheap accepts bitcoin.

better of all wait and check what will  happened-in any case what we do)

Even if Amazon is going to be accepting bitcoin, is it James Altucher report we are going to rely on as an authentic news? The CEO of Amazon never came out to mention they are going to be doing that anytime soon and even if they have the mind of doing so, what we still have now is just basic speculation. The only last thing I heard was change.org sending a petition to Amazon CEO to consider including Bitcoin and Litecoin as means of payment for users which since then, there has been no word about any development regarding that.

I heard of a petition that wants amazon to accept btc & ltc. Have no source but it would be legit!

It can be very possible bruv! That is if they want to. Moreover! What makes you think it is impossible? Purse.io for some years now have been able to integrate amazon cart into their platform to enable users buy goods using bitcoin although it is somehow related to P2P process with someone with a gift card helping with the purchase. However, there are so many ways amazon can integrate this directly to enable sellers use it as an option for payment method if they wish.

Hoping that this news were true so that crypto and bitcoin users like us would have more convenience or options to use BTC. Although personally, I'd rather not use or spend my BTC in on a regular basis or for things found on amazon but it may be useful if you don't own a credit card or happen to be short in cash at the moment. This would also increase the popularity of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency as the people who use amazon would probably get curious and interested upon hearing about it or seeing it. This would diversify the world of online payments.

Well if that's true, that is a good idea, very easy and convinient for us having a bitcoin. But also please put some discounts on a delivery outside the country 

[sosobtc-Regina]

if they have official announcement, that would be true.

I heard of a petition that wants amazon to accept btc & ltc. Have no source but it would be legit!

it is true, there have been a rather popular petition to get Amazon to accept bitcoin and litecoin but a petition is just a petition it doesn't mean they are accepting it. it takes time and more petition for a big business like Amazon to allow bitcoin on their site but i do really believe that they will accept bitcoin sooner than you think. there is enough demand for it anyways.

[fatenmo]

I really look forward in using my bitcoins on Amazon. Also this would help us it will open the way to other onlines stores.. I like a copy/paste practice. When one does it, the rest follow.

if amazon accept bitcoin,this will be awesome for bitcoin holders and miners. but we had better wait for the official announcement from amazon.we hope thar by October, they may announce their official information about bitcoin.

[gyu22]

We have to wait until Amazon confirms, but anyway sooner o later Amazon or other internet relatailer will accept BTC. When they do it it will be good por BTC, as it will be more popular. Many BTC holders will use it because buying direct withour any third party has advantages: more fast, secure, no fees for intermediaries and easy.

[pikebu]

Is it real? Also heard alibaba also planning the same

No i don't think it is real even, although i hope it is real too but the op does not give any detail the source of information about it, there is no link of website on there. It will be real until there is official announcement from Amazon website,  if you want buy something on Amazon use bitcoin, all of us can use purse.io to find the products and pay them use bitcoin, you will get discount too purchase of products use bitcoin on purse.io . Good luck

its already been debunked

[dreamer81]

Rumors and fake news will always exist. Dont believe anything unless amazon says so. Also imagine the impact it would have on the bitcoin price if it was really the case? Amazon would not be able to sell anything for less than 0.000001 bitcoin

[JTASSOCIATES]

Is it true as I have started earning in bitcoins now so would like to shop a lot

May be it is a roumer
 
As site like Amazon which is earning so much with the local currency wont take risk with bitcoins

As bitcoins are not popular with the poor people who also have started shopping in Amazon

[nankers]

Nope, it's all bullshit, don't believe Amazon will accept anything until they say it themselves.

yes before any information officially this will only look like a hoax. many statements say that, but surely we will trust when there is information officially. but I am sure that we are just waiting until the time amazon can accept bitcoin as payment media in amazon website.

yup,im agree with this opinion...cause as we know amazon is one of the buying and selling sites that use digital finance that has been famous.And also there has been no official confirmation directly from amazon party about it. But I think it would be very good if amazon receive bitcoin as one of the payment of buying and selling within the site

I'm pretty sure it's fake news. The original article is basically one person's speculation. If they did accept Bitcoin, I'm sure they would need to do it through a payment processor like Bitpay. And I'm not sure that Bitpay (or the network itself) could handle the potential scale that Amazon might bring at this point. With the Lightning Network, maybe, but not right now. I've never even heard of the website that the rumor was posted on... I'd take it with a big grain of salt.

[Westinhome]

I did not hear amazon will accepted bitcoin as payment, And i think it is a rumors in the other people or ads coming up form the social media. Must better to ask about that and be secure to your bitcoin as always.
