Amazon loss widen

[CryptoCurrencyInc.com]

I think the reason Amazon loss widen is:

Their customers are spending money to buy bitcoins and spending at other online stores to support the currency revolution.

[Remember remember the 5th of November]

Amazon lost millions to Bitcoin. Their customers are spending money to buy bitcoins and spending at other online stores to support the currency revolution.

The article doesn't even mention cryptocurrencies. What are you on about?

[Baitty]

No proof that its due to Bitcoin it could be just because people can't afford to purchase as much now and also tat other competitors are getting more business stop speculating and take a look at the facts.

.

the title misleads into thinking, Amazon decided to try bitcoin but lost lot of money in testing itself...

please change title

[turvarya]

First I thought: "Good news everyone" but after I read the article I realized, it's like in Futurama. No good news for Bitcoins in here.
Please don't spread misinformation.

Yup, this headline is pure bs. It's like the opposite of FUD. Is there a word for that? Regardless I don't think amazon is at the point where it's losing money by not accepting bitcoin, nor do I think many people are buying coins just to spend them to support crypto.

The opposite of FUD would be DUF.

The title of this made me read it but after reading it I have determined that the it was a complete waste of my time. There is no proof that Bitcoin had anything to do with this and likely didn't.

That made me chuckle  .

Same. It's just click bait. I guess the op just likes trolling as he knows everyone here is waiting for Amazon to announce theyre going to accept btc.

Too many drone deliveries and not enough Bitcoin buyers.

This article is note even related to bitcoins

How can you blame Amazon

[Malin Keshar]

The loses are related to technology, but not to bitcoin. Its their IT sector doing bad things:

Amazon remains one of the most highly valued companies in the U.S., yet the business is losing some of its sheen as profits are dragged down by investments that Bezos, the co-founder and chief executive officer, is making in cloud computing, warehouses and gadgets such as the new Fire smartphone. While shareholders have been patient, they’re increasingly seeking signs that the long-term strategy will work.

I think people want Amazon accept bitcoin in their online store, not to buy IT services.

Amazon might join soon because of this article.

[Sheldor333]

How did you get that it is related to Bitcoin from that article. I don't see it. If you could point it out it would help.

[Balls]

I doubt it. Can't see why this would entice them.

He's obviously just trolling.

[jjc326]

Total troll job.  If not troll it's a total stretch to make it sounds like Amazon lost money and it was because they would not accept Bitcoin. 

[Joe_Bauers]

Amazon's "loss" is due to future investments in their company.

This thread is the equivalent of saying you bought a shit ton of solar panels for your home and had a huge loss this year due to construction costs.

[cuddaloreappu]

try these stories too

Facebook lost billions to bitcoin

yeah when bitcoin goes to moon with million dollars per coin and Facebook potentially missing that all..

[Minecache]

Utter poppycock.

[Krang]

Yeah rubbish and misleading thread, though I think amazon is probably looking closely at bitcoin.
