Cloud computing giant and e-commerce giant, Amazon has recently given the latest ‘hint’ to the market that they are likely to plunge into the cryptocurrency industry. Most recently, Andy Jassy, Amazon’s CEO, said that the company considers the digital assets industry to be a “growing market.”
In a recent statement, Jassy noted that over time the crypto market is getting bigger. Jassy noted that there are a lot of interesting discussions going on about the crypto market. At the same time he expects the NFT market to perform well in the future, noting that it has already started to grow.
The CEO, who recently took over the reins of administration at Amazon from Jeff Bezos added that he doesn’t rule out the possibility of adding crypto as a payment method in the future as the industry matures. Not only that he also did not rule out the possibility of Amazon NFT market expansion as well.
It should be noted that Amazon has for quite some time advertised several job postings to fill crypto -related roles.
On the other hand, several large industry players have also shown similar interest in the crypto market. Shopify e-commerce platform announced a partnership with Strike that will enable Bitcoin-to-cash payments for all of its merchants worldwide.
