\n\u00a9 Reuters. Such Speed, Much Wow! AMC Begins Accepting Dogecoin And Shiba Inu A Week Ahead Of Schedule<\/span>
\n\n<\/div>\n

Movie theater chain AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc. (NYSE: AMC) has started to accept (CRYPTO: DOGE) and (CRYPTO: SHIB) for online payments a week earlier than expected.<\/p>\n

What Happened: AMC CEO Adam Aron took to Twitter (NYSE:) to make the announcement, saying that cryptocurrency payment service provider BitPay helped make it possible to accept the two cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n

Your replies just might break the internet, given your clear enthusiasm and interest in cryptocurrency. As promised, the https:\/\/t.co\/SPYfKWXcwi web site now accepts Dogecoin and Shiba Inu for online payments! A special shout out to @BitPay for helping us to make this happen. pic.twitter.com\/6bwPvQfEet<\/p>\n

Why It Matters: Aron had previously said that BitPay would be live for online payments on AMC\u2019s website by March 19 and on its mobile app by April 16.<\/p>\n

The company already accepts (CRYPTO: BTC) and (CRYPTO: ETH) for movie tickets. The company also made its foray into the non fungible token (NFT) space last year.<\/p>\n

The move underscores AMC\u2019s intentions to better connect with its newfound backers and retail investors who are highly enthusiastic about cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, Aron reiterated that AMC might issue its own cryptocurrency if the company sees \u201cenormous opportunity\u201d in the sector.<\/p>\n

Price Action: AMC closed almost 2.5% lower in Thursday’s regular trading session at $15.32 and further lost 0.1% in the after-hours session to $15.30.<\/p>\n

Dogecoin is down 3.3% during the past 24 hours, trading at $0.1153 at press time. Shiba Inu is down 4.3% during the period to $0.00002222.<\/p>\n
