Amazon CEO: «I don’t have bitcoin, but Amazon may soon start selling NFTs»

10:03 am, April 15, 2022

In an interview with CNBC yesterday, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said that he does not invest in cryptocurrencies. He also added that we will not see crypto payments for goods on the Amazon platform in the near future. However, he was much more optimistic about the future of NFT.

«I expect the rapid growth of NFTs. I assume that in the future we will add the possibility to purchase them on the platform,» the CEO of the No. 1 retailer said. However, dry statistics also agree with Jassie’s words: according to Nonfungible.com, last year, NFT trading reached $ 17.6 billion, which is 21,000% more than in 2020.

Earlier, Amazon was looking for a crypto payment specialist to form its long-term payment strategy on the platform. Apparently, the plans have changed or such integration is hampered by insufficient market regulation by the authorities.
