Amazon's new job listing has cryptocurrency backers extremely excited. The $2 trillion dollar ecommerce giant posted "seeking an experienced product leader to develop Amazon's Digital Currency and Blockchain strategy and product roadmap". This job listing has sparked a buzz that Amazon is gearing to allow customers to pay in cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin.
"You will leverage your domain expertise in Blockchain, Distributed Ledger, Central Bank Digital Currencies and Cryptocurrency to develop the case for the capabilities which should be developed, drive overall vision and product strategy, and gain leadership buy-in and investment for new capabilities," the company posted.
Amazon however denied any immediate plans for backing the digital token in their payment systems. Notwithstanding our interest in the space, the speculation that has ensued around our specific plans for cryptocurrencies is not true," said a spokesperson from Amazon."We remain focused on exploring what this could look like for customers shopping on Amazon."
Tesla and Twitter remain the most aggressive corporate backers of the digital tokens for business while tech giant Apple posted a similar listing in May for a business development manager.
In the financial world doing a 360 degree turn from their 2017 stand JPMorgan became the the first bank to offer access to cryptofunds to the retail clients last week.
