He cited<a href=\"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/sec-officially-disappr-vanecks-spot-bitcoin-etf.html\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"13658\"> Bitcoin<\/a>, Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, and Ethereum in his list, and then went on to say that AMC now accepts PayPal, Google Pay, and Apple Pay as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> &#8220;They already account for 14 percent of our overall online transactions,&#8221; Aron points out. To be honest, this demonstrates a commendable increase in crypto usage among AMC customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New Payment System To Be Added<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Aron didn't leave it at that.

However, despite adding DOGE as a payment option for its digital gift cards last month, the company has yet to make Dogecoin a fully-fledged payment option for online tickets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The stock of memes is rising, according to AMC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AMC's fortunes changed for the better in 2021, because to the &#8220;meme stock&#8221; boom, which the company experienced alongside video game store GameStop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It drew the attention of ordinary investors on platforms like Reddit, where it reached highs of over $60 in June after starting the year at a price of around $3.
