AMC Theaters' acceptance of Dogecoin follows viral community appeal
Following an overwhelmingly positive response to a Twitter poll on Sept. 21, CEO of AMC Theater Adam Aron announced Wednesday that the chain would officially accept Dogecoin payments for digital gift cards via BitPay Wallet. The Dogecoin community — notoriously passionate for adoption initiatives — tweeted in droves to advocate for the asset's integration within the theater's payment options. Following their success, users can now purchase up to $200 worth of digital gift cards per day. These cards can then be redeemed by theatergoers in cinemas across the United States. Aron was pleasantly surprised by the mass attention, reporting over 6 million views and 140,000 votes on his post, including distinguished Doge fanatics Elon Musk and Mark Cuban. He also claimed that the viral tweet was his “most retweeted, most replied, most liked tweet ever.”
