Blue Origin, founded by Jeff Bezos, now allows Solana payments for spaceflight deposits, which could increase cryptocurrency's recognition.
Partnership with Shift4
Blue Origin has announced a partnership with Shift4, a global digital payments platform that will process the $150,000 deposit for spaceflights using cryptocurrency, including Solana.
Optimism Surrounding Solana
In the past week, Solana's price has risen by 19.64%. Analysts believe that such partnerships could drive broader adoption of SOL for payments and decentralized application development.
Future of Cryptocurrencies and Amazon
Speculation about Amazon potentially following Blue Origin's lead in accepting Solana has increased after the announcement. This could greatly enhance SOL's popularity in e-commerce.
The acceptance of Solana for high-end services, such as space travel, may drive increased interest in the cryptocurrency and open new use-case opportunities.
