If the news is authentic then it will be one of the best achievements of bitcoin. But I have a little bit doubt is amazon accepted bitcoin to buy products? Amazon is one of the largest e-commerce sites we know so now, people will buy something on Amazon by using bitcoin. Thanks, Amazon for accepting bitcoin.
It is not Amazon accepting bitcoin, but an independent service (with an uncertain and shady reputation) providing payments in USD for you, while you pay them in bitcoin. It is something completely different, wouldn't you think?
Yes, but the idea of the concept still remains to pay in amazon with your bitcoins
