Cryptocurrency enthusiasts: you likely know @AMCTheatres has announced we will accept Bitcoin for online ticket and concession payments by year-end 2021.

As reported by U.Today, Aron initially revealed his company's plan to add support for the largest cryptocurrency during an earnings call in early August.
The Leawood-headquartered company made plenty of headlines because of its stock’s volatile moves in early 2021 after it became the darling of retail traders during the GameStop mania.
The shares of AMC closed at $46,84 on Sept. 15. The stock is up a whopping 2,131 percent year-to-date.
