CEO Jamie Iannone shared that they have been looking for a possibility of adding cryptocurrencies as means of payment. However, the speakers at the said event did not provide any concrete information. Specifically, eBay has yet to reveal if it will be formalizing the adoption of cryptocurrencies as a payment within its marketplace.
Nevertheless, people were convinced that eBay would adopt crypto soon. This is because many would associate a digital wallet with one accepting cryptocurrency. After all, the term is used very often to refer to online cryptocurrency wallets.
The press release read:
“We see incredibly compelling growth potential in this market and believe it is our opportunity to win by sharpening our focus and continuing to create value through a tech-led reimagination of eBay.”
Aside from the digital wallet, eBay also highlighted its eBay Vault, which is a storage facility as well as a digital marketplace for trading cards and collectibles. This platform also aims to expand to include luxury goods. Furthermore, eBay has already enabled merchants to sell their NFTs on its platform.
