One of Japan’s Largest Camera Stores Now Accepts Bitcoin at All Shops
Bic Camera, one of Japan’s largest camera and electronics retailers, will be accepting bitcoin as a payment option in all of its stores across the country.
Bic Camera reportedly made the decision after seeing higher than expected demand for bitcoin in payments. The company currently runs a network of stores under 3 brands — Bic Camera, Sofmap and Kojima — that rank as the 2nd largest electronics retail chains in Japan. Kojima will reportedly begin accepting bitcoin as well in the near future.
