Second! General Motors is considering Bitcoin as a payment method

After Tesla launched the vision of buying cars with Bitcoin, it seems that General Motors will follow suit.

Recently, according to foreign media reports, at General Motors' 2020 and fourth quarter earnings conference, CEO Mary Barra suggested that the company consider paying for purchases with Bitcoin. As of press time, General Motors rose 0.32% pre-market.

Although GM has not directly responded to accepting Bitcoin as a payment method, it can be seen from the words of GM CEO Mary Barra that this possibility still exists.

In addition, regarding Bitcoin as a payment method, she also said: "We will evaluate this matter. If there is a strong demand from customers for this method in the future, there is nothing to stop us from doing so."

A week ago, Tesla's US official website showed that Bitcoin was now supported for payment when purchasing Tesla cars. At the same time, Tesla founder Elon Musk also announced on Twitter: "You can now buy Tesla with Bitcoin."

However, Musk also emphasized that the Bitcoin paid by users to Tesla will remain as Bitcoin and will not be converted into legal currency.

Since Musk announced Bitcoin as a payment method, it has attracted great attention from the automotive industry. At the same time, the price of Bitcoin has risen by 3% to $56,242, enough to buy an entry-level Tesla.

However, it should also be noted that the current price of Bitcoin fluctuates greatly, and there are obviously many uncertainties in the process of buying a car with Bitcoin.
