AMC Theatres CEO Adam Aron said the movie theater will accept bitcoin, ether, bitcoin cash and litecoin for ticket purchases as it sees digital currencies gaining more traction, Reuters reported.

The company had already announced it would be taking bitcoin back in August, but it has now expanded the choices, according to the report.

“Cryptocurrency enthusiasts: you likely know @AMCTheatres has announced we will accept Bitcoin for online ticket and concession payments by year-end 2021,” Aron said in a Wednesday (Sept. 15) tweet. “I can confirm today that when we do so, we also expect that we similarly will accept Ethereum, Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash.”

The move puts AMC among the ranks of many other companies adopting crypto payments, although critics have sounded the alarm on possible environmental impact due to the energy used to make crypto.
