Which companies accept payments in cryptocurrency?

Cryptocurrency is a digital version of fiat money that became known to the world in 2009, after the release of the first Bitcoin cryptocurrency, by a person or a group of professional programmers who worked hiding their activities under the pseudonym “Satoshi Nakamoto”.

Cryptocurrency today is closely interconnected with the global network - the Internet, because thanks to it it can fully function.  Initially, at the exit, digital assets were not considered full-fledged money and it was simply impossible to pay with cryptocurrency. They took on most of the negativity from users who absolutely did not believe in the future of cryptocoins. However, over time, pioneers began to appear, which later influenced the development of the economy of the whole world, opening the digital version of paper currency and its use in everyday life.

To date, cryptocurrency is widespread in almost all countries of the world. Already with absolute certainty it can be argued that all have heard about the new money. Highly developed countries, in turn, began to create regulatory documents and bases for the legal operation of the digital market, and there are even banks working with cryptocurrency, as interest in cryptocurrencies is only increasing.  Now absolutely anyone can become their owner and use these coins in any way. For example, crypto purchases are now in great demand among users. You can buy a house, a car, a plot of land or any other real estate for crypto coins, you can also pay for services in this way, do charity or simply pay for goods in a store. The latter, namely payment with cryptocurrency in the store, is now very popular and practical, since digital assets can easily replace fiat money and perform the same role as a means of payment.
