However, Amazon Pay’s Vice President Patrick Gauthier told CNBC last month the company didn’t have any plans to expand into cryptocurrency, citing limited demand for the technology.

The newest domains are: amazonethereum.com, amazoncryptocurrency.com, amazoncryptocurrencies.com. Three years ago the company purchased amazonbitcoin.com, but now the site immediately redirects visitors to amazon.com.
