Over the past year, Bitcoin proved that it could be not only the best method of wealth storage, but could be used as a payment instrument.

One of the largest online gold dealers APMEX announced that payments in Bitcoin would be accepted.

APMEX took this decision in order to speed the process of precious metals’ purchase and extend the boundaries of such purchases.

“Because bitcoin works like cash for the Internet, customers enjoy a quick process… Additionally, all eligible bitcoin orders will be processed and shipped within one business day of your payment’s clearing and processing with the QuickShip® guarantee,” the company said.

Now customers have opportunity to buy Gold, Silver and other precious metals by Bitcoin that is called “digital gold”. This new payment method was integrated on APMEX website by payment processor BitPay.

Moreover, APMEX assures that “many customers prefer Bitcoin payment because of the anonymity offered by a blockchain purchase”.

It should be added, that APMEX encourages future customers, providing temporary 4.0% cash discount for orders paid both by digital currency and by fiat money.
