Austria’s top telecom company to accept cryptocurrency for payment

Austria’s most prominent mobile network operator is now planning to accept cryptocurrency for payment, reports a tech news source, Futurezone.

Austria’s first GSM mobile network and a major broadband and multimedia services provider, A1, is mapping out a plan to test cryptocurrency payments at chosen store locations within Austria. Will A1’s new initiative propel cryptocurrency for payment?
