Google Cloud to Let Users Pay with Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin via Coinbase
- jiveturkey 4y agoWhat's Google's play here? This feels like desperation to be part of crypto. They cannot possibly be losing a dime for lack of this form of payment? > Google announced the deal at this year’s Cloud Next, a conference where Google pitches its state-of-the-art cloud computing business (which accounts for nearly a tenth of its revenue) to companies. wow, when did that happen? 10% of revenue from cloud? I assume because they lump Google Workspace in to that, like Azure lumping AAD. > A fortnight ago, Richard Widmann, Google’s head of strategy, Web3, and cloud, called his company a “layer zero” for blockchain and said the team is building a “giant bridge” for cross-chain interoperability. Can't wait for it to be compromised!
