Beatport Becomes First Digital Music Retailer To Accept Bitcoin

With transactions of all sorts becoming increasingly digital, Beatport is following the trend by offering a new payment option: Bitcoin.

The Digital Music Retailer announced that it will officially be accepting Bitcoin (BTC) as a form of payment on the site starting in June, becoming the first major company of its sort to do so. Leveraging the continually increasing mainstream interest in cryptocurrency, Beatport’s new commitment to Bitcoin signals another major step in the music industry’s relatively recent dance with the emerging blockchain space.

Robb McDaniels, CEO of Beatport, weighed in on the subject saying: “When it benefits and strengthens the artist community, there is no reason to stop innovating. It’s clear that, even in the midst of a pandemic, the DJ/Producer community is willing to lead the industry towards embracing new technology and innovative mediums for engaging with their fans.”

As Bitcoin continues to conjure up waves of support across global industries, it seems that Beatport hopping on the crypto rocket is just the beginning of an exciting new era.
