Stratos Jets, a Florida-based private jet franchise, has partnered with payments provider BitPay to enable cryptocurrency payments.
On Dec. 3, Stratos Jet announced its collaboration with BitPay, a U.S.-based cryptocurrency payments platform, to allow users to pay for private charters using digital assets. The move aligns with increasing adoption of cryptocurrencies and follows significant gains in the market amid growing regulatory clarity.
Even in the U.S., where outgoing SEC Chair Gary Gensler’s anti-crypto stance had slowed adoption, a shift appears imminent as Gensler prepares to <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://crypto.news/gensler-to-resign-sec-chair-what-next-under-trump/">step down</a> in January.
