Ferrari to Accept Cryptocurrency Payments in Europe from July

法拉利將從 7 月起在歐洲接受加密貨幣支付

Renowned Italian luxury sports car manufacturer Ferrari plans to implement cryptocurrency payments for European customers by the end of July, as reported by Reuters.

根據路透社報道，義大利著名豪華跑車製造商法拉利計劃在 7 月底前為歐洲客戶實施加密貨幣支付。

Ferrari initially introduced cryptocurrency payments in the U.S. last October, recognizing the evolving financial preferences of its affluent clientele. In the U.S., customers can utilize Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USD Coin (USDC) through the payment processor BitPay.

法拉利於去年 10 月首次在美國引入了加密貨幣支付，並認識到其富裕客戶不斷變化的財務偏好。在美國，客戶可以透過支付處理器 BitPay 使用比特幣、以太坊和美元硬幣 (USDC)。

The availability of BitPay for European dealerships remains to be confirmed. Ferrari intends to expand cryptocurrency payments to dealerships in other regions in the future.

BitPay 對歐洲經銷商的可用性仍有待確認。法拉利打算未來將加密貨幣支付範圍擴大到其他地區的經銷商。

Rival carmaker Lamborghini also accepts digital assets at its Newport Beach dealership. Additionally, authorized dealers for brands like Porsche and Bentley offer cryptocurrency payment options.

競爭對手汽車製造商蘭博基尼也在紐波特比奇經銷店接受數位資產。此外，保時捷和賓利等品牌的授權經銷商也提供加密貨幣支付選項。

Although luxury cars constitute a niche market, cryptocurrency payments are gradually gaining traction among select car companies. Tesla, an electric vehicle manufacturer, briefly accepted Bitcoin for vehicle purchases but later discontinued it due to environmental concerns. Despite this setback, Tesla CEO Elon Musk's recent "laser eyes" profile picture has sparked speculation about the company potentially resuming Bitcoin acceptance. Notably, Tesla also accepts Dogecoin for certain merchandise purchases.

儘管豪華車構成了一個利基市場，但加密貨幣支付正在逐漸受到特定汽車公司的青睞。電動車製造商特斯拉曾短暫接受比特幣購買汽車，但後來因環境問題而停止了。儘管遭遇了這一挫折，特斯拉執行長馬斯克最近的「雷射眼」頭像還是引發了對該公司可能恢復接受比特幣的猜測。值得注意的是，特斯拉也接受狗狗幣購買某些商品。
