Seeing how cryptocurrencies have managed to become one of the biggest assets in the world right now, it is no wonder that everyone is looking to get a piece. Almost everyone that you meet is either considering buying cryptocurrencies or has already bought them and is waiting for the prices to rise. Even countries and companies around the world have started to warm up to cryptocurrencies, and it is all thanks to its rising prices.
Furthermore, since China closed its doors towards cryptocurrencies as a whole, the US has become the new central hub for cryptocurrencies around the world. Companies from all over the US have started accepting cryptocurrencies, seeing how there are so many people looking to invest in it. Therefore, don’t be surprised when you start hearing a lot of first’s throughout the market, as different industries start accepting cryptocurrencies for the first time.
And one of these “first companies” is the Georgia plastic and reconstructive surgery center, which is the biggest plastic surgery center in Atlanta. They are the first plastic surgery center in the world to start accepting cryptocurrencies. They are working with BitPay to accept cryptocurrencies of all sorts and process payments, they will also be accepting payments for various aesthetic procedures both non-surgical and surgical in nature.
Patients looking to pay for the many cosmetic services available at Georgia Plastic, can easily do so with the multitude of crypto wallets that they accept. Furthermore, people can also pay for services in the Amachi MedSpa as well. They are currently accepting payments from some of the biggest cryptocurrency wallets in the market right now. Even though there are over a hundred million wallets ready for download and use throughout the world. But patients looking to make payments to the plastic surgery center will have to use their preferred wallets which include BitPay, Metamask, BRD, and Blockchain. com.
Furthermore, there are only a handful of cryptocurrencies that the company accepts. These cryptocurrencies include Bitcoin cash, Dogecoin, Bitcoin, Ether, and Litecoin. They are also accepting various stable coins such as USDC, GUSD, and PAX.
One of the many surgeons working at the facility in Atlanta even commented on how the market was going and why they made that decision. He said that they had been seeing how the market has been growing as well as how much power cryptocurrencies were able to accumulate over the past few years. Given its current state, it was only about time before other centers in the US would start accepting crypto. He further added that since they have such a diverse pool of patients, he was confident that some patients would definitely find this helpful.
