AMC previously said it would move to processing payments in Dogecoin by the end of the year and was also exploring the possibility of accepting SHIB. The company conducted polls about this on Twitter. 68% of subscribers voted for Dogecoin, 81% for Shiba Inu.

At the beginning of the year, the national cinema chain AMC Theaters was on the verge of bankruptcy after a long lockdown. However, the company quickly recovered thanks to its strategies that involve cryptocurrencies.
A similar crypto strategy was successfully implemented by the famous Regal Cinemas chain, through the Flexa payment application.
