Just unveiled this morning time , the new system functions exactly like Johnny Cash , allow users to buy apps , games , and in - app items with what is essentially a more centralised version of Bitcoin . Plus , if you ’re extra eager to leap onboard the Amazon Coin bandwagon , you ’ll even get a 10 % discount when you purchase the up-to-dateness in bulk . What on the dot “ buying in bulk ” constitutes , however , remain a mystery .
Presumably , this is only the rootage of Amazon ’s young foray should the Coins capture on . According to Mike George , Vice President of Apps and Games at Amazon , “ We will continue to bestow more ways to earn and drop coin on a wider range of depicted object and activities — today is Day One for Coins . ” But even if the project is a flop , at least we get some gratuitous money out of it .
