After three months, Twitch brings Bitcoin back as a payment method

Back in March, the Amazon-owned live streaming video platform Twitch.tv removed cryptocurrency from its subscription payment options. Now, just as silently as they removed it, Twitch has re-added Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash back to their payment options.

This comes just three months after it was removed, as Coindesk reported at the time:

A Reddit user posted the news on Saturday, saying that, while Twitch had allowed users to pay in bitcoin (BTC) and bitcoin cash (BCH) through blockchain payments processor Bitpay, the option has been removed in the last couple of weeks “for all countries.”

Twitch accepts a wide variety of payment methods aside from crypto currency. These include gift cards, most major credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, Amazon Pay etc. as well as some more uncommon payment methods such as paysafecard, skinscash, and QBucks.
