Walmart has launched Bitcoin and Ethereum trading functionality through its OnePay app.

On January 6th, renowned cryptocurrency media outlet CoinDesk reported that global retail giant Walmart has officially integrated Bitcoin and Ethereum trading functionality into its digital payment application, OnePay.

This move means that Walmart's millions of global consumers will be able to directly exchange cryptocurrencies within the app and use Bitcoin and Ethereum for everyday purchases across various online and offline retail scenarios.

As one of the world's largest retailers, Walmart's integration of mainstream cryptocurrencies not only further expands the application boundaries of digital payments but also marks a significant step forward in the application of cryptocurrencies within the mainstream business ecosystem.

Through the OnePay platform, users can easily convert their Bitcoin or Ethereum holdings into local fiat currency or use them directly for settlement, greatly enhancing the liquidity and practical value of cryptocurrencies.

Analysts point out that Walmart's move is expected to accelerate the adoption of cryptocurrencies in the consumer sector, providing a model for more traditional retailers to explore digital currency payments.

Against the backdrop of the continuous integration of digital payments and blockchain technology, Walmart's entry may drive the iteration of payment methods across the entire retail industry and provide ordinary consumers with more diverse and cutting-edge payment options. (Source: BLOCKBEATS)
