The streaming television sector is packed with options, leading consumers to an overload of entertainment choices. While Hulu is backed by Disney ($DIS@US) and offers a massive catalog of entertainment, there are other services that want to stand out and take back a piece of the market. SlingTV, a subsidiary of Dish Network ($DISH@US), is prepared to accept Bitcoin (
$77,136.00 ) , Dogecoin (
$0.099 ) , and Ethereum (
$2,411.08 ) for payment for all its services. When Dish Network made the announcement, it also noted that it is planning to accept Shiba Inu and a list of 5 stablecoins. Currently, only users with a monthly subscription can use crypto to make their payments. This change comes on the heels of other major companies accepting cryptocurrency in one form or another—from Tesla ($TSLA@US) to AXA Insurance ($AXAHY@France). At press time, Dish Network stock was trading at just under $29, up a fraction of a percent in early trading.
