New Starbucks partnership with Microsoft allows customers to pay for Frappuccinos with bitcoin

Microsoft is one of the first big companies that have been accepting Bitcoin as far back as 2014 in its Xbox online platform.  They discontinued the payment for a short period due to the volatility of cryptocurrency, and this remains a major issue that crypto investors have to deal with. They resumed accepting Bitcoins strictly for their Xbox platforms shortly after. We can expect to see Microsoft expand this payment method to other products and services.
