NEW YORK, Dec. 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- After U.S sales hit
$1.7 Billion mark in 2013, there is
no doubt that buying diamonds with online eRetailers is more than
just a way to save a few dollars. However, while ecommerce is
finally acknowledged as a key growth engine, the diamond industry
as a whole remains old-fashioned when it comes down to keeping up
with how consumers shop. While there are dozens of diamond
eRetailers, Bitcoin is still considered unknown waters in the world
of jewelry.
Understanding the opportunity, established eRetailer
iDIAMONDS.com will now allow purchase of all diamonds and diamond
jewelry using Bitcoin in partnership with Bitcoin payment gateway
BitPay.
According to iDIAMONDS CEO Dan
Gildoni, exchanging Bitcoin for diamonds is an excellent
choice for Bitcoin investors and here is why:
"First, as the famous quote says: 'Diamonds Are Forever.'
They traditionally increase in value, are a stable product, and are
a sought after commodity in their own right." Says iDIAMONDS CEO
Dan Gildoni.
Second, iDIAMONDS research found that the main difficulties
consumers find with the current diamond retail marketplace is the
over-whelming selection and available information. Diamond
education alone is covered by over 1,000,000 pages online. To
address the consumer problem Dan Gildoni, co-founded iDIAMONDS with
one simple goal: make it easier to purchase diamonds and diamond
jewelry. In line with this mission, he decided to accept
Bitcoin.
In 2014 Bitcoin adoption worldwide has been increasing
exponentially; with Microsoft, Greenpeace, Newegg, Overstock, Dell,
Wikipedia. Mozilla and many more household names accepting payment
in Bitcoin along with tens of thousands of other businesses across
the globe.
Currently, Bitcoin owners are forced to rely on online exchanges
and ATM machines available only at limited individual locations.
The traditional brick and mortar stores, the names that consumers
know, are again slow to adopt.
By offering Bitcoin enthusiasts and Bitcoin investors a stable
and trusted commodity to exchange their Bitcoin into, iDIAMONDS
aspires to further push the eCommerce revolution. For men who are
looking for the perfect gift for their spouses using Bitcoin,
iDIAMONDS is the place to go.
