Dogecoin and Shiba Inu price is poised to rally after America's large multinational theatre group AMC Theatres officially announced that it would accept Dogecoin and Shiba Inu as payment. 

Their widening acceptance as legal tender could push prices and adoption higher, fueling a rally in Dogecoin and Shiba Inu. 

Customers of the theatre chain can pay in Dogecoin and Shiba Inu starting next month. Meme coin payments would be processed through provider BitPay. 

Adam Aron, CEO of AMC Theatre tweeted: 

BitPay will be live for AMC online payments on our web site by March 19, and live on our mobile apps by April 16, possibly a few days earlier.
