Deloitte, one of the so-called “Big Four” audit and consulting firms is to allow its staff to pay for their lunch in bitcoin, the Luxembourg Times reported on Tuesday.
While the firm does not plan to allow clients to pay for its services in bitcoin in the near future, the company said it was pleased to allow the lunchtime trial for its staff to “assess this new technology” in the company canteen.
While it doesn’t transact in bitcoin, Deloitte has been active in developing blockchain technology for its fund management business.
PwC to Accept Bitcoin
The Luxembourg branch of Big Four rival, PwC, announced in early September it would accept bitcoin payments from its clients from the beginning of October.
PwC said in a press release it was making the move to acknowledge the needs of its clients and the increasing adoption of crypto in Luxembourg. It added:
Our role is to lead and it is only by being an active leader with exposure that we at PwC Luxembourg can understand the challenges inherent to the crypto world.
