    Attention #SHIBArmy: Our friends @BitPay decided to support Shiba Inu specifically because I asked, so AMC can take Shiba Inu for online payments of movie tickets and concessions. @AMCTheatres to be the first @BitPay client to accept Shiba Inu. Timing 60-120 days. This is a WOW!

    SO FASCINATING! Dogecoin Poll was by far my highest ever read tweet. In 24 hours, 4.2 million views, my most ever retweets, most ever replies. 140,000 votes 77% yes 23% no. It’s clear that you think AMC should accept Dogecoin. Now we need to figure out how to do that. Stay tuned!

    Another example for @elonmusk that shows Twitter is such a powerful communications vehicle. A single tweet was the ONLY promotion of my Dec 18 movie screening of Avatar at AMC Disney Springs 24 in Orlando. It’s now 85% sold out, in less than 24 hours, three weeks in advance. Wow!

    I never thought I would see this day. @elonmusk liked my Dogecoin Twitter Poll tweet. If you happen to see this tweet too Mr. Musk, congratulations on Tesla and SpaceX. I have strived to be an innovator my entire career, but you sir are the epitome of innovation above all others.

    TWITTER POLL #2: As you know, you can now purchase AMC gift cards using cryptocurrency, and our IT group is writing code so that soon we can accept online payments in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and Dogecoin among others. Should we strive to take Shiba Inu too?

    Well, well, well, would you look at this. “Justice Department is Pursuing Wide-Ranging Investigation of Short-Sellers: Federal prosecutors are investigating whether short-sellers conspired to drive down stock prices….” — Wall Street Journal, February 16, 2022

    I sincerely want to hear your opinion, via this Twitter Poll. By year-end 2021, AMC will take Bitcoin, Etherum, Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash for online payments. I hear from many on my Twitter feed we should accept Dogecoin too. Do you think AMC should explore accepting Dogecoin?

    Many of you, and we, are aware that AMC Entertainment has been on “The Threshold List” for 3+ weeks, indicating a number of FTD’s. Some of you may be pleased to learn that we have contacted both FINRA and the NYSE asking that they both look closely at the trading of our stock.

    AMC brought in another $587 million of new equity today. A total of $1.246 billion of equity raised in May and June. This strengthens AMC. It improves our balance sheet and provides flexibility both to address possible challenges and to capitalize on attractive opportunities.

    I get tons of inbound messages each day on Twitter. Trying to be respectful, some of you refer to me as Mr. Aron. But, lovers of AMC are getting to be like family. So, if you are an Ape, feel free to call me Adam........... Oh, and go see a movie at your favorite AMC theatre too!

    Cryptocurrency enthusiasts: you likely know @AMCTheatres has announced we will accept Bitcoin for online ticket and concession payments by year-end 2021. I can confirm today that when we do so, we also expect that we similarly will accept Ethereum, Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash.
