Bitcoin is being increasingly accepted as a payment method all over the world. More and more companies are now offering its customers the option of making payment in the digital currency.



Sync.com, the 100% private cloud storage and file sharing platform, is the latest company to have made its way into this list. It has recently announced that it is now accepting Bitcoin as a payment method, via BitPay.



"Sync offers a completely private alternative to consumer grade cloud storage services such as Dropbox, through the use of zero-knowledge encryption. Simply put, we can't access the data stored on our servers," said Thomas Savundra, CEO of Sync. "With Bitcoin, our customers can enjoy absolute privacy in the cloud for both their data and payments."



The company said that its growth shows significant awareness and demand for data privacy protection in the cloud and that Bitcoin compliments its commitment to privacy.



"Protecting customer data is our number one priority here at Sync. As it should be for any business storing sensitive customer information in the cloud," said Mr. Savundra. "And while we continue to offer traditional forms of payment such as credit card, Bitcoin is a win for our customers, and a win for privacy in general."
