While Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. (NYSE:CMG) shares are up on Thursday morning, they were quiet during Wednesday’s after-hours trading session after it was announced the international fast-casual Mexican restaurant would begin to accept Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) as a form of payment.
What happened: Chipotle foreshadowed its involvement with crypto on National Burrito Day, when the restaurant worked with Coil to create the promotional "Burritos or Bitcoin" interactive game, in which hungry participants had multiple chances to win either a burrito or a sum of Bitcoin by breaking a six-digit digital wallet code.
