Explaining that the move demonstrates how PwC is "embracing new technology," PwC Asia-Pacific chairman Raymund Chao said:
"It is also an indication that bitcoin and other established cryptocurrencies have now developed into more broadly accepted forms of settlement."
An early mover in its industry, PwC has a history with cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology going back as far as 2014.
From early statements on bitcoin's role in driving innovation in a number of industries, the company has moved into conducting research and offering its own consultancy services around the technology.
