Why It Matters: It is noteworthy that “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” has already achieved remarkable success by accumulating an astounding $100 million in presales even before its premiere. 

The integration of cryptocurrencies into the film’s ticket payment system is made possible due to the partnership between crypto payment service provider BitPay and the theater chain AMC, established early last year.

This development comes as SHIB's price has surpassed the crucial support level at $0.0000070.
