Maybe other countries will cater bitcoin as payment. But in my place, that is impossible. Maybe I can pay services thru bitcoin

Buying a house with Bitcoin would be rather difficult since a wide range of the mortgage companies are not willing to partake in it due to the fluctuating trends of Bitcoin.

It's a good idea but you still be paying the tax. You won't avoid them.

Fiat lose value over time while Bitcoin will increase its value so it's better to spend fiat and hold btc.

You should buy everything with bitcoin, the more expensive the better.

I prefer buying things with the worst type of money I have (fiat) and keep the Bitcoin. Of course, if there is a discount on using Bitcoin I might be swayed (but then I'll just replace the lost Bitcoin with fresh fiat)

Planning on buying a house in the UK with bitcoin when it goes to the moon in next price bubble.  Buying with bitcoin will mean avoiding tax vs cashing out bitcoin before purchase in UK im pretty sure?

Im imagining issues of:

1.) Estate agents will still assume bitcoin is retarded money :/

2.) Negotiating for a lowball price will be harder with bitcoin

3.) General lack of choice, we need ebay to accept bitcoin or like a bitpay for property

Any tips about how to go about the procedure, has anyone bought a property with bitcoin? (if UK great!)

This post was back in May, so how you doing with that house hunting?

And why the need to pay in Bitcoin directly? Using fiat as a medium it doesn't pose any difficulties.

Footlocker should accept bitcoin too

that will happen if Lebron is paid in bitcoin

Floyd Mayweather should take 1 fight's paycheck in BTC.   That alone would put him near the top of the list in BTC holders.  I don't know if we would want someone like him being able to manipulate the market...
Lol he would cash it all out, he would be clueless and would just want dat dolla dolla.

This is a good way to get some free press/advertising for your listing but I think it will severely shrink the number of potential buyers for the house. Only accepting bitcoin will make it much more difficult to obtain financing and buyers that do have the assets to not need a mortgage likely will not want to take the risk of holding bitcoin even if for a short period of time.

If hes taking a single payment from a single source the source would pump the shit out the market buying all the coins to pay him that much meaning he would hold less than we think.
