Topic: What is the most weird thing you bought with crypto? - page 4. (Read 486 times)

I never categorize what I buy with Bitcoin as wierd. I once used bitcoin to buy provider credit, electricity tokens on the site https://triv.co.id/id. Or booking hotels and some trivial items posted on social media using BTC via P2P. And I rarely do this because in my country payments using BTC are still not legal and are still prohibited by the government. Here I still use BTC as an investment only.

Previously in my country there was a viral purchase of property using Bitcoin in Bali, Indonesia. However, because the ban on payments using Bitcoin now no longer exists.

This is a link to a local Indonesian site which reported on buying property with BTC in Bali in 2014. I recommend reading it with Google Translate because it was published in local media.

I haven't spend cryptocurrency to purchase something because I feel their is no need to spend cryptocurrency when I can afford things with fiat  , I will prefer to hodl my bitcoin instead to spend it. I need more cryptocurrency to invest and I would not want to spend the little I have to invest to spend it just because I want to purchase property.  But in the future if have enough cryptocurrency that I can  spend I would like to spend cryptocurrency on valuable properties like landed property in the future, but for those who are still struggling to have more crypto should not spend their crypto instead focus on hodling.

People will not have weird experiences with purchasing items around unless they're fans of random items(mystery boxes) found on the dark web. Or you at least get someone with first experience buying with bitcoin, for them it is a weird payment system.

If we talking about this, then we have to also include our investment and properties that we bought with Bitcoin and other of cryptocurrencies even though there are no shops or any market that directly accept crypto payment for good and services, but we have to rely on conversion to fiat before spending it so by so doing we may have a lot to point to as what we can buy with Bitcoin in affiliation with fiat also.
But then also you mentioned wired in your post, do you also mean the absurd item we ever bought with our Bitcoin profits, such thing paying for a drink in the club or paying for a call girl in the casinos, what do you really intend with the weird thing in all of this, because if it other important things that we have achieved through our bitcoin profits on investment, that means a whole different thing entirely and for such we have, a lot to point to ranging from houses and cars, really thank God for satoshi who brought in this great revolution to humankind.

In the area where I live, people don't understand much about cryptocurrency or bitcoin, so it's difficult for anyone to accept trading it through goods or other physical products. But in the past, I also remember selling all my Bitcoins just to buy a sewing machine, and sadly, if I had that amount of Bitcoin now, I could have opened a sewing machine shop . There are a lot of things that sometimes, looking back, really make me laugh.

But actually using money for strange things is something I often do, if in the future bitcoin becomes popular and there are many willing to accept transactions to it. And then I was able to come up with this, paying Bitcoin for packs of cigarettes. But this habit is harmful to health, I hope everyone does not fall into it.

I believe that buying a plot with crypto-currencies or Bitcoin is just like buying it with fiat and there is nothing weird with such approach. I have not bought much with crypto-currencies or Bitcoin other than some digital items but many people have bought physical things with Bitcoin and that doesn't make their purchase weird. I used to be very active on the digital goods board of the forum and I purchased AWS credit codes from this forum back then and if that sounds weird then that's the weirdest thing that I have bought with Bitcoin.

Here, it is difficult to buy anything with cryptocurrencies. There is practically no single store in Nigeria that one can say accepts cryptocurrencies officially. In other states, you find stores, shops and malls that will transact using cryptocurrencies. But here, there is nothing, not even a peanut or an icing on the cake.

This is one of the reasons why we are advocating for the use of Bitcoin amidst other stablecoins in the country so that people can freely go about there transactions using these method of transaction. We should not deny ourselves that opportunity to use the format we need to make transactions.

The only thing that I reason, is that we must enlighten people more on what it means to make use of the Cryptocurrency. It's advantages, it's benefits, it's long time benefits in terms of its rise in market value.

We must also learn to expose a lot of businesses to the advantage of investing in Bitcoin especially in the Bull Run Period where virtually every coin is rising following the rise of Bitcoin. Investing in Bitcoin is yet one of the safest options businesses have right now to sustain their business with little or no lose.

I wish we can come up with ideas and programs that will impact the lives of individuals and businesses out there from this forum, so we can extend our ideas and programs out there.

How is buying a plot of land using crypto weird? That should've been a normal thing at the least. I think that weird kind should qualify as something that's not normally bought by a lot of people and when bought would elicit a sort of reaction that you normally show when you're disgusted or repulsed, and in based on my definition of weirdness, I think that you OP haven't bought anything weird yet which is the same for me or almost close to 80% of people that are buying stuff using crypto or bitcoin.

There are not a lot of things one can use bitcoin to buy until you convert them to other currencies before you can spend them. I have purchased a lot of things through bitcoin I earned in the past, but I never bought anything directly with bitcoin. Although, bitcoin is still increasingly becoming popular, I’m confident that more services will allow the payment of products with bitcoin soon. But for now, I haven’t bought anything with bitcoin directly, maybe because the products I require at that time haven’t allowed the use of bitcoin for payment purposes yet.


Most of the VPN providers I have used take payment with cryptocurrencies. I once bought a VPN with another cryptocurrency and not bitcoin itself. The VPN provider didn’t have an option of paying with bitcoin but the price of the VPN was so negligible if converted to the bitcoin value of it.

actually yours wasn't a deal  as it did not come through , and you still have not bought any weird on that .

I also have no weird buying using my crypto because there are only few stores that i can use mine so maybe i can answer nothing.

But if we are talking about purchase? yes I already Bought a Tshirt and a Cellphone from a member here but have known Him for at least a year now.

the deal went fast and good and yes will be looking for another deal if getting my interest about her products.

The only thing I bought with Bitcoin was a VPN subscription. It's not really weird these days. I hope I'll be able to buy a house someday with my Bitcoin.

I handed over some valuable Bitcoin a few years back for some magic tokens. I was told
and believed the projects behind them were going to do great things ans solve some
centralised issues and grow my investment at the same time...sadly those projects never
made it and I realise now it was a weird thing to hand over Bitcoin in lieu of $hitcoins and
it was weird of me not to value more my Bitcoin at that time.

Thats the weirdest thing I have bought with my Bitcoin.

Nah, I'd say keep that crypto and let it grow. The real estate business is only good if you have a large capital to run it. I'm sure with the Bitcoin you're holding, which is expected to grow in the long run, you might be well-prepared to invest in real estate eventually. Don't divest all your Bitcoin; use it to diversify your business while Bitcoin remains the largest asset, as it has a huge potential to rise in the future compared to a real estate business.


Just some art collections but just a small amount of my bitcoin, majority of it goes to different gambling platforms which does not belong the weird group.

Unlike small stores, bars, cafes, delivery services and digital services, it is difficult to find a way to spend Bitcoin directly unless youexchange it to your local currency or USD.
your question should be: What is the value of one Bitcoin, what will it buy in your country?
The question has been asked before, and most of the comments explain the big differences, as $35,000 may buy a house or a mansion in one country, or it may buy a garage in another country.
This is the link to the topic What can 1 Bitcoin buy in your country?

In my country, one Bitcoin buys you a mid-range car.


The weird stuff you might buy will be related to the dark web or digital stuff like porn and movies.

In a deal, 2 years ago, I asked the seller of a real estate project, if he will accept crypto for plot but he demanded some extra money for this deal. So, I was not able to close the deal but may be in future, I can buy something unique with crypto.
