Quote Manhattan-based brokerage BOND New York is joining the Bitcoin rush. The firm will now accept the burgeoning online currency as payment for real estate transactions, it said in a statement today. http://therealdeal.com/blog/2014/01/02/bond-new-york-will-accept-payment-in-bitcoin/ lol... for every setback, we got two breakthroughs! All hail Bitcoin! http://s13.therealdeal.com/trd/up/2014/01/ricciotti_freedmanBitcoin.jpg Title: Re: [2014-01-02] The Real Deal : BOND New York will accept payment in Bitcoin Post by: vokain on January 02, 2014, 02:35:39 PM Perfect, I might move to NY for like a month this summer

I think it might be too early to do that. Don't forget that some of our most powerful enemies (bankers) are based in NY.

Shrem with Bitinstant for example Anyways, my move would be unrelated and more for just pleasure while I'm off for school in the summer. just visited the city for the first time a few days ago for New Years and it was wondeful Title: Re: [2014-01-02] The Real Deal : BOND New York will accept payment in Bitcoin Post by: Stunna on January 02, 2014, 09:35:32 PM Perfect, I might move to NY for like a month this summer lol...

Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer ;) Anyways, I've contacted Bond and the guy I spoke to didn't really seem to know what bitcoin was but said he'd forward me more information as he gets it. I'd probably be interested in coming to NYC for the summer if Bond has reasonable fees.

It might take 2-3 months for them to start accepting BTC. And tax issues can be quite complex with Bitcoin. >:( Title: Re: [2014-01-02] The Real Deal : BOND New York will accept payment in Bitcoin Post by: kjlimo on January 03, 2014, 11:25:43 PM I like the mention of employees requesting compensation in bitcoin
Having businesses be able to pay their expenses (such as employee compensation) will be key for businesses to consider keeping bitcoins on their balance sheets rather than converting to local fiat immediately. I wonder how many businesses pay employee compensation with bitcoin? 10? 1,000? Zero? |
