Title: [2016-01-26] Man Accidentally Makes $1.3 Million Buying a House With Bitcoin Post by: shane on January 28, 2017, 02:47:22 AM “We got approached last month by a real estate developer,” Singh told Bloomberg Markets. “He had an offer to buy a house, and the purchaser wanted to pay in bitcoin. And they weren’t really sure what that was, so they contacted us.”
Singh noted that Bitpay has helped facilitate these sorts of transactions several times over the past few years. “We walked him through how it works and the process,” said Singh. The purchase price of the home in question was roughly $4 million. https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/man-accidentally-makes-13-million-buying-house-bitcoin/ Title: Re: [2016-01-26] Man Accidentally Makes $1.3 Million Buying a House With Bitcoin Post by: cpfreeplz on January 28, 2017, 02:49:40 AM It's already being discussed in another thread. His bitcoins appreciated in value so he had to spend less of them to buy the house. The risk he took paid off. If he had lost 20% it would have been the opposite but the opposite doesn't mean he "lost 1.3m" because that doesn't make sense. It's not how profit works durp.
