If only a Tesla actually cost 140K where I'm from.. I could probably get a Toyota at that price.

I heard someone's Tesla caught flames in Norway while being charged at a charging station.
Oh yeah. I also heard that story. It is really unfortunate as it tarnishes Tesla's reputation.

the car caught fire or not , the person who purchased the car made a good purchase. if he things the car is worth whats there to stop him. try to live in the moment and enjoy things rather than thinking about way past. who knows that you will be alive by that time.

ah man what a waste!
I dont care how rich you are... buying a 140k car which loses so much value every second and using bitcoin to do it is like a double loss when bitcoin doubles at the halving.

Yeah, honestly I'll never understand why people waste money on brand new cars when they just depreciate!

If our main goal or achievement in life is to buy an expensive car with BTC, as I see many here would love it, well BTC really did not make us aware of the potential that's behind this amazing technology. I'm here for the financial freedom I could gain one day when everything will be f****d up rather than perpetuating a system that cares only if I have a brande new iPhone, a brand new house and brand new car.
Please, come on

These are the news that sadly bypass the mainstream media. If you see it's all negative press, the common person when it thinks of Bitcoin is just confused or relate it to something negative, either illegal drugs, terrorism, hackers, cyber heists, scams, etc. I can sort of understand it since that's all they usually get, hopefully things like this happen more frenquently and get properly covered.

It will be like with the pizza transaction. In 2035 they will regret that didn't HODL Bitcoin. im guessing the savings on using electricity as opposed to petrol was the deciding factor, plus the fact they have to dump some some coin it has to move to someone to be of actual value, whoever sold the Tesla if they hold onto the coin will be a very very happy person after the halving Actually electricity batteries aren't that profitable yet, they will be in the future. I think it was a stupid purchase unless you are rich. I mean 140K in bitcoin, only in 5 years will be a massive fortune, let alone 10. Not worth it for a fancy car.

Tesla has big plans for their car batteries. Imagine having a good amount of solar power available on your roof, but during the day you are hardly using electricity, and in the evening, when you need it the most, your solar cells are not providing electricity. Wouldn't it be great if you could tap into your cars batteries, which you charged for free at work, during the night for the power you need? An average, non bitcoin mining, household would probably use less than 10 kwh during that time, which you could easily tap from the cars reserves if you don't have to drive too far.

The company that sold the car used a service that converts bitcoins to fiat money at the moment of the transaction. Its possible that the user that bought the car had a lot of money (if not you don't buy a car that cost 140.000 dollars) and could bought another time some bitcoins.

Oh yeah. I also heard that story. It is really unfortunate as it tarnishes Tesla's reputation. Loads of new cars out there are driven with manufacturer problems and people do not even know it. As soon as these things are reported, it gets investigated and if it was attributed to the car, the manufacturer will recall the cars to be re-fitted with a replacement part. These things just happen. It could also have been a problem with the charging station and not the car.

I always dream of some how getting my hands on lots of bitcoin and it always drifts into buying a car with bitcoin and getting around the banks. Due to the gangsters using car dealerships to move money around its hard to go in with a large sum of cash,so you are forced to deal with the banks.
