with bitcoin can I get an island?

[gesdan]

i dont you can buy an island, what cost a small island? i never heard about island is traded in public market. if you can buy an island with bitcoin i think you bitcoin is very much. but from other post above, i know that island can be traded in public. i cant never stop thinking, what will you do about the island? 

[Dart18]

Last time I checked, private islands go for as low as $250,000. If you think about it, that really isn't so much. Are you going to get an amazing location and a cleared out island with a place to live and electricity, etc.? Nope. But you do get an island, at the very least.

250k? No electricity, no place to live... That leaves us with something like this:



I wouldn't expect anything extraordinary for that price. But like you said, an island is an island.  

Haha. That is something. No water to drink you will have to wait for the tree to bear fruit again.
You can have an island but you cant buy it through bitcoin payment. You will have to withdraw it with cash or pay thru a bank. It is sad but that is how the world goes up until now. You will have to wait for the world to change.

maye if you have 1000btc )

Of course, but we cannot deny the fact that there were government who does not accept bitcoin for any form of payment, but with bitcoin you can buy anything you want even an island  , if you gonna choose to buy directly to bitcoin then look for some country that supported the government, like Europe, America and some more so you can pay directly but you can have it by redirecting buying, by converting it to fait.

[cryptohorsee]

Yes you can if you are jihan wu he has like 1 million btc

[ManavKalyan]

For now you can get a flat/apartment in Dubai for 50 BTC

In time, bitcoin can probably get you anything that money can buy. For the moment, i don't think so not unless you find an island seller willing to sell for btc. Butnjuat wait and that time will come

[dimastegar]

Of course you can. If the Government does not receive payment with Bitcoin, you only need to convert Bitcoin into your country's local currency. Incredible if we buy an island with Bitcoin. It may take thousands of Bitcoins.

[agatha818]

I'm very sure you can buy an island if you have more than enough bitcoin, and i think the government would accept your bitcoin. If you're planning to buy an island for a good cause that would be great!

Bitcoin just like other currencies can buy anything but you just have to meet the price equivalent of the island in bitcoins so that they can accept and approve your ownership. I don't think because you have bitcoins you're ever going to be denied buying a property or an island.

If you are going to pay with Bitcoin then the government won't accept it, buying island is a big transactions, so it requires all the legal procedure and documents, and with Bitcoin it can't be consider as legal transaction, you will need to convert it to Fiat before you able to buy the island

[aryaadikariyansyahsuwarto]

I think if the bitcoin we have changed with the currency is not masalaj if we will buy an island. Do not buy with bitcoin currency, there must be a ban and taxable. But if we exchange it first with the currency in that country I feel safe safe.

[Mysterious01]

are governments really accepting? thank you for answering 

I am not that sure but I think there are some countries that there government accepts bitxoin.
But in our country you need to convert it first because our government is not accepting bitcoin yet but hoping that they accept in the near future.

[Pearls Before Swine]

Of course you can. Back in the day there was a whole island in Micronesia up for sale.




Now there are many equally interesting places to choose from.
For instance this one https://www.bitpremier.com/5-real-estate/442-32-hectares-13-of-island-southwest-lombok

Brother, I'd take an island with half the acreage of the one shown here.  Islands
are even better than bunkers in case SHTF, which it no doubt will.  I'm stocking up on
canned goods, seeds, silver coins, and good reading material for that day.  But I think zombies
can still make their way to an island if I'm not mistaken.  Saw it on The Walking Dead.

Seriously, buying property with crypto is a fine idea.  I'd like to see more of it done.

He doesn't even necessarily have to pay for the island in bitcoins directly, he can easily use the exchanges and have them converted to fiat before buying so I'm wondering why he's even asking because the answer is clear for all to see.

If 21 million people in the world want to have a whole bitcoin, then we're gonna be looking at sky high pricing. Who knows have much a bitcoin will be in the future, or what things you can buy with bitcoin. If it truly does get massly adopted internationally, then you may just get your island

[lkjhg]

there is still much to buy other than the island, to buy the island and have to live alone and some employees may not be a comfortable thing, seeking pleasure around the world is certainly better, knowing the outside world with just a bit of bitcoin to visit hundreds of islands.

I don't think it's possible for now, maybe we can earn a lot that can be good for buying a house or a car, I mean buying only thru btc from poor getting rich, but those who are brn rich may be able to buy some island.

maybe you should convert it in you currency first before you can buy an island, but i think the first thing you must do is to work for your bitcoins too hard so that you will earn a big money for your future and to buy an island.

Yeah, but after those 250k comes the taxes.
You will need to have everything shipped (really shipped)  to you at astronomical prices.
Ever checked the prices of milk in some villages in Alaska? Almost 5 times more expensive.
Think about a health problem and the time you will need for rescue.

If you are really interested in buying a 250 000 $ island be prepared with at least another half a million in reserve.
