Good DOGE good :-)

Wow... If he sells it with dogecoins and changes them to dollars right away this makes no sense. Guess he really believes in dogecoin

[Slark]

So now Doge is the best alt?

I guess he does... Let's just hope doge won't fail!

I saw this posted second time. Maybe they sell their house for doge  just to promote it but they will quickly exchange it to bitcoin or usd.

No.

This is what I thought, guess he doesn't need the money from the house and his prepared to gamble with it. Brave man if you ask me.

Since the amount in dollar value is very high dogecoin numbers would very huge amount

If the person selling the house is asking for DOGE , knows about cryptos so, why he doesn't ask for BTC in the first place? BTC is more widespread than DOGE  My guess is this person thinks that DOGE is a better investment than BTC at the moment.

well, DOGE didn't loose millions to the feds and frauds yet.

so what's going to happen to doge when everyone gets sick of the meme?

Many people love dogs and don't even know about the meme.

That's the only thing that can describe his actions. If he is ready to buy less stable than Bitcoin cryptocurrency than he must believe the future of Dogecoin is good!

Or he has a lot of doge and want the value to rise. The potential buyer probably has to buy the doge somewhere and with someone buying that huge amount of dogecoins the price surely will rise.

He sure has to buy a lot of coins.

I am really glad to see something like this. I want people to embrace Crypto the same way they do the dollar. We need competing currency and we need a hedge against a dollar collapse should it happen. "money" such as this could help greatly to reduce the damage from a value issue in paper money.

[bryant.coleman]

We have no idea how much of the Dogecoins will he keep for himself. Most probably he will convert more than 90% of them in to cash. Using DOGE was just a tactic to avoid the taxes.

[Equate]

Dogecoin is also getting popular day by day
