Christie’s Shakes Up Real Estate: Now Accepting Crypto for Luxury Properties (NYT)
Move over, fiat—the art world's most storied auction house just went full crypto. Christie's now lets deep-pocketed buyers snap up multimillion-dollar properties with Bitcoin, Ethereum, or whatever altcoin moonbags they're sitting on.
Why it matters:
When blue-chip institutions embrace crypto payments, it's not just adoption—it's a middle finger to traditional finance gatekeepers. (Though let's be real: the 1% will still find ways to dodge taxes.)
The fine print:
No word yet on whether they'll accept JPEGs of Bored Apes as down payments—but given how this market works, we give it 6 months max.
