You probably already heard the story of someone spending 10K of bitcoin to buy 2 pizzas back in 2010. If that story is valid then it means those were the most expensive pizzas in the history of pizza. The price today would be around 70M dollars (considering today’s bitcoin course).

It might be the worst spent bitcoin ever.

However, as bitcoin becomes vastly recognized throughout the world there are few great ways to spend your bitcoin (if you have too many), apart from the usual online retailers.

Due to bitcoin massive growth in the recent years, everyone wants to get at least a fraction of this revolutionary currency. So if you gathered a nice amount of bitcoin and want to use some of them, here are few places happy to take your bitcoin.

1. Buy $6.5M mansion with bitcoin or bitcoin cash

One of the industries preacher and investor, Mike Komaransky, is selling his 9,452 square-foot Miami mansion. You can pay with the regular money, but Mike will be happy to accept bitcoin or bitcoin cash.

Considering today’s bitcoin value, you need approximately 930 bitcoins to own this real estate in Miami. However, considering the recent floods in Florida and rising price of the bitcoin, I would wait a bit and see if the house price drop and I can save some bitcoin.

2. Purchase Notting Hill mansion for bitcoin.

If you are not much into Miami, there is a real estate alternative for you in London. The company called London Wall is selling the six-store stucco-fronted mansion for £17 million. Different than the Miami mansion, the company will only accept bitcoin as a payment, so even if you are a rich prince from Dubai, your dollars will be no good in this deal. How much that is in Bitcoin? Considering today’s bitcoin course, London mansion would cost you only approx 3200 bitcoin.

3. Pay your taxes using bitcoins in Switzerland.

One town in bitcoin Eldorado — Switzerland, will be accepting bitcoins for tax payments. Chiasso is a town with a big ambition to become one of the hot places for crypto entrepreneurs. Chiasso is recognized internationally as the epicenter of a growing technological and economic growth in Switzerland.

4. Support U.S. Senate candidate with bitcoin.

If you happen to live in Missouri, there is a Senate candidate willing to accept donations in bitcoin. Republican candidate Austin Petersen might be the guy who can push some buttons in favor of bitcoin if he will get to the White House. Longshot investment? Maybe, but it’s nice to see the politician with a positive attitude towards crypto.

5. Higher education paid with bitcoin.

Don’t want to take huge student loans to pay for your education? One Vietnamese university will soon accept bitcoin as a tuition fee. Although Vietnam central bank banned any payments with cryptocurrency, university FPT found some workarounds. University will integrate cryptocurrency research in some of the curricula. Probably by the end of your studies, you will be able to evaluate if paying with bitcoin was a good idea.
