Billionaire luxury real estate developer Nick Candy is reportedly ready to sell his London penthouse apartment for £175 million (roughly $240 million); and interestingly he is willing to consider offers in Bitcoin and Ethereum.
According to the report by The Telegraph, the duplex penthouse is part of luxury residential and retail complex Hyde Park One, which is located in London’s Knightsbridge district.
The spectacular 18,000-square-foot apartment, which overlooks Hyde Park, features five bedrooms, a swimming pool, a private spa and gym, two terraces, four allocated car parking spaces, a wine room, a media room, and a cocktail bar.
Those wishing to pay for the apartment with crypto will need to offer around 4000 BTC or 102,000 ETH at current prices (as of 16:00 UTC on April 16).
Apparently, in an email to Bloomberg News, Candy said that he would accept payment in Bitcoin and Ethereum since cryptocurrencies are a “big opportunity”. He also said his apartment is “a world-class real estate asset in the heart of London that will continue to perform as a solid investment for years to come”.
