What are the details of the deal? Jehudi Castro, Vice President of La Haus, revealed that the apartment was sold in installments. The buyer has already made a down payment of 0,03 BTC and will make additional payments in bitcoins until the construction is completed in 2025.

What else did Castro state? The vice president recalled that last month, La Haus in Mexico sold another apartment for bitcoins. That time a woman exchanged 5,78 BTC for an exclusive coastal apartment. Castro stated:

“We are working to bring this type of alternative to the rest of the country, so that the payment methods and the form of investment are not a barrier to access residential goods.”
