If the online reservation companies like Travala allow you to buy a plane ticket with Bitcoin, you also have the option of traveling by private jet if you can afford it.
The company Aviatrade thus offers to buy a private jet and pay in Bitcoin BTC.
Photos on the site are stamped with a logo indicating that payment in Bitcoin is accepted for all private jets.
Thus, a Gulfstream G650ER aircraft is the first to go on sale for 40 million dollars, with the possibility of paying it in Bitcoin if you have enough BTC in your crypto wallet.
So count around more than 3,740 BTC to buy this private jet, the same model airplane used by Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk.
A comfortable 14 seat aircraft, powered by Rolls-Royce engines.
The purpose of this operation on the part of the company Aviatrade is to attract new buyers who own Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies, and who would like to use them in the context of a private jet purchase.
A big advantage of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies over cash is that there are not yet the verifications that would be imposed on a payment of such an amount in cash or by wire transfer for example.
The Gulfstream G650ER aircraft is very popular because it is the private jet with the greatest capacity in terms of distance that can be flown, approximately 7,000 km.
It remains to be seen whether this “Bitcoin” operation will attract new private jet buyers for the company Aviatrade.
A payment that will clearly be much faster than having to make a bank transfer of such an amount.
The company Aviatrade, which will at least have received good media coverage by offering payment in Bitcoin for the purchase of a private jet.
A Bitcoin price currently around 11,000 dollars.
