The famous Israeli-American musician, Gene Simmons, has announced that he will accept cryptocurrency payments for the sale of his $13.5 million property in Las Vegas.
According to Blabber Mouth, a hard rock news website, the bassist and co-lead singer of Kiss will accept payments in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Uniswap, Polkadot, Aave, or “Try.Finance”.
In a recent interview, listing broker Evangelina Duke-Petroni of Berkshire Hathaway Home Services told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that any possible cryptocurrency payment for the home would have to be “verified through closing charges, including taxes and commissions.”
The three-story home in the Ascaya luxury enclave overlooks the Las Vegas skyline and spans over 11,000 square feet.
Although Duke-Petroni could not disclose any further details, she specifically stated that the property would be “paid in a currency recognised by traditional standards.”
The rocker has also revealed that he owns $300,000 in Ether (ETH) and $300,000 in Binance Coin (BNB). Some members of the crypto community questioned Simmon’s quick crypto endorsements.
Simmons paid $10.8 million for the property in May 2021, then listed it for $14.95 million in October, less than a year later.
Before him, the famous French DJ David Guetta offered his luxurious $14 million Miami Beach apartment for sale in June 2021, accepting payments in BTC and ETH at the time.
