Tesla made plenty of headlines recently when they announced they’ve made it possible to purchase their cars with Bitcoin. But this company was not the first to offer customers payment methods in cryptocurrencies.
I have listed various other dealerships located mainly in the United States which have started accepting crypto payments as early as 2015.
Let’s see what kind of cars you can buy with bitcoin, and where:
