Simmons is willing to accept Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Uniswap, Polkadot, Aave, Try.Finance, or a combination of these cryptocurrencies.

According to the Las Vegas Review Journal, in May 2021 the musician bought the house for $10.8 million and put it up for sale in October at nearly $15 million, reducing the price the following month.

In the three-level mansion there are six bedrooms, eight bathrooms, glass sculptures, floor-to-ceiling windows, a commercial elevator, an 11-seat home theatre and views of the Las Vegas Strip.

Broker Evangeline Duke-Patroni noted that if the house is paid for in cryptocurrency, closing costs, including taxes and commissions, must be paid in fiat.

In February 2021 Simmons revealed investments in Dogecoin and XRP. He also bought Bitcoin “for a seven-figure sum.” In the same month the musician purchased Cardano for $300,000.

Earlier this June, French DJ David Guetta put up for sale a Miami Beach apartment for $14 million with the option to pay in Bitcoin or Ethereum.
