A private jet sales company has allowed its customers to pay via Bitcoin (BTC). The cost of buying a private jet is approximately 3750 bitcoins.

US-based Aviatrade is currently selling a 2014 version of the 2014 Gulfstream G650ER for about $ 40 million, approximately $ 3,750, according to Business Insider. Billionaires are said to have bought both models, including Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and Tesla CEO Elon Musk, which can travel up to 7,500 nautical miles, roughly the distance between Los Angeles and Sydney. The Aviatrade website states:

We accept bitcoins as payment for all bizjet purchases.

Aviatrade CEO Philip Rushton said that using Fiat to buy private jets in some countries is subject to some overseas restrictions. Cryptocurrencies seem to have fewer regulatory restrictions at present. The company has not set a specific price for any of its aircraft, and Ramzarz traders do not have to "settle" for the Gulfstream model. Aviatrade currently sells 13 more private commercial jets, including two Bombardier Global 7500s. The value of these jets in June 2019 was equivalent to 72.8 million dollars or more than 6800 BTC.

This is not the first time that an aircraft sales company has accepted payment for cryptocurrencies. In June, Kaizen CEO Fabrizio Poli said in an interview with Bitcoin researcher Andreas Antonopoulos that the company would pay for its charter flights and cargo services or buy a private jet from Bitcoin Payments and Other ciphers »supports. Antonopoulos compared the sale of multimillion-dollar planes to when he sold a Mini Cooper for Ramzars.

They did a quick driving test. When they returned, I signed the contract and I was absolutely sure that the money I received was real, non-counterfeit and completely mine and could not be taken back. So this type of payment was very easy and safe. Now I can see that this has become an easy way to buy or sell an airplane.
