Bitcoin rent agreement: Landlord and tenant finally agree on something
In Rosario, the third most populated city in Argentina, a local landlord and an occupier have sealed a rental agreement, along which the latter will pay monthly rent in Bitcoin. According to the report from the newspaper Paginal 12 from Jan. 11, this is the first such contract in Argentina, made possible by the recent law amendments of the new presidential administration.
The monthly payment under the sealed contract will be an equivalent of 100 American dollars, paid in Bitcoin (0.0021 BTC). The tenant will transfer the funds monthly through Fiwind, a local crypto platform. The report specifies that both counterparts of the contract are experienced users of crypto.
