Australian serviced office firm to accept rent in crypto
By Lachlan KellerJune 11, 20211 minute read
Australian serviced office firm Business Hub will accept cryptocurrency as payment for rent on serviced office space and other business services as of July 1, the first day of Australia’s financial year.
Fast Facts:
Speaking to Forkast.News, Business Hub CEO George Kipriz said the firm had made the decision after in-house research found that 20% of Australians were investing in crypto in some form. “We thought we’d be a first-mover in the industry, and we decided to roll out crypto as a form of payment. And already since a few articles have been posted, we’ve had a few members join up already using that scheme,” Kipriz said.
The Adelaide-based company either converts its crypto income into Australian dollars on the day of payment or keeps it on its balance sheet because it “believe[s] in cryptocurrency as a future payment method.” It will initially be accepting Bitcoin and Ether, but plans to accept more cryptocurrencies in the future.
Australia is seeing increasing adoption of cryptocurrencies as a payment option. Utility company Queensland Solar & Lighting, internet service provider Launtel and even Flinders University in South Australia are all accepting Bitcoin as a form of payment.
Business Hub’s decision follows a recent report by crypto exchange Kraken that found nearly 40% of Australian millennials would rather invest in cryptocurrency than real estate. The study also found that 22% of the same age group believe crypto is a more effective way to grow their wealth than by using banks.
基于阿德莱德的一家经营服务公寓的公司Business Hub 决定接受比特币和以太币作为房租,下来还会接受别的币种。。。他们或是当天就将收到的加密币兑换成法币,或是留着。。。
他们的调查发现20%澳洲人用某种形式投资于加密币。。。20岁的年轻人更是高达40%
接受比特币付款的例子还有 :
Utility company Queensland Solar & Lighting,
internet service provider Launtel
Flinders University in South Australia
Brisbane Airport
