A man in Rhode Island has sold a vacant lot in Providence for 150,000 DOGE, or around $50,000 at the time of the sale.
According to a report by local news station WJAR, a Rhode Island man has become the first to broker a real estate deal using the meme-based crypto-asset. The report claims the man was interested in selling his vacant lot using Dogecoin, which has risen in popularity over the last several months due to the influence of Elon Musk and other high-profile endorsements.
