Great job! Did your tenant act like you were making a weird request, or were they totally normal with it?
Good question. I use a resident I know there to find me tenants. For years I have told her to offer prospective tenants a discount with bitcoin. The conversation was always awkward. She obviously thought I was nuts. This time, the tenant uses cash app all the time, so he sees the bitcoin option on the app constantly and thought it was normal. Usually I deal with people who pay with venmo or zelle.

Someone told me cash app is only for sketchy people and/or transactions. I was unaware of this stigma.
reply
Yes. There is a big stigma, or at least there was. I don't know why. It's no different than venmo, so far as I can tell.
reply
I don't know why, either. It requires KYC just like Venmo, so I don't see why it's different. Maybe it didn't used to?
reply
I think it was always KYC. I remember the stigma going way back. I have to be honest. Before I retired, and before I got into bitcoin, I got cash app because all of my criminal clients used it. None of them had venmo like me.

Hah! Another data point
