Green Bay Packers fans have a chance to live just steps away from Lambeau Field — but it will cost them $1 million in cryptocurrency.
A so-called “Packer House” — it’s one of six homes that are actually connected to the parking lot at the National Football League team’s home stadium — the three-bedroom property is being sold on the blockchain, which is a first in the U.S., according to global property marketplace Propy. The home is currently owned by former Facebook executive and Green Bay native Chris Murphy.
“He is a crypto enthusiast and he wants to use the funds to back bitcoin initiatives,” said Natalia Karayaneva, chief executive of Propy.
The roughly 1,000-square-foot property’s $1 million price tag is steep though, even with its location taken into account. Real estate website Zillow estimated its value to be just over $256,000, and its value was assessed at $264,000 in 2016 for tax purposes.
