Can My LLC Buy Bitcoin?

Yes, your LLC can buy Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is a digital asset and a payment system invented by Satoshi Nakamoto. Transactions are verified by network nodes through cryptography and recorded in a public dispersed ledger called a blockchain.

Bitcoin is unique in that there are a finite number of them: 21 million.

NOTE: WARNING: Buying Bitcoin with an LLC is risky and may present legal, tax, and financial risks to the LLC and its owners. Before attempting to buy Bitcoin with an LLC, you should consult with a qualified accountant or lawyer to understand the potential risks and liabilities associated with this transaction. Additionally, there may be regulatory restrictions on making such purchases in your jurisdiction.

Bitcoins are created as a reward for a process known as mining. They can be exchanged for other currencies, products, and services.

As of February 2015, over 100,000 merchants and vendors accepted bitcoin as payment.

Bitcoin can be purchased on exchanges, or directly from other people via marketplaces. You can also receive Bitcoin by providing goods or services in exchange for it.
