Opendoor Confirms Plan to Accept Bitcoin for Home Sales

The CEO’s one-line post comes during a founder-led overhaul featuring steep workforce cuts.

Overview

  • CEO Kaz Nejatian replied on X, “We will. Just need to prioritize it,” confirming that crypto payments are on the roadmap.
  • Opendoor shares rose about 14% on Monday to close at $9.28, with a notable pickup in retail-driven trading.
  • The company disclosed no launch timing or supported assets, and any rollout would need to address tax and legal requirements.
  • As an iBuyer, Opendoor can convert Bitcoin to U.S. dollars internally so sellers, escrow, and title receive fiat.
