Miami-Dade Tax Collector Adds Bitcoin Payments for Property Taxes

Miami-Dade County property owners can now use Bitcoin (BTC) to pay property taxes, with the Tax Collector’s Office receiving U.S. dollars after conversion and the cryptocurrency option remaining voluntary. The office of Miami-Dade County Tax Collector Dariel Fernandez announced the option. Property owners can pay online or in person. During payment, they connect a supported cryptocurrency exchange account or digital wallet and authorize the transaction. The payment is automatically converted into U.S. dollars before it reaches the Tax Collector’s Office. The office receives dollars and does not hold, invest in or manage cryptocurrency. The Bitcoin option is voluntary.
