Adding to the uncertainty of buying a vehicle in BTC from Tesla are the tax implications. The apex cryptocurrency is taxed as property instead of like currency.

It will return the exact amount of bitcoins from the time of purchase. Or it will pay back the $50,000 in U.S. dollars. It reserves the right to choose which, bitcoin or dollars.
And that’s the danger. If the price of bitcoin has plunged by 50%, there’s a good chance Tesla will refund your lemon with $25,000 worth of bitcoins, not a $50,000 check. Congrats, you’re $25,000 poorer.
Buy a Tesla with regular U.S. dollars and you’re guaranteed a full $50,000 refund.
What if bitcoin’s price has doubled? If you qualify for a lemon law buyback, you’re probably not going to get $100,000 in bitcoin back from Tesla. Tesla reserves the right to pay the refund in fiat, so it’ll probably just send you a check for $50,000.

Furthermore, Kapfidze proclaims that with these currencies presently existing for more than ten years, “it [Bitcoin] has no real utility in the world… It’s a solution in search of a problem and it still hasn’t found a problem to solve.”
Although Bitcoin’s future appears adequate, both Bitcoin and Dogecoin suffer from intense manipulation from “captains” wielding their influence — namely Elon Musk. Succeeding these flagrant persuasions, the impressionable buyer is intimidated into purchasing a commodity that is a sham and destructive to their economics.

Re: Is Bitcoin an imploding ponzi??...
One thing about most insurance companies is they understand how to price risk. If they're going to write a pool of insurance they expect premiums to exceed losses. In some instances insurers wrote polices their purses couldn't cover. It's very important to know what's backing your insurer, or if in the case of many scams there is any insurance at all.

HEADS IN THE SAND
Many find the concept of 'minting' NTFs - to make them part of a blockchain - and the prices that can reach millions of dollars, perplexing, but Davis said it would be a mistake for insurers to dismiss this new market.
"More companies are going to start tokenizing parts of their business. And if you just say, well, we're not covering it, because it's represented as a token, it doesn't make any logical sense," he said.
"They can't just bury their heads in the sand and hope that it all goes away, because it's not and it is here to stay."
As Tesla takes the plunge, wary insurers watch crypto craze from the sidelines
If they can't model for it a profit, it they'll steer clear. I don't know that I would describe this as heads in the sand from the perspective of an insurer and more that of too many buyers of what will prove to be worthless stings of characters.

The fake firm has listed its address and phone number as: Cambridge Court 210, Shepherds Bush Rd, Hammersmith, London; +44 555-183-726.

Pet Scam #1. If you have placed an ad in a local paper about your lost pet, and particularly if you offered a reward, you may get a call from someone claiming to have found your pet.
The caller wants the reward in advance, though, and if you refuse to pay, they'll threaten to harm your pet to put the pressure on so you'll pay up.

6. If you've found a pet and someone claims it belongs to them, before you return the pet, ask for some kind of documentation that the pet actually belongs to them -- ownership or breeding papers, records from the vet, or even family photos.
