It has finally happened. You can now buy anything (legal) through the Wasabi Wallet’s Buy Anything feature in partnership with ShopInBit. The argument that using coinjoin makes your coins unspendable is no longer valid. To learn more about this release, read the blog post here.

You’ve downloaded the new version and now you’re ready to give it a try. You want to treat yourself and your loved ones to some nice gifts, but you feel uninspired and don’t know what to get. If that’s the case, this article is for you. 

We asked ourselves: “What are 10 crazy things you can buy with Wasabi Wallet’s Buy Anything feature?” Let’s push the boundaries of your imagination. Expect to be surprised, even shocked for some.

1. Garden with 50 Bonsai Trees

Are you a fan of the Japanese art of growing and training miniature trees? How about going all out and creating a bonsai garden with up to 50 trees? 

This is what your backyard could look like (if you have a yard the size of a downtown area).

Not a Bonsai fan? On to the next one. 

2. Pay for a Funeral Bill

Things got dark pretty quickly, but the point is that we’re here for you in the good times and the not-so-good times. Whether the funeral home accepts credit card payments or only bank transfers, ShopInBit’s support agents can take care of it for you.

Let’s go back to something happier.

3. A Harp

The Buy Anything feature is also geared toward musicians, and there’s no discrimination based on the size of the instrument. Just make sure you have enough storage space for your harp. 

You + A brand new harp + the Scottish Highlands?

But how are you going to get your harp there? You’re going to need a car, and while you’re at it, you might as well forget about the harp and just get a very cool car.

4. A Mercedes GLE 63 S AMG

Imagine it’s the middle of 2025 and Bitcoin is now at $300,000, wouldn’t you dare to buy your dream car? I know the most frugal of you will still have only one chair in your house, but the rest of us deserve to live a little!

Of course, you will be sure to print your favorite wallet’s logo on your brand-new Chad car.

Enough with the jokes and the luxury, let’s talk practicality.  

5. 1 Year Rent for your New Apartment

You just found a great new place in your town. The only problem is, they want you to do an extensive credit check investigation, but that goes against your principles. You’d rather pay a year’s rent in advance so they’ll respect your privacy. 

Wherever you are in the world (except Iran, North Korea, Ukraine, and Russia), you can pay your rent using the Buy Anything feature in Wasabi Wallet. 

You have the apartment and a floor mattress. Try to guess what’s next.

6. Completely Furnish your Apartment using the Buy Anything Feature

For the interior designers out there, Wasabi and ShopInBit have got you covered. We already know you love bitcoin, so we took the liberty of imagining a living room with an orange touch.

Generated with Dall-E

We know you do a better job of designing than we do, and whatever you choose to furnish and decorate your home, you’ll be able to have it shipped to you directly from your Wasabi Wallet.

7. A 3m2 Swimming Pool

We imagine that after all that hard work decorating your home, you are hot and ready for a dip in the pool, but where can you get one? 

Open up Wasabi Wallet, click ‘Buy Anything’, and order the outdoor pool of your dreams. Or pay a pool contractor to build you an indoor pool.

Bitcoin or Swimming Pool? Why not both? 

8. An 85″ TV

After a long day of swimming, why not end it by watching the bitcoin price rise on an 85 inch TV you just got delivered from ShopInBit? Might as well bring the family together for that.

Ok, enough with the fun, let’s get serious.

9. 2x Server Rack R182-Z93, Dual Epyc

We know that you value privacy and self-custody, not just for bitcoin, but for your entire digital life. 

You live by two mottos: “Not your keys, not your coins” and “Not your metal, not your computer”.

You want to take things to the next level and build a server room at home. There you’ll be able to run open-source software to replace cloud-based systems, and also run your own open source LLM (Large Language Model) to train your AI models without the censorship of Big Tech.

Okay, it may not look like that, but it will feel like it, and you will feel like a real cyborg.

10. A Fully Customizable Adult Sex Doll

Now that you’re a cyborg, you might want a cyborg companion. I won’t post any images here, I’ll let your imagination run wild. As crazy as this sounds, it will be possible to buy anything, even this, directly from your Wasabi Wallet.

You may have heard that using Wasabi, especially to coinjoin, would make your bitcoin unspendable. Not only is that not true, but we’re announcing that we’re making it easier than ever to use your bitcoin.  For Wasabi’s 2.0.5 release, we’ve partnered with ShopinBit. com, Europe’s Biggest Bitcoin Store, to bring you the ‘Buy Anything’ Button.

What if you could buy a car directly through Wasabi and have it shipped to you? Now you can.  

The ‘Buy Anything’ Button
The 2.0.5 release of Wasabi Wallet includes a “Buy Anything” button that allows you to BUY ANYTHING (legal).

Just click on the “Buy Anything” button next to the “Send” and “Receive” buttons in your wallet to start a chat conversation with ShopinBit’s professional concierge team. 

After letting them know what you want in good detail, you’ll have to wait a few hours (24-48) for a submission. When all the details have been checked by ShopinBit’s team, they’ll give you an offer.

Your order will be confirmed once you accept it and pay the bitcoin invoice.

If the product is physical, you will need to enter your shipping address details to receive it. The shipping time depends on the product and the shipping destination, but don’t worry, you can track your order with the link provided.

“Your Order Has Been Shipped”

The timing of this release couldn’t be better. The new year is starting and Bitcoin’s price is doing well again, you can order anything you want for yourself and your dear ones directly from your favourite wallet.

Download the latest version (2.0.5) of Wasabi Wallet and start shopping now.

We Have Partnered with ShopinBit

We’d like to thank the Shopinbit team for making this possible through their Premium Concierge Service, which allows you to buy anything and get it delivered anywhere. They’re based in Poland and are Europe’s largest Bitcoin store, but they ship worldwide. 

You have a direct communication channel from your Wasabi Wallet client application to Shopinbit’s servers. zkSNACKs (Wasabi’s development company) can’t see anything exchanged on this channel and doesn’t know anything about your orders. 

To learn more about the ShopinBit company and team, click here.  

What are the Limits and the Fees?

For now, the minimum total order price is USD 1,000. There is no limit per se, but only VIP customers can place orders for more than USD 60,000. VIP customers must have at least one previous shopping experience through ShopinBit’s Concierge service.

Fees might vary depending on the order.

Other Questions You Might Have (FAQ)

  1. Can I really buy anything? 

ShopinBit’s Concierge Service does not provide any kind of drugs, prescription medications, weapons, precious metals, cryptocurrencies, financial instruments, or any type of product that is illegal in Poland. You can buy anything else. 

  1. Can I pay my rent or another invoice?

Yes, ShopinBit can pay with almost any payment method supported by Wise, Revolut, the banking system and major credit cards, so services like your rent can be paid. 

  1. Why does it take 24-48 hours to get my quote? 

All requests are handled manually by ShopinBit’s team and sometimes need to be reviewed with legal counsel. The following 4 points have to be reviewed: 

 a) That the product/service can be bought from Shopinbit;

 b) ShopinBit is allowed to sell the product to you;

 c) ShopinBit can ship the product to you;

 d) It is all legal to do so.

An offer will be issued only until these 4 points are sorted out. If it’s not possible, you will receive a friendly decline with an explanation of why.

  1. How is the bitcoin price calculated at the time of the transaction?

The offer quote is always in fiat (in USD precisely) and the final BTC amount is displayed when the user agrees to buy now. The exchange rate is reserved for 30 minutes.

  1. Will I get an invoice? 

Yes, it will be available through a download link.

  1. What about duties and taxes? 

It will depend on the source and destination of the product. If it has to cross borders, it might be subject to duties or taxes. If it can be purchased in the same country as it’s being delivered, there will be no duty taxes added to the final price.

  1. How long does it take to ship a physical product? A digital product?

There is no general answer to this question for physical products. It depends on where the product is (ShopinBit’s warehouse or third-party warehouse) and how it will be shipped to you. 

For digital products, they are shipped on the same day as payment.

  1. What is the data management policy? 

ShopinBit pseudonomizes (a.k.a. turns real personal data into generic gibberish) 30 days after completion of the order. ShopinBit is legally obligated to store invoices (with the shipping address), which are kept offline.

Remember that zkSNACKs is never aware of the data of this service, and you can delete your local data anytime.

  1.  How does zkSNACKs make money? 

Orders made through Wasabi include an affiliate code and a fair cut is given to zkSNACKs, similar to standard affiliation programs.

  1. Will I get in trouble with tax authorities because of this?

We can’t help you with tax issues, you need to know the laws of your own country. In general, if you haven’t paid taxes, you may get in trouble for not paying the taxes, not for spending your money with ShopinBit’s service.

  1. What countries are not allowed?

Iran and North Korea are not allowed. Ukraine and Russia are currently halted due to the ongoing war.

  1. Does the service include shipping to remote areas? What shipping service will be used?

ShopinBit ships anywhere, if you can pay for it. The service depends on the country. Their team has experience with difficult shipping conditions.

  1. What is the return and reimbursement policy?

After you receive your order, you have a 14-day right of return. This means that if you do not like it, you can send it back (you will have to pay for the shipping).

Cars, boats, yachts, airplanes, jewellery, custom and digital items are non-returnable

If you exercise your right of withdrawal, the USD value will be used to calculate the amount of your returned coins on the day your order arrives back at the warehouse.
