The first yacht known to be purchased with Bitcoin was a custom-built, luxury yacht named "Quantum." The transaction occurred in 2017 when a Miami-based yacht dealer, Denison Yachting, facilitated the sale. The buyer used Bitcoin to acquire the yacht, making it one of the early instances of a high-value asset being bought with cryptocurrency.

This event showcased how cryptocurrency was expanding into the realm of high-end purchases, illustrating its potential as a means of conducting significant transactions beyond its original use as a digital currency.$BTC
