The Need for Real Estate Investors to Embrace Bitcoin
Real estate professionals are encouraged to invest in Bitcoin to avoid potential business decline as Bitcoin is poised to absorb a substantial monetary premium that currently resides within real estate. The global real estate market, valued at approximately $300 trillion, is expected to see its worth diminish significantly as Bitcoin grows and becomes a dominant store of value. This shift is largely due to the rapid annual increase in Bitcoin’s purchasing power, which surpasses traditional real estate investments, even when leveraging properties. Ignoring this trend may lead to severe financial repercussions for those who persist in viewing real estate as the superior investment option.
