Bitcoin is $65k again but are you using it for REI?
Every so often over the years I have taken a temp check on bitcoin with what we can assume are 99% REI folks. Wanted to check to see if anyone is actually using bitcoin/crypto in their real estate ventures. Previous posts I would get some of the I would rather rent to crack head type answers than take bitcoin for rent but that seems to be slowly fading. Recently the ETF was approved so more larger investors are coming in soon we can assume.
Are you thinking of using/buying bitcoin and or use in any REI capacity? If so how? For example like one BPer who uses spare room to mine bitcoin. I think it covers the mortgage or a portion.
thanks and good luck!
