Are crypto currencies dropping the housing market?

[Jared Bauer]

I'm new here. I've owned 1 rental property for 6 years now and my goal in life was to accumulate enough to become financially free. However, I also invested in bitcoin many years ago at $20, and Ethereum a couple years ago at $10 and believe in crypto currencies. I've done very very well. With housing prices high over the last couple years, I just couldn't justify buying places anymore because the reward was just so small. I've noticed zillow slashed prices across the board, at least in MI.

So I'm wondering. Do crypto currencies maybe have something to do with the recent housing decline? After all, I feel like a good majority of real estate investors are people who don't want to hold fiat, and they think most stocks are over valued. With crypto on the rise, I feel like it has people investing in that instead of more rentals and maybe even selling rentals to buy crypto.
