As a professional Boston area investor, I continually hear of Chinese and other international investors from decelerating/unstable economies, many with weakening currencies, driving up the prices of new-build, Class A residential assets.  

You know, STR and crypto have something in common, or at least their more fervent supporters do.

It also provides a better handling of multi-currency, Canadian GIFI and Canadian & International taxation that we experienced with Quickbooks (or SimplyAccounting).

Due to differences in the value of currencies, if my VA were to earn the equivalent amount here in the US, they would be paid ~$38/hr.  

But I see what you’re saying about the risk of the bitcoin value dropping.Some countries are already fully adopting bitcoin as apart of their currency.

@Lieren SchuetteBlockFi, Gemini Exchange offer 8-9% interest on stable (pegged) crypto coins.

The US is a heavily debt burdened country, with a devaluing currency, who’s GDP is at historical lows.

On the other hand, RE remains a safe asset class and many investors are moving from stocks and crypto back into RE right now for that reason.

With interest rates, currencies and property prices moving so quickly right now, I'm starting to look again at the London market which I haven't done in a few years.

Yes, a means to exchange goods and services, I get that BUT why does the very item of a currency, OF money itself exist?
