Bitcoin will demonetise housing and change the nature of the property ponzi.

So in 2025 where there are still a lot of people who think rental property investment is a good idea, aren't they effectively holding the bag?

Isn't it more efficient to rent a place, let them own the demonetising asset, and they pay for the substantial maintenance, take on depreciation and other risks - while you HODL on?

The other aspect is, if war comes to your province, you can flee without the physical property binding you to your land and potentially costing your life. Plenty of people have tried in vain to defend their castle.

I know of only 1 or 2 families that rent after selling their properties. 4 years to realise annualised btc gains sounds too painful right now. Also, the spouse must also be a bitcoiner, imagine coming home from work in a sustained bear market every day lol

You need to own your house that your family has their HOME. There is no bigger blessing than having your healthy family in their own home.

bitcoin will not "demonetize" housing. literally nobody is making that prediction. like bitcoin, housing has value. and the whole point oc renting is indeed flexibility--in a free market, the lessor and lessee both benefit from the agreement. the lessee pays a premium for the convenience of less...

We’re moving towards a future where rentals will be the norm. Partly because it is a more efficient form of living partly because the gig economy will need to have people mobile. In terms of efficiency it is clear that a property owner will have better pricing for consumables as well as better in...

Housing is a utility and a liability. It’s not an asset and the fiat debt system is designed to pull forward instant gratification of ownership. With a low time preference, renting and stacking sats is way better path!

Would rather own a home than rent. Who wants to deal with the specter of rising rents and dealing with a landlord?

Exactly this! As someone who doesn't currently own and would need to purchase a home, just renting while Bitcoin continues to grow at 60% a year or so (baseline is 46% growth as measured in dollars), is much more desirable than sticking that money into a depreciating asset like a home. Yes, I said ...

If you have a landlord that actually takes care of maintenance...

Property as an investment is probably a bad idea, but thinking your landlord is going to maintain your home properly seems like a pipe dream. Landlords suck. They're unresponsive, unwilling to spend even on repair let alone improvement. Plus they're nosey, always coming around inspecting and placing...

Thought experiment: what would happen if the majority of landlords require rent in Bitcoin?

That's as bad as saying bitcoin is a ponzi.

Makes sense. But I prefer and love the freedom of owning the place I live in.
