Why Buying a Home Might Be a Bad Idea in the Bitcoin Era

Buying a home ties up your capital in an illiquid, slow-growing asset. Bitcoin, on the other hand, is portable, liquid, and has vastly outperformed real estate over the past decade.

Homeownership also comes with hidden costs: maintenance, taxes, insurance, and the risk of local market crashes. Meanwhile, renting gives flexibility, and the savings can be stacked in Bitcoin—a deflationary asset that protects your wealth and offers exponential growth potential.

Don’t settle for “safe.” Opt for freedom and growth. Rent, stack sats, and build financial sovereignty.

Second sentence is the key. Your home is not an investment
