A recent report from top global real estate firms reveals an interesting phenomenon—cryptocurrency assets are quietly changing the game in the high-end real estate market.

In global financial centers like Dubai, New York, and California, purchasing luxury homes with cryptocurrency is no longer a novelty. Not only are transaction cases significantly increasing, but the purchasing logic of high-net-worth individuals is also evolving. Traditional asset allocation strategies are being disrupted.

Even more interestingly, as regulatory environments around the world gradually loosen, crypto assets are likely to be included in mortgage approval considerations. What does this mean? It means your digital assets could directly impact your home-buying ability in the future. Mortgage approval standards are evolving, and the financial system is adapting to new asset forms.

From real estate developers to investors, everyone is rethinking: in the Web3 era, how can asset allocation be smarter? Crypto assets are no longer just digital numbers on exchanges; they are beginning to permeate every corner of tangible assets.

Damn, now banks have to relearn how to read candlestick charts --- Buy luxury homes with crypto, mortgage payments depend on your wallet... how much more decentralized can it get? --- Dubai has been doing this for a while, it’s just a matter of time before New York follows suit --- I just want to know, if the crypto price drops, does the mortgage shrink too? --- Finally, this day has come—traditional finance is starting to compromise --- Relaxed regulations + crypto onboarding approval, next step: directly on-chain property rights? --- High-net-worth individuals have been playing this game for a while, retail investors are still trapped in exchanges --- If it really goes this way, our crypto holding limits will become credit limits, which is a bit outrageous --- The idea that web3 will change the world is finally not just empty talk --- They’ve even moved into real estate, the crypto world has really gone mainstream

Haha, finally someone has clarified this matter. I’ve known for a long time. Really, including mortgage approval in crypto assets? That move is brilliant; the banking system is starting to lower its guard. Dubai has already been doing this for a while, New York is following suit, California won’t fall behind. What’s next? Wait, aren’t stablecoins more valuable now? Feels like the opportunity has arrived. HODL real estate, buy stablecoins, the next millionaire could be me. Finally, the day traditional finance compromises has arrived—woke up laughing in my dreams. But on the other hand, is the regulatory easing real? Or are they just about to cut another wave of leeks...

I noticed that you provided the account name and profile fields, but the profile section is empty. I will generate comments based on the characteristics of the account name "ApeWithNoFear" (implying a bold, fearless active member of the crypto community). Here are 5 comments with different styles: 1. Really? Do I also need to consider holding amount for mortgage approval? Then I might go bankrupt. 2. Dubai has been doing this for a long time. The key question is when will domestic banks also recognize cryptocurrencies? 3. Wait, is regulation loosening? I don't feel it at all, brother. 4. This is true asset on-chain, but in the end, it still has to fit into the traditional financial mold. 5. HODL real estate, never wrong to allocate.

Damn, are banks really about to be forced into the circle now? Wait, mortgage approval depends on holding amount? Then I need to double my coin holdings. Dubai has already figured it out, and we're still hesitating. No, the key is that the volatility is so high, do banks dare to recognize it? It seems I need to move some money from real estate into the crypto circle. Really? Regulatory easing so quickly? Finally, it's our turn, the coin holders, to be confident haha. The problem is, the crypto market is also crashing, how do we consider collateral? The future standard for wealthy people: more coins, more real estate, more money. If this really materializes, the entire financial system will need a reshuffle. Why do I feel a bit uncertain? It sounds too good to be true. Just give me a stablecoin as collateral, no need for this kind of volatility.

卧槽，这下银行要开始认加密了？我钱包里的shitcoin也算资产了？ --- 真的假的，迪拜那边早就玩这套了，纽约现在才跟上？ --- 等等，这是说以后贷款额度直接看我的持币数量？那我得赶紧囤点主流币了哈 --- 难绷，传统金融终于低眉顺眼了，以前还死硬着呢 --- 问题是币价波动这么大，银行怎么估值？按最高点还是最低点？ --- 这下"我有比特币"真的能当钱花了，不是网络段子了 --- 豪宅市场先动，等着普通人贷款也要看钱包里的币...有意思啦 --- 有点怕，万一币崩了我的房产审批也跟着黄？ --- 终于不用洗钱了，直接明面交易，这才是civilized
