Real Estate vs Bitcoin

Which one has done better as an investment over the last 10 years? A house? or a blockchain cryptocurrency? It’s not even close. While U.S. real estate has gone up more than 100% over that time, Bitcoin has skyrocketed more than 9 million percent over the same period. You cannot live in a bitcoin, but you can buy around 98,000 homes today if you put the price of just one average home into bitcoin in 2010. If you had done so, you would enjoy nearly $30 billion today. Does that sound like it might be worth looking into? #bitcoin

How about if you did not learn of bitcoin until 5 years ago, and put $250,000 into it then? How much could you sell it for today? You would have acquired 871 bitcoins, which today would be worth more than $10 million. Not a bad take for acting on the information provided by the L.A. Loft Blog. We first mentioned Bitcoin in 2014, and then later in 2017, we suggested that Bitcoin be considered along with real estate as a top investment pick. Those who like that suggestion, saw a $923 investment turn into $11,800. While you still cannot live in a bitcoin, you can certainly enjoy living in all of the lofts, condos and houses that your profit can provide you.

Over the last two years, home prices around Downtown Los Angeles have mostly dropped, while Bitcoin nearly doubled in value.

We’ve learned that hard work, determination and astute investing lead to the greatest real estate portfolios. We’re excited to be part of the amazing financial achievements and lifestyle successes of the smartest group in the world, the readers of the L.A. Loft Blog. Together, we’ve pioneered innovative real estate investment information, and we intend to continue that trend.

It’s our pleasure to answer reader questions. Below is additional information about some timely blockchain and cryptocurrency topics:

DeFi Yield Farming – Crypto Investors Claim to be Raking In 100%+ Annualized Yields, according to Forbes. This new blockchain derivative attracts investors into the world of crypto finance. It’s about borrowing blockchain capital or otherwise leveraging DeFi protocols and products to generate high rates of return. In some cases, more than 100% annualized yields have been achieved when factoring in “cashback” bonuses and incentives.  Twitter is among the most popular places to advertise, promote and educate about these new blockchain investment methods such as $COMP on @Instadapp.  One Twitter user, DeFi Dad, offers a $250 per month return on $10,000 investment.  These promises represent among the riskiest of investments, if you can call them that. The higher the offered ROI, combined with the fewest details and disclosures provided, the greater the risk of potential fraud and loss of investment capital.  For example:  If a Facebook user offers a bitcoin investment with a 200% return in one week, the investor/victim should suspect a ponzi scheme or other scam.

Stablecoin – Cryptocurrencies designed to minimize volatility of the price of the stablecoin, relative to some “stable” asset or basket of assets. A stablecoin can be pegged to a cryptocurrency, fiat money, or to exchange-traded commodities. Tether is the most popular stable coin, and is pegged to the dollar.  Stablecoins may offer the same or greater risk than other cryptocurrencies, but stable coins go down in value, while other coins usually have large upswings in value. Stablecoins also tend to be manipulated by a controlling company, and may lack outside auditing. When a stablecoin destabilizes, it may drop in value precipitously.

Ethereum – The second largest cryptocurrency platform by market capitalization, behind Bitcoin. It is a decentralized open source blockchain featuring smart contract functionality. Ether is the cryptocurrency generated by Ethereum miners as a reward for computations performed to secure the blockchain. Ethereum powers thousands of applications.

Entar Coin – The L.A. Loft Blog recently announced the launch of Entar Coin, designed to tokenize and fractionalize real estate, and even to provide rewards for L.A. Loft Blog readers and thousands of other uses. Get 100 free Entar Coins while supplies last:

Real Estate – The king of investments, real estate is the largest investment achieved by the average American.  More than 64% of American families own their home.
