But something is going on with digital assets that should be on everyone\u2019s radar. They are part of the property system in 2022 \u2014 in a way they weren\u2019t before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Biden\u2019s Executive Order on Digital Assets Is a Tide-Turner.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We started publishing information on blockchain in real estate last year. Way back then, an online search for, say, bitcoin and real estate would keep bringing up the same six or eight news pieces \u2014 half of them published by blockchain companies themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suddenly \u2014 mainly in just the past month \u2014 it\u2019s different. A search brings up lots of news. Bitcoin, and its offshoots in the blockchain-based innovation world, are coming to life. One major reason? President Biden\u2019s March 2022 Executive Order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/presidential-actions\/2022\/03\/09\/executive-order-on-ensuring-responsible-development-of-digital-assets\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Executive Order on Ensuring Responsible Development of Digital Assets<\/a> directs federal agencies to synchronize the responsible development of digital assets. With this Executive Order, the United States affirms that digital assets aren\u2019t going anywhere and that U.S. leadership is a boon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Blockchain Technology Is Earning a Nation\u2019s Confidence.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s clear that the U.S. will support, not scuttle, blockchain technology. (And contrary to the belief of some crypto bulls, the federal government<em> could<\/em> have done that scuttling quite handily. Imagine if the government had instead decided to, say, tax unrealized capital gains on digital holdings every year. As it stands, bitcoin gains will only be taxed when a holding is sold \u2014 as with other property assets.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many blockchain investors and companies are also reassured. While they value autonomy, they know institutional investors want basic consumer protections and cybersecurity laws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Historically, the Executive Order is a highly unusual \u201cwhole-of-government\u201d directive. Socially, it indicates that the administration will accept a form of property that includes everyone \u2014 even the unbanked. For the technology is developing in such a way that anyone with a smartphone and a few dollars can put money into a cash machine and buy digital assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When Real Estate Companies See New Competition Ahead\u2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As for the real estate sector, Sotheby\u2019s and a few small, luxury companies are getting into cryptocurrency transactions. They\u2019re eager to impress younger buyers, to achieve high-profile \u201cfirsts,\u201d or to prove cryptocurrency\u2019s potential in the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Developers are getting in, too. Calling blockchain a \u201ctransformative\u201d technology that is \u201crapidly gaining acceptance globally,\u201d Harbor Custom Development, Inc. (active in Washington, California, Florida, and Texas) has styled itself as the first national land developer and home builder to take digital assets for its land, houses, condos, and rental properties. Harbor uses a third-party exchange to converts bitcoin or the buyer\u2019s preferred cryptocurrency into dollars so they can be deposited into escrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In March 2022, the <em>Wall Street Journal<\/em> reported that real-estate developers and brokerages have begun holding cryptocurrency seminars for their agents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can Mortgage Companies Be Far Behind?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>People with substantial cryptocurrency holdings might not have a lot in dollars. This is a problem when the time comes to apply for a mortgage. But early crypto mortgage lenders have arrived, gearing up to value a borrower\u2019s digital assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the best models, the crypto assets need not be sold. The borrowers\u2019 digital account becomes the collateral. This way, the buyer can still benefit, for example, from a potential bitcoin surge in the future, while steering clear of tax on a sale of bitcoin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At this time, the borrowers face relatively high interest charges and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.deeds.com\/articles\/thinking-about-an-adjustable-rate-mortgage-in-2022\/\">adjustable rates<\/a>. But cryptocurrency mortgages could become competitive within a few years \u2014 and this year\u2019s Executive Order will surely embolden the emerging companies.&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">This Year, the <em>Wall Street Journal<\/em> Is Describing How Crypto Real Estate Transactions Work.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A few months before the Executive Order came out, an oceanfront condo at One Thousand Museum in Miami closed for $7.2 million in ether (Ethereum). The buyer did pay the down payment in dollars, the <em>Wall Street Journal <\/em>explained. And the seller converted the proceeds into U.S. dollars upon closing. Most people do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet regulated cryptocurrency exchanges are offering options. They can lock in prices, accept digital down payments, and partner with escrow agents who take payments from crypto exchanges. These transactions can happen quickly, conveniently, and outside of banking hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the moment, our curiosity has to be tempered with caution. Case in point: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vice.com\/en\/article\/wxdzvy\/real-estate-cryptocurrency-takes-peoples-money-then-shuts-down-and-vanishes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Vice<\/em> reported<\/a> on a rogue blockchain real estate startup.
