In the 25th edition of my newsletter, I explore how Bitcoin mining can energize #realestate by providing cost-effective energy solutions and contributing to the overall value and sustainability of properties.
I'm currently in the process of writing the third and final chapter of my book "Digital Real Estate". In Chapter 3, I will examine how a hypothetical Bitcoin standard would change #lending practices: Under a Bitcoin standard, debt denominated in bitcoin would increase in value over time due to bitcoin's disinflationary nature and limited supply. This requires careful consideration of the amount of debt one is willing to incur. While a Keynesian would argue that such a system could harm short-term productivity by discouraging borrowing, this view overlooks a crucial long-term benefit: A Bitcoin standard encourages more responsible economic behavior by compelling individuals and businesses to carefully evaluate their financial decisions. This shift addresses a significant issue in the current fiat system, where individuals and institutions are often incentivized to take on excessive risk and accumulate unnecessary debt, while savers are penalized as the money supply increases and purchasing power of savings decreases. By fostering accountability and prudent decision-making, a Bitcoin standard can lead to a more stable and disciplined economic environment. #DigitalRealEstate
Bitcoin and Housing: A Path to Affordability II Landlords can capitalize on bitcoin's price appreciation, which acts as an inflation hedge, rather than solely relying on increasing rents to offset higher construction and maintenance costs due to monetary inflation. This ultimately benefits consumers, who have been particularly burdened by rising housing costs. A phenomenon of the fiat system is the use of real estate as a speculative investment vehicle, to hedge against monetary inflation. This has many negative consequences for society. Most noticeably, it drives up the cost of living significantly. By integrating bitcoin into their financial strategy, real estate developers can maintain affordability for tenants while also benefiting from bitcoin's potential to hedge against inflation. This approach reduces reliance on increasing rental income, helping to stabilize rent prices and ultimately benefiting tenants. This is another example of how Bitcoin can help improve everyone's standard of living. #realestate #housing
This is an interesting talk. I also think that the Internet is less exciting for creatives and consumers today. However, it misses the crucial aspects of Bitcoin and, most importantly, Nostr. When will the leading platforms for independent creatives recognize the potential of Bitcoin, Value4Value, and Nostr?

The digital disruption Bitcoin embodies to the real estate industry can be likened to the advent of email. Just as email and other internet-based messaging services revolutionized communication by becoming the primary means of sending messages, bitcoin holds the potential to transform the way we store and send value. It is conceivable that bitcoin could assume the role currently held by real estate as the foremost method of wealth preservation. This potential shift in the paradigm of value storage and transfer is reminiscent of how email and digital messaging have largely replaced traditional postal services, underscoring the profound impact of technological advancements on societal norms. #bitcoin #realestate
