Bitcoin fever hits real estate market...

 

 

Bitcoin fever has hit the US real estate market, especially that of Florida, offering foreign investors a way to dodge currency controls at home and US economic sanctions.

"Bitcoin accepted" is a message now seen in the description of homes for sale in the Miami area.

One seller is going even farther, saying he will take only bitcoin (33 of them to be exact) for his half-million-dollar downtown condo in the Florida metropolis.

Nearly half of all foreign buyers of property in south Florida are from Latin America.

Bitcoin next stop 7500. If the scalability issues are resolved and transactions costs and mining fees come down, then a trading range, else the next stop is 2000. Same with Ethereum - it's a useless smart contract platform, until the transaction fees can come down and the platform is scalable. Otherwise it's a glorified speculation platform for speculating in tokens.

 

At this point, there isn't one single good live application running at scale on Ethereurm. Most are high school projects raising money via token sale.
