There's something worth paying attention to — the mortgage lender Newrez has started accepting crypto assets as qualification for home loans, and there's no need to sell the coins first. What does this seemingly small move actually signify?



The most immediate benefit is that borrowers can now enjoy both. Previously, wanting to get a mortgage? Crypto holders had to liquidate their coins, pay taxes, and then proceed with the loan process. Now, that's no longer necessary. You can hold Bitcoin and smoothly acquire property ownership — those who understand know how significant this change is.

At the institutional level, cryptocurrencies are finally officially included in net worth assessments, treated equally alongside stocks and bonds. This is not just a numerical change but also a substantial recognition of crypto assets by traditional finance.

There are also tax benefits. Avoiding liquidation means avoiding capital gains taxes, allowing long-term holders to save a considerable amount of money. Especially for early coin holders, this kind of tax optimization can make a big difference.

The timing is also interesting — this new product is planned to launch in February, not a distant plan but a concrete move in the near term.

From a broader perspective, when top financial institutions start treating Bitcoin as a permanent store of wealth rather than a speculative asset, it tells a story in itself. In the long run, the emergence of such products will drive the entire financial system toward adaptation and upgrade, rather than forcing crypto holders into outdated frameworks. This is the true way to achieve widespread adoption.

Wow, finally someone is treating cryptocurrencies as assets. No need to sell off assets to buy a house—that's the right way. But how long can Newrez stick to this move... Let's see what happens next. Tax savings are really attractive; early coin holders must be thrilled. Launching in February, are you serious this time? The show is about to begin. Traditional finance is finally bowing and showing respect; it feels different. Is this the moment we've been waiting for... or is it not that simple? Can you hold both coins and a house at the same time? Indeed, they've changed the game rules.

Wait, you can get a loan without selling coins? If that's true, early coin holders will make a huge profit, and they'll save a lot on taxes directly. --- Damn, this is what real financial innovation looks like, not those flashy things. --- Launching in February? Keep a close watch. If this thing spreads, the threshold for traditional finance will really be lowered. --- Mainstream institutions are finally taking cryptocurrencies seriously, although they might be a bit late. --- The most ridiculous thing is the old logic that you must sell coins to get a loan. Thinking about it now, it's a bit ironic. --- The key to this is the attitude shift in traditional finance, not just about Newrez. --- Holding coins + real estate, dual holding, no conflict, clever. --- Tax optimization is indeed a big benefit for seasoned investors, but it also depends on how exactly it's done.
