I Sold My Home for Bitcoin and Made 500% — Here's Why I'm Buying Real Estate in 2025 (JWP92)

I sold my house for Bitcoin. Three years later, I’ve done a 5x return, yet the hidden cost was constant stress of moving with my wife, three kids, and limited control of our space. In this episode, I walk through the trade-offs of owning Bitcoin vs real estate, why I’m reallocating back into real estate, and the exact due diligence stack I’m using to find a healthy home.
