Christie’s Real Estate Embraces Crypto Transactions
What happened: Christie’s International Real Estate launched a dedicated crypto division to facilitate luxury real‑estate purchases using digital currencies—enabling purchases (some worth $100M+) in crypto.
Why it matters: High-end property deals using crypto validate its use as a payment method for ultra-wealthy clients, offering privacy and speed.
Looking ahead: This move could encourage broader institutional and high‑net‑worth crypto adoption. Over time, mainstream realty markets may follow, especially as regulatory clarity improves.
