Block Earner Launches Australia's First $BTC-Backed Home Loans


Block Earner has debuted $BTC-secured property financing, offering up to 50% of a home's value as deposit loans.


Borrowers can access property financing without selling their $BTC holdings, with crypto held in Fireblocks custody.


The company claims over AUD$110 million in early borrower interest during its soft launch phase.


Loans are capped at a 60% loan-to-value ratio with interest-only payments for up to four years.


Repayments can be made in cash or crypto, with penalty-free early exit options available.


The service provides 30-day notice periods for volatility management rather than forced liquidations.


Australian home prices, when measured in $BTC terms, have fallen from 627 $BTC in 2016 to just 4.3 $BTC in 2024.


The product addresses housing affordability while allowing #crypto holders to maintain digital asset exposure.
