Topic: BITCOIN VS LANDED PROPERTY - page 3. (Read 687 times)

First of all its a wrong comparison, bitcoin is digital asset while the landed property is physical which can be both liability or asset depends on what we are using. Property is not easily liquified while bitcoins can be converted into fiat in just a matter of minutes so I would like to vote for both since both serves good stability to our portfolio value.

Investing in a right time and amount can lead to many profitable investment. It's good to have both as an investment. If there are opportunities to acquire properties then grab the chance provided you study the location and possible future value of the land. Many aims to have their future home and some dream of having big farm lots,  it's a good investment until we see it's potential for future returns since land value increases in time.

If we prefer trading and knowledgeable enough to get profit on it then focus first on trading until there is extra budget to buy other investment but make sure to atleast have your own home since the market isn't always about profit, as long as we know the risk we are taking when we invest either in land or in crypto.

I would invest in both. However, as we know, investing in Bitcoin is easier than investing in real estate. You can start with as little as $10 for investing in bitcoin and DCA it as you go but in real estate, it is either you have the money or you don't and since the price of a piece of land appreciates. Investing in Bitcoin and then in real estate is like having two-factor authentication for wealth creation.

To create wealth you have to diversify at all cost but bitcoin still backed by its network is well secured fromany firm of attack's not if you get your wallet details exposed to scammer's. Natural disasters and war can cause total destruction of houses and lands bit not bitcoin, not your details even if you get your phone or hard ware wallet stolen they can be retrieved as far as you can provide those phase.
Both are still good if I posses them both its a good thing for the future. But as much as you can buy enough bitcoin don't think or take this as joke

No one wouldn't want or love to have the both senior.
I was trying to create a question with a scenario where one has to choose just one option between them both

Both is good for investment and they standing different from other not really to be in comparison, they are apart. Bitcoin is not land and they have different advantage or disadvantage. Bitcoin like land are traded for income. We may know bitcoin as what asset to be trade , land also is traded because op is one of land agent and he knows how that is done that you can buy land today and hold it to resell and to cash out for profit. Bitcoin is also a fast profit but if you trading you can lose the value but the land value appreciate.

I would love to have both, and since I already bought landed property from my cryptocurrency earnings, I am now focused on accumulating BTC for further real estate investment (from BTC profit).  I believe investing in both assets won't go wrong.


I would love to buy a property in a village where vegetation and minerals are rich.  Also, if the property includes a good source of varieties of foods. or near where the source of food can be found. .  Cheaper price with a secured source of food I believe is what I am looking for.

Your points are all about accessibility bitcoin has over land/property investment, which the exception of last point which refers to profitability, but then you ignore the volatility of crypto market, which can push bitcoin's price downside yet for a decent length of time, while when investing in lands, we are protected by the stability this kind of investment proportionate us. Lands don't rise 100% in price or more like bitcoin does in few years, but at least you are protected against inflation, volatility and depreciation, besides having an area to produce something for survival or profit.

I would equalise both of them and if I have to consider few major factors such as volatility and appreciation value then it could hamper my decisions in terms of “ratio” that I choose to invest in both of them. For example, bitcoin is highly volatile but at the same time it is far more appreciating in value as compared to landed property. No one can agree more on this one consider the history of 10-13 years for bitcoin. However, to secure myself loosing into the world of investment and becoming broke I would always choose both option. I might put more money into bitcoin and some of the securities in landed one.

I see that people often try to draw comparison between two different assets which can't be concluded logically. This is one of such comparisons. When someone buys a physical property, a lot of factors go in there! It's not just a brick and mortar establishment. It also about where the property is purchased and when. The ROI from a property depends on multiple factors unlike bitcoin. So the comparison itself is invalid.

I would personally prefer to buy bitcoin over a property which is located in a village. But I will prefer property over bitcoin, if the property is located in the city center where the government has planned for some future developments like metro rail, train lines or hospital etc. It's as simple as that! Property investment can fetch your astronomical returns as well if you purchase it wisely. So the comparison purely depends on that!

Bitcoin can not be compared with land in some ways but honestly speaking, both have their own role likewise benefits too. Bitcoin has much more value attached to it, Bitcoin is a global entity recognized for it's value worldwide. It has every potential of price increase speedily compared to the other because already, it has been tagged a store of value as a digital gold so therefore this has boasten the use case which gives it edge over other assets. However, landed properties are quite alright. It is worth investing and appreciate with time and importance attached to it. Most times, landed properties depreciates unlike Bitcoin which keeps increasing irrespective of the bear market. Landed properties would need constant maintenance which requires funds which in some cases might not be available which is the contrary in Bitcoin. When you buy Bitcoin, you have purchased it there is nothing like maintenance for Bitcoin but a landed property would definitely need such as time goes on.

Landed properties takes much time to sort out just as OP has said which would require some process which is time consuming and stress compared to Bitcoin which just requires your transacting via Crypto exchanges.

On a good ground, I would prefer Bitcoin  because I already know what it Is. I Bitcoin gradually is getting recognition globally which in the end would boasten the price very much in less than no time.

I agree.

They do have their own purpose but it will entirely depends on an individual capabilities on managing whatever he will choose. It's true that Bitcoin easier to manage, and could easily be kept where people wouldn't know it exist in your property. The only disadvantage of landed properties for me is that they are too vulnerable for anyone who wants to claim it's theirs, especially if we're talking about greedy government officials, or worst case scenario, terrorist or bad people who are willing to kill others just to get that property.

It is worth investing in both of them as they are good investments, but it would be unwise to invest in only one of them and not diversify the portfolio as a whole. But I think most people here would choose bitcoin because real estate investment requires a lot of capital and needs to be held for a very long time before it becomes profitable. honestly if I had a lot of money I would invest most of it in land and only a little bit in bitcoin, bitcoin offers high returns but risks are not small and there is no 100% guarantee.

I invested in both as part of diversifying my investments. For the last 10 years, bitcoin investment has performed well compared to real estate. The good thing about real estate is you can seldom experience a drop in value, it continues to grow over the years although slowly. There are places where real estate is a sure thing investment, especially in the cities and places with huge populations where land is scarce. Bitcoin, on the other hand, can rise at an unimaginable percentage but during a bearish season, it can also drop more than 50% of its value which can cause panic, especially among its new investors. 

when buying a house. you are not just buying a house
you are then paying a property insurance premium, maintenance costs, county/state tax

when you buy bitcoin, thats it. you bought it, no more ongoing costs to keep it

also the "multiplier" of inflation of house prices is small. yes over 10 years you could multiply your initial investment. but with bitcoins 4 year cycles the amount increases more than in housing

as other said in housing you have to buy the whole building or take a loan to pay it off in piecemeal, but then you have interest ontop you have to pay for
where as bitcoin you just buy as much sats of a bitcoin you want

It doesn't make sense to compare Bitcoin and Landed property, both of them are good option for investment and they have their own disadvantages. Do you think put all of your money to one investment asset is a good idea? Nope, that's mean you're never learn about risk management.

I will choose both of them since I invest on both Bitcoin and Landed property, but most of my money goes to Bitcoin since I'm really trust with Bitcoin and the future journey.

This type of comparison only works when at least one option is considered a bad investment like comparing bitcoin with altcoins then decide which one to invests in. But when both options are viable then the comparison is wrong.

You should consider them both at the same time. In fact the best way to invest your money is to diversify which means finding assets that have nothing in common (their markets are not linked) and investing in all. Meaning if you buy both bitcoin and land, things that affect bitcoin price do not affect land price and vice versa which makes them both good options for diversification.

Of course generally speaking you should educate yourself in both fields to know how to invest, where to invest (eg. land location), when to invest and how to secure your investment (eg. cold storage).

OP, you should have added an option for "both" .....because people should have a balanced investment portfolio, that contains a mix between "low" / "medium" / "high" risk investments. The investor should decide what percentage of funds should be invested into each category.

I prefer to have an aggressive portfolio, where I invest say 40% into low risk investments and also 40% into high risk investments like Crypto currencies. Only 20% goes into medium risk investments .... but other investors might decide to have a more conservative investment portfolio, with much less invested into Crypto currencies. (High risk investment) 

I don't see an option for both in the poll?
So, not everyone can afford to buy a land and develop it  in a year. That's the main reason why a lot of people would prefer Bitcoin, because it's always available in the market and you will be able to buy fractions of it until you acquire a whole.
Land property takes time to develop. Once you purchase a property, you won't be expecting any return for the next 2-5 years depending on your capital and how you develop it to create a passive income stream.
it would be a wise decision if you start with Bitcoin.

I will rather invest in Bitcoin in this bearish season than landed property, because landed property use to take a long process before you can get the necessary documents that will make the property legal for you to use compared to Bitcoin investment, both the new and the old investors can invest in this bearish season, and have hope of achieving something good before the end of this year. There are some signs already in the crypto market that showed that there is a big hope for Bitcoin investors, because the price of Bitcoin will definitely increase higher in this month of November to remain stable through out the Christmas and new year celebration to enable long term investors to experience favour from their investment.
