Looking at this from the reverse view, I remember a young guy posted here a long time ago that he had sold a house he had inherited from his father and bought bitcoin with all the proceeds. I think the BTC price might have been $300 at the time. I often wonder if he held on long term to his coins. Which would now buy him an entire street of 100 houses or more.
At the time many here were saying he was crazy to risk all of his fathers lifetimes work, while others - who had a good inkling of where the coin was heading - applauded and encouraged the young guy.
I remember that guy. It was not a 'childhood home' for him. He was so dubious sounding about it all, I wouldn't be surprised if he sold. I haven't looked it up.
I know that Elwar sold his house for bitcoin around that time. Not sure about the origins of the house.
