Still, real estate NFTs promise the ability to democratize property ownership, a space that has historically excluded a majority of the world. GoBankingRates quoted a research analyst at Grayscale Investments who noted that historically, real-estate value is largely influenced by proximity to shops, services and attractive neighborhoods.

When the move occurred, analysts quickly reasoned that Bitcoin’s 8.5% correction was directly connected to the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting, which starts on Dec. 15. Investors are afraid that the Federal Reserve will eventually start tapering, which simply put, is a reduction of the Federal Reserve’s bond repurchasing program. The logic is that a revision of…
