So the journey of "never sell your bitcoin" continues. Working with a new bank who told me they could work a deal with an asset backed mortgage. In fact, all they want me to do is literally convert the bitcoin to USD for the exact amount of the mortgage which is stupid. I've gotten many great hot takes from the broker...
"Bitcoin is just too opaque for us"
Sir, it's literally a public ledger.
"Wow you've done really well with bitcoin, you should sell it"
No
"You know i'm really concerned about quantum computing and bitcoin"
Your bank will be out of business too if quantum computing cracks SHA256 tomorrow. Everything is done. All electronic systems will be compromised. Banking, infrastructure, agriculture, transportation, etc...
"You know it's funny i had a guy in 2020 with $27m of bitcoin. I should have bought some then."
Do you have any now?
"No, i'm more of a trader. I stick to what i know."
"What if some billionaire dies and he loses his bitcoin?"
That's a gift to all holders. Circulating supply reduces.
"π¦"
So yea, "never sell your bitcoin" is still a fantasy for plebs.

Your going to need a bank who values the asset as collateral. Lets say you have 10 BTC and you buy a house for 400k. You would transfer 4 BTC into a joint wallet with the bank. Neither party could move the coins without the other key.
An interest rate would be determined and you would make monthly payment to the bank. When bank receives payment their is a normal mortgage. Each month a portion of your bitcoin would be released back to you.
The value of the bitcoin would not matter. Even if the price goes down the bank does not force you to reup. The fiat value of the bitcoin is mot part of the deal.
That is a rambled idea but i think there is something to it
