I'l keep saying this regardless of how unpopular it is over here: Bitcoin is a perfect store of wealth. But it doesn't produce income. Real estate does and it can even be a self-sustained positive cash flow -- it's just that it comes with the inevitable risk associated to any sort of profit, as you're experiencing. So it depends what you want to do with that money you're spending: keep it protected but not growing, or risk some of it trying to create a positive cash flow. "Just buy Bitcoin" is not good advice in the void.

To each his own. I'm not built for real estate investing or managing tenants. Some people play the game smarter then others. For me, it's bitcoin and chill.

This is my take. The growth opportunity right now is different in a decade. Right now, it’s effectively delivering income because of the added growth. When adoption rate stops mattering. It’ll level. If inflation slows, it’ll stabilize further. As supply and demand start to neutralize it’ll slow. You’re right that bitcoin is not a business that creates income. Real estate is a business that creates income. But most people that own real estate don’t want to be in that business, and just do that because there’s nothing better to preserve the value of their savings and long-term wealth accumulation. Bitcoin is an alternative to that. But it’s not an alternative to running a business that creates income. Do both. Bitcoin is definitely lower maintenance than a real estate portfolio.
