        The rise of cryptocurrency in the real estate market in South Florida

        The rise of cryptocurrency in the real estate market in South Florida

        The rise of cryptocurrency in the real estate market in South FloridaCryptocurrency has made an impressive impact in the world in the past few years, marking a cutting-edge dynamic in the world economy. This impact has gotten to the real estate market, where now people can buy the property of their choice with Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, among other digital currencies.

        And South Florida and Miami are not strangers to this new payment way, where homeowners and development firms have acknowledged the magnitude and momentousness of the decentralized money, involving it in the process of buying or selling a home.

        And even though for some cryptocurrency is a bubble that will eventually burst and that it will not have lasting power, for now, the world has all its eyes on the digital gold and people have been using it to make a shift in the future of real estate buying power.

        Here are some of the most prominent examples where Cryptocurrency has made a grand entrance in the real estate sector.

        Arte Penthouse and the record-breaking cryptocurrency sale

        Bought with cryptocurrency, there is an oceanfront luxury penthouse in the Surfside neighborhood, Miami Beach, that recently made history in the South Florida real estate market since it was purchased with digital currency, equivalent to the astounding amount of $22.5 million. The home is situated in the Arte Surfside condo tower.

        The outstanding transaction was announced just a few weeks after Arte Surfside developers began a partnership with SolidBlock, a trading platform.

        This event is remarkable for cryptocurrency history, making this 5,067 Square Feet home the most expensive property to ever be paid for using bitcoin. This high-end penthouse offers residents exclusive amenities, including an indoor and outdoor swimming pool, a rooftop tennis court, a gym and yoga studio, and a children’s playroom. Besides, it features four magnificent bedrooms and four bathrooms, and a wine bar, in addition to an inviting 2,960 square feet wraparound terrace.

        David Guetta and his Miami condo

        Worldwide famous DJ David Guetta listed his Miami beachfront lower penthouse located at Setai Hotel and Residences, a luxurious 40-story hotel and condo development with a privileged view of the ocean and the super famed South Beach. The price for this gorgeous property? $14 million or 348 BTC (Bitcoin). The artist will also accept offers for his apartment in Ethereum coin.

        This ultra-lavish home designed by the Italian architect and designer Piero Lissoni is located on the 37th floor of the building, with an expansive area of 2,528 Square Feet, featuring 3 bedrooms, and 3 bathrooms with 2 master suites, and it is completely furnished. It also includes dazzling wraparound balconies.

        Guetta’s residence includes access to the resort-style amenities of the Setai Hotel, such as three magnificent oceanfront swimming pools, a fitness center, and glam spa, a 90-foot poolside bar, a boutique, and an art gallery.

        PMG and E11EVEN Hotel and Residences

        Development firm PMG has become a pioneer in the real estate field by carrying out a new milestone in the construction and buying process. And perhaps this firm is not the first company accepting cryptocurrency, however, PMG Development will become the first developer to accept digital gold for deposits on pre-construction condos.

        This is not the first approach from PMG into cryptocurrency, if we consider that in April 2021, E11EVEN Miami nightclub began accepting crypto. Now, E11EVEN Hotel & Residences, besides becoming one of the most anticipated construction projects in South Florida, is the first major development of this firm that will accept the digital currency from potential buyers.

        Located in Park West District, E11EVEN Hotel & Residences is an ultra-luxury breathtaking 65-story glass tower known for its fast-selling rate, grabbing the attention of celebrities and billionaires.

          10 celebrities and athletes who chose Miami as their home

          10 Celebrities and athletes who chose Miami as their home

          10 Celebrities and athletes who chose Miami as their homeMiami is a city that welcomes everybody with arms wide open and celebrities are very aware of this since this town has become one of the most inviting and popular destinations to settle in, thanks to the amazing weather, the stunning beaches, and especially the tranquility it offers to its residents.

          One of the most important aspects for celebrities to live in Miami is the privacy and exclusiveness the impressive homes offer, giving them an enjoyable experience where they can hang out freely without having to worry about the paparazzi and the noise of chaos.

          Here we present you 10 celebrities who chose Miami as their home, or at least, one of the select places they live in.

          Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber

          The supermodel and her entertainment industry businessman husband bought in March 2021 one of the exclusive condos in the Ritz-Carlton Residences. This waterfront construction located in Miami Beach was purchased by the couple for $3 million, expanding their empire of luxury dwellings in South Florida.

          They are also the proud owners of a magnificent, brand new waterfront property in an exclusive area of Miami Beach, which they bought at the end of 2020. This lavish 3,803-square-foot midcentury modern construction was sold to the celebrities for $9.625 million and it is strategically located very close to the residence owned by Josh Kushner and Karlie Kloss.

          Serena Williams

          Personally designed by her sister Venus, professional tennis player Serena Williams acquired an ultra-luxurious waterfront estate to the north of Miami, a fantastic enclave to enjoy the weather safely and on the sly. This 14,500-square-foot Spanish Mediterranean–style home is located just a few minutes away from Venus and her parents’ household.

          Serena moved into the redesigned estate in June 2020 with her husband and her toddler, to delight in the breathtaking Intracoastal views, making Florida her primary residence.

          Jennifer Lopez

          The last purchase of the singer and actress was in August 2020 when she was with her then-fiancé former Yankees Alex Rodriguez. They put down $32.5 million on a waterfront 14,762 square feet mansion on Miami’s exclusive Star Island. These 10 bedrooms and 10 and a half bathrooms, in addition to a 100-foot-long wooden dock with private access to the Atlantic, were a delight to settle in, but now it remains unclear what will be the future of this property.

          However, this is not the first estate of Lopez in the vibrant city. Back in 2002, the singer bought her first Miami home for an undisclosed amount, a Spanish-style beachfront mansion with 1.2 acres of land. She sold it for $13.9 million in 2005 and it was recently sold by singer Phil Collins for $40 million.

          Victoria and David Beckham

          The latest addition to the Beckhams is this extraordinary 10,335 square feet penthouse in One Thousand Museum, designed by Zaha Hadid. The price paid by the couple is unclear, but the asking price was set at $20 million. The luxury unit located in this futuristic tower was acquired in the first months of 2020.

          The penthouse comprises five bedrooms and six-and-a-half bathrooms, with stunning views of the city and water that can be seen through the large floor-to-ceiling windows.

          Pharrell Williams

          The megaproducer’s real estate dropped $30 million for a dreamy mansion in 700 Casuarina Concourse, in the tropical Coral Gables. The estate was purchased just in time for last year’s lockdown under the stay-at-home order in Florida back in April 2020.

          This 17,025-square-foot mansion sits on 3.3 acres and boasts 335 feet of waterfront, in addition to a 2,000-bottle wine cellar, a library, and a pub-style bar.

          Derek Jeter

At the time, he paid $19 million for the 12-bedroom, 13- and two-half-bathroom luxury household, built in a 1.3-acre area.

This residence is in the luxurious Marquis Miami on the 39th floor, in Downtown Miami and The Gronk paid $1.7M for this dazzling unit.
