xMoney Team
Summary
The article examines how real estate transactions, particularly high-value ones, are still reliant on outdated payment infrastructure like international bank transfers, multiple intermediaries, and settlement delays — despite a growing share of wealthy investors and digital nomads holding assets in cryptocurrencies.
