The plan is to borrow against the crypto at a safe LTV (around 30–45%)Then deploy the liquidity into short-term real estate plays, like: Fix & flip, Foreclosure or auction properties, Short-term rentals / Airbnb, Value-add resale plays.The idea is to keep the crypto appreciating in the background while using the borrowed capital to generate cash flow or flips — essentially a dual upside strategy.I’m NOT trying to overleverage or chase hype.

It is easy to poke holes at something that you don't understand and in some ways may be over-hyped and has a high dollar entry value.  

 @JD MartinYou’re not wrong — a huge part of the economy has shifted from creating real value to selling shortcuts, hype, and repackaged information.

and so then you're at zero, and you're probably breaking even or even slightly negative on rent.contrary to the hype i am in the camp that thinks you need to be very well capitalized and prepared to spend money for a few years to start a portfolio. 

In a way, the hype dying down is a good thing, as prices jumped way too high post-pandemic.

I myself fell prey to that hype in the 70's and once I realized where the facts lay, I exited in 99.

Jim right now he (Minkow)  is going after low hanging fruit that is anyone / company that did MF syndication and got caught in the hype of a few years ago and the massive change to the industry with rates rising cost rising and vacancies rising.. not many in MF syndication that were doing highly leveraged deals to compete with other offerings have gone  unscathed or have projects that simply are not or will not perform based on original assumptions or pro fromas  So pretty easy to take pot shots at all these entities/companies etc..

I agree from the consumers standpoint this is a non-issue and frankly probably not worth the hype its getting There are SOME muncapalities where there are minor tax implications but most folks just want to know how much their stay costs and compare it to other options based on total cost. 

Some pockets are still under the radar compared to Destin or 30A, and I’ve seen some investors find decent value by stepping just outside the most hyped areas while still holding the beach proximity card.Also if you’re open to it, I’d love to hear how you're underwriting appreciation vs cash flow when you're looking at something like a beachfront condo.

My suggestion is doing what's less popular might actually win the race over time, so don't fall into hyped strategies.
