NEW: 🟠 Coinbase and Fannie Mae partner with Better Home & Finance to launch Bitcoin-backed mortgages for U.S. homebuyers.

Borrowers can pledge Bitcoin or USD Coin as collateral for down payments, allowing them to keep their assets and avoid taxable sales.

Loans are structured as conforming mortgages backed by Fannie Mae, meaning they follow standard underwriting rules and carry the same protections as traditional home loans.

The product targets everyday buyers locked out by down payment constraints.

Better says 41% of U.S. families can’t purchase homes due to lack of liquidity, despite holding savings in other assets.

Rising interest rates and high home prices have tightened affordability.

A buyer targeting a $400K home may struggle to source $40K in cash without selling assets and navigating tax and legal friction.

Coinbase says the offering brings crypto into mainstream housing finance, calling it “as American as apple pie.”
