Christie’s International Real Estate has officially launched a new division dedicated to luxury property transactions using digital currencies like bitcoin. This bold move allows buyers and sellers to complete high-end real estate deals entirely in cryptocurrency—without needing to go through traditional banks.
Led by Aaron Kirman, CEO of Christie’s International Real Estate Southern California, the division builds on the momentum of recent crypto-backed property sales, including a record-breaking $65 million deal for a Beverly Hills mansion.
Over $1 Billion in Luxury Homes Now Listed for Bitcoin
Christie’s new crypto division has already attracted more than $1 billion worth of luxury homes from sellers who are open to accepting bitcoin. Featured properties include the ultra-modern $118 million La Fin mansion in Bel Air, and the striking $18 million Invisible House located in Joshua Tree.
The division is supported by a dedicated team of legal experts, analysts, and crypto specialists. Their role is to ensure that all transactions are secure, transparent, and fully compliant with emerging digital asset regulations.
The Future of Real Estate Is Going Digital
The real estate industry is increasingly embracing digital currencies, and Christie’s move reflects this trend. Discussions are currently underway with financial institutions to explore bitcoin-backed financing options, which could further expand crypto’s role in the property market.
Federal support for digital assets is also growing, with new legislation like the Genius Act and Clarity Act aimed at bringing more clarity and security to crypto transactions. According to Aaron Kirman, the integration of cryptocurrency in real estate is not a passing trend—he believes it’s a lasting shift that will only grow stronger in the years to come.
As the world moves toward more decentralized and tech-driven solutions, Christie’s is positioning itself at the forefront of the crypto-real estate revolution.
