BlockBeats News, July 18th, according to Cointelegraph's report, as Australian housing prices continue to outpace income growth, a company has launched a Bitcoin-backed mortgage, providing a new way for cryptocurrency holders to enter the real estate market without selling their assets.

This Wednesday, Block Earner unveiled Australia's first Bitcoin-backed home loan. Previously, the company had persisted in a legal battle with regulators for over two years. The launch of this product was made possible by an April ruling by the Federal Court, which determined that Block Earner's cryptocurrency lending product did not fall under the definition of a "financial product" under the Corporations Act.

This ruling means that the company can accept Bitcoin as collateral in mortgage transactions without holding a financial services license.

In this product, the borrower's crypto assets are held in custody by the Fireblocks platform. Bitcoin is used as collateral to secure cash loans of up to 50% of the property value, complemented by a standard mortgage structure to complete the financing.
