Block Earner Bulletin: You sure you can’t live in a Bitcoin?

Firstly, a humble brag. Block Earner proudly won the Excellence in Web3/Blockchain award at Fintech Australia’s annual event. This is actually the second time we’ve won…in a row. We’re so proud of the work we’re doing and thank you for your ongoing support.

It is however, getting options traders very excited as they can start to take some long term bets without much short term downside - high volume options typically precede a big move so watch that space!

You may or may not have heard, but we’re launching an Aussie first: BTC-Backed Homeloans. Be sure to join the waitlist so you’ll be the first to know when you can purchase your dream home using BTC—while still benefiting from its potential upside.

We’re proud to announce we won the Finnies award for Excellence in Web3 (again). A massive thank you to our community - we could not have done it without you.
