Crypto vs. Lunar Real Estate: Which Investment Is Out of This World?

Bitcoin mining and lunar deeds may share similar kinds of magical thinking, but only one has Jamie Dimon’s stamp of approval.

I used to own the Moon. Well, not the entire thing — just imagine the upkeep costs, not to mention the cosmic HOA dues! Rather, in a misguided birthday present, I was given 10 sercas of the Lighted Lunar Surface in a quadrant I think was a few squares south of the extreme northwest corner of the recognized Lunar chart. It cost $20 in 1980, and you can get your own today for just $34.99.

This article from Bloomberg Opinion explores the parallels between cryptocurrency investments and lunar land ownership, questioning the rationality behind both. While crypto has gained mainstream attention and even approval from some traditional financiers, lunar deeds remain a novelty. The comparison highlights the speculative nature of both assets and the fine line between innovation and fantasy.
