The US housing regulator will study the use of cryptocurrencies in mortgage eligibility
2025-06-24 08:55:05
The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) director Bill Pulte announced that the agency will study how to include cryptocurrency holdings in the mortgage eligibility process, The Block reported. As the independent regulator responsible for overseeing Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and federal home loan banks, the FHFA's move marks the wider recognition of digital currencies in mainstream finance. Pulte himself has been investing in cryptocurrencies since 2019, and his financial disclosures show he holds $50- $1 million worth of Bitcoin and Solana. Pulte took over as FHFA director in March following Trump's nomination, but has not yet announced the specific scope of the study, the types of cryptocurrencies considered, or the timeline for the study.
