Don't remind me again today

The housing crisis keeps getting worse. Six years ago, you could afford a median-priced home in the US. Today? You'd need 70% more income just to break even. We're officially at peak unaffordability—worse than 2008, worse than any point in recorded history. This squeeze on disposable income isn't just a real estate problem anymore. When people are this stretched thin on basic shelter costs, risk appetite changes. Makes you wonder how long before we see this pressure ripple through equity markets and alternative assets.

The on-chain costs are so high, and the real estate prices are only going to make it worse? This is just absurd. --- A 70% income gap... how many months of gas fees would it take to fill that in? --- Wow, this data is even more desperate than when Luna collapsed; it's no wonder everyone is buying the dip on altcoins now. --- Can't afford a house, but at least I can hodl my on-chain assets... right? --- Record high housing prices paired with historically low purchasing power, what does this little fluctuation in the crypto world mean? --- When people run out of money, their risk tolerance drops; sounds like it's hinting at something. --- Interestingly, those who go bankrupt tend to go all in; isn't that logic reversed?

If housing prices keep rising like this, the money of the working class will be drained by the vampire landlords, and what can we do with Crypto Assets?

The housing price situation is really outrageous, with a 70% income gap... To be honest, people in the crypto world have seen through it long ago; traditional assets are bound to collapse.

Being on the brink of bankruptcy is even more cringe, who would dare to touch coins?

The housing prices can't hold up anymore; even altcoins can't save the situation.

The housing prices are really something, a 70% income gap? The crypto world isn't this brutal either. --- To be honest, with this trend, even Spot will crash. --- Wait a minute, isn't this logic reversed... high shelter costs will actually lead to dumping? --- No wonder retail investors are all buying coins, they can't afford houses. --- The housing situation in the U.S. is really fucking crazier than 2008. --- People are out of money, and the only thing left to eat are high-risk assets. --- This pressure will eventually transmit to crypto, better be prepared early. --- Speaking of which, if there's really such a lack of money, how come some people still dare to play with leverage... --- Suddenly understand why everyone is rushing into contracts now.
