UK Home Prices Soar Over 13,000% Since 1950s, Outpacing Bitcoin's Growth

Wow, look at how the average price of a home in the UK has increased since 1950's... looks like a Bitcoin price chart!


The average price of homes in the United Kingdom has been on a steady rise since the 1950s. In 1952, the average price of a UK home was £2,006, which would equate to around £70,000 in today's money. 

By 2022, the average price of a UK home had risen to £265,668. This represents an increase of over 13,000% since the 1950s. 

There are a number of factors that have contributed to the increase in UK home prices over the years. One of the most significant factors has been the growth of the UK economy.

By 2022, the average price of a UK home had risen to £265,668. This represents an increase of over 13,000% since the 1950s. 

There are a number of factors that have contributed to the increase in UK home prices over the years. One of the most significant factors has been the growth of the UK economy. 

As the country has become wealthier, demand for housing has increased, pushing up prices. Another important factor has been the UK's population growth. More people in the UK means more demand for housing, which again leads to higher prices. 

In addition to these broader economic factors, there have also been a number of policy changes that have influenced UK home prices. For example, in the 1980s, the government introduced a policy of "right to buy" for council tenants, which allowed them to purchase their homes at a discounted rate. This policy led to a significant increase in the number of homeowners in the UK, and also contributed to rising home prices. 

More recently, changes to the UK's tax system have also had an impact on home prices. For example, in 2016, the government introduced a new stamp duty system, which increased the amount of tax payable on more expensive properties. This change has led to a slowdown in the growth of high-end property prices, while prices for more affordable homes have continued to rise. 

Overall, the trend towards higher home prices in the UK looks set to continue. While there may be occasional dips in prices due to economic or policy changes, the underlying demand for housing in the country remains strong. As such, those looking to buy a home in the UK should expect to pay a significant premium compared to prices in previous decades.

Could Central Banks Secretly Buy Bitcoin? 5% for circa $30 Billion USD. Experts Weigh in on the Implications

If the US Federal Reserve or the Bank of England wanted to quietly and secretly buy 5% of of all Bitcoins that would only be approximately 1,000,000 (one million) Bitcoins. At today's price that would be circa $30 Billion US dollars. They print their own money, think about that!

Consider this scenario: If either the US Federal Reserve or the Bank of England were to discreetly purchase 5% of the total Bitcoin supply, which is approximately 1,000,000 Bitcoins, it would cost roughly $30 billion USD at current market prices. It's worth noting that these financial institutions have the ability to print their own currency, which is a crucial point to consider.

Suppose the US Federal Reserve or the Bank of England quietly and discreetly purchased 5% of the total Bitcoin supply, amounting to approximately 1,000,000 Bitcoins, at today's market price, which would be around $30 billion USD. This possibility has raised concerns and sparked debates among experts in the cryptocurrency industry. As Meltem Demirors, the Chief Strategy Officer at CoinShares, said in an interview with CNBC, "Central banks could start to acquire bitcoin...It's not out of the realm of possibility." However, she also highlighted the potential consequences of such a move, stating, "There would be knock-on effects across the financial system, on various industries, and on countries that have taken different approaches to digital assets." It is unclear if or when such a scenario may come to fruition, but it certainly warrants further consideration and analysis.

Bitcoin Core on Github and Bitcoin Improvement Proposals (BIPs)

If you are doing your research and learning about Bitcoin, these links on GitHub will assist you:

The development of Bitcoin is managed by a group of developers who work on the Bitcoin Core software. This software is open source, which means that anyone can contribute to its development. The code for Bitcoin Core is available on the popular code hosting platform, GitHub. The GitHub repository for Bitcoin Core is located at https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin. 

The Bitcoin Core software is responsible for managing the Bitcoin network. It includes the software for the Bitcoin node, which is the software that allows users to participate in the network by sending and receiving transactions. The software also includes the Bitcoin wallet, which is the software that allows users to store and manage their Bitcoin. The development of Bitcoin Core is managed by a team of experienced developers. They work to improve the software, fix bugs, and implement new features. The development process for Bitcoin Core is very open, and anyone can contribute to the codebase. This means that the development of Bitcoin is a collaborative effort, with many people working together to improve the software. 

The GitHub repository for Bitcoin Core is a valuable resource for anyone who is interested in the development of Bitcoin. It includes the source code for the software, as well as documentation and information on how to contribute to the project. The repository also includes a list of known issues and a roadmap for future development.

Bitcoin Improvement Proposals (BIPs) are design documents that propose changes or improvements to the Bitcoin protocol or its related components. BIPs are written by contributors to the Bitcoin community, such as developers, researchers, and other stakeholders, and are subject to peer review and feedback. BIPs are a way for the Bitcoin community to collaborate and make decisions on the development of the Bitcoin ecosystem in a transparent and inclusive manner. They serve as a standardized format for proposing changes and allow for community feedback and discussion before implementation. BIPs cover a wide range of topics, such as new transaction types, improvements to the Bitcoin scripting language, changes to the consensus rules, and new features for the Bitcoin network. Once a BIP has been accepted and implemented, it becomes part of the Bitcoin protocol, subject to the consensus rules that govern the network.
