Real estate AI platform Janover to accept crypto payments

Janover, a publicly traded real estate platform leveraging artificial intelligence, is preparing to accept Bitcoin and crypto for payments.

The Nasdaq-listed company announced on December 30 that it will accept payments in Bitcoin (BTC) and leading altcoins Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL). To adapt to the evolving market, Janover plans to introduce support for these payment options for a range of select services.

In the press release, Janover highlighted the growing adoption of digital assets supported by increased regulatory clarity in both domestic and global markets. The company joins a wave of businesses integrating Bitcoin strategies into their operations.

Blake Janover, the company’s founder and CEO, said:

“As Janover, we continue to focus on our core business. However, we recognize the expanding acceptance and significant future potential of digital currencies such as Bitcoin. “We have seen how companies like MicroStrategy have successfully capitalized on Bitcoin’s appreciation, and we believe there is an opportunity to participate in the market in a measured and responsible manner.”

In addition to accepting BTC, ETH and SOL for payments, Janover plans to allocate some of its treasury to these digital assets, underlining its commitment to integrating cryptocurrencies into its financial strategy.

The company’s shares rose sharply on Friday, December 27, 2024, rising from approximately $0.60 to $5.30. On December 30, JNVR opened higher and traded 2.4% around 09:44 BST, with its five-day performance standing at over 683%.

Meanwhile, Janover’s announcement on Monday came after MicroStrategy, the world’s largest BTC holder, announced that it had purchased another $209 million worth of assets. Microstrategy currently holds 446,400 BTC, which was purchased for $27.9 billion. Michael Saylor’s company is eyeing even more BTC amid surprising bullish predictions for the Bitcoin price.
