There\u2019s a special bond between mothers and their sons. For pseudonymous Alan, a 28-year-old engineer, a Bitcoin (BTC) loan helped his mom to buy a house.<\/p>\n
Alan told Cointelegraph that he took out a Bitcoin-backed loan in 2021 \u2014 serendipitously on his sister\u2019s birthday \u2014 to gift his mom the tax-free money. She then used the funds to buy a house in North Yorkshire, England, while Alan kept his Bitcoin. <\/p>\n
