FHFA Director William J. Pulte recently issued an order directing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to consider crypto currency as an asset for single-family loans. According to Pulte’s directive, cryptocurrency is an emerging asset class that may offer an opportunity to build wealth outside of the stock & bond markets. In addition, prior to implementing any changes, each enterprise must submit their plans to the FHFA (after their respective boards approval) for review.

Pulte on X.
