According to an official announcement on December 30, the move marks the company’s foray into the crypto space, aligning with its commitment to innovation and evolving market trends.
Cryptocurrency Integration and Payment Flexibility
Janover’s adoption of crypto payments aims to provide clients with greater flexibility and a more modern transaction experience. According to the company, these digital payment options will reduce friction for stakeholders in the commercial real estate ecosystem.
The firm said its decision to enter the crypto bandwagon stemmed from increasing support for digital assets on both a “domestic policy level and within broader financial markets.”
“At Janover, we remain focused on our core business. We do, however, recognize the broadening acceptance and significant future potential of digital currencies like Bitcoin. We’ve seen how companies like MicroStrategy have successfully capitalized on Bitcoin’s appreciation, and we believe there’s an opportunity to participate in the market in a measured responsible way,” said the company’s CEO, Blake Janover.
In addition to accepting crypto payments, Janover is exploring a treasury allocation plan to incorporate Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana into its reserves. This dual approach reflects Janover’s intent to both innovate within the payment landscape and participate in the growing digital asset economy.

Janover’s announcement follows a broader trend of corporate adoption of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in 2024. For example, Last week, KULR Technology Group purchased 217.18 BTC, valued at approximately $21 million, as part of its Bitcoin Treasury strategy.
