The Bitcoin Affordability Index tracks how many Irish houses 1 BTC can buy. In 2013, you needed hundreds of BTC for one house. Today, ~0.23 houses per BTC. The trend shows Bitcoin gaining purchasing power against Irish property.
Ireland consistently builds fewer homes than needed. Annual completions ~30,000 vs estimated demand of 50,000+. Immigration adds ~100,000 people annually, exacerbating the supply-demand gap.
Irish construction costs per square metre are among the highest in Europe. Labour shortages, material costs, planning delays, and regulatory requirements all contribute to high building costs.
