Lastly, there are 12% of people who were surveyed have shown interest in owning Vaycaychella, a subsidiary of WSG that specializes in owning short-term rental properties through the payment of cryptocurrency.

For those who are not informed, Vaycaychella was acquired by WSG last year and will soon have a name change sometime soon. As for what is the purpose of Vaycaychella, it has built peer-to-peer (P2P) solutions that are usually focused on technology in mind.

The purpose of that P2P solution is meant to connect short-term rental property buyers with potential alternative investors in the market. In the said solution, a Visa Card solution is involved in the cryptocurrency component of it.

Additionally, the said subsidiary is known for various short-term property investments that are usually related to vacation properties. Do take note that the said properties are those that don't qualify for conventional mortgages set up by many mortgage lending institutions and companies.

Now under the WSG banner, Vaycaychella is aiming to scale its business model by introducing P2P technology in the said market.

WSG's Announcement of Creating and Developing a Real Estate Cryptocurrency

According to Cision PR Newswire, WSG has announced the creation and development of a cryptocurrency strategy that can be easily used in the real estate market industry.

They have recently announced this plan and strategy on the 20th of January, 2020. That is when the survey for the above topic was held.

The main reason as to why WSG started this is due to the burgeoning of the short-term rental property sector in the overall real estate market.

That issue was evident in the previous incident of Airbnb IPO (their stock prices), wherein it was affected negatively by the said issue in the short-term rental property sector.
