TREE NEWS update: Former Huobi founder Li Lin has sold The Holme, a mansion in London’s Regent’s Park, for about £190 million, roughly two years after buying it for £139 million. The 40-bedroom property, previously held by a Saudi prince and his family, sits on a four-acre private garden next to the US ambassador’s residence and is held on a long lease from the Crown Estate.

The sale is notable less for the headline price than for the signal it sends about crypto-derived wealth rotating into trophy real estate, and back out again as market conditions shift. It also highlights how the Crown Estate leasehold structure keeps such assets tied to a specific, narrow buyer pool. Whether this reflects broader portfolio rebalancing by crypto founders, or simply a one-off disposal, is the open question worth watching.
