 How would a normie buy a large sum of #Bitcoin , i.e. anything over $10k?

Is this even possible? How is Blackrock buying huge amounts?

Like if I sold my house, how could I quickly roll that equity into BTC?

I am thinking its not possible? 
 on an exchange? 
 My understanding is most exchanges have limits for individuals, such as $10k per week.

How you gonna roll say $170k into BTC in a short time frame? 
 contact a minig company maybe.. buy it otc..  
 ok, kraken the limits are huge, harder if you want to do it privately, a lot depends on which country you're in 
 a lot depends on which country you are in to start with, there are several options i can think of 
 once you have a signed account in #bisq you could buy up all offers there... i also heard that companies like pocket or relai can be asked for bigger amounts..  
 Unchained Capital? 
 Will they let you self-custody? Seems like another bank 
 They exclusively have you self custody

Their core offering is a 2/3 multisig setup

I’m not even sure if you can buy without having a wallet set up to withdraw to 
 You can make essentially any size trades using swan or unchained 
 Bro's selling his house for the halving pump.      I'm not bullish enough. 
 You can wire transfer $10k plus to strike no drama. 
 they have a corporate exchange account, they have vast limits on them and they could have made deals with miners  
 If you sell your house or otherwise have a very large lump sum, I recommend River Financial. 
They have no problem dealing with huge buys and withdraws, and the fees are low as well. 
 This is the way, by the way. Selling real estate for bitcoin is extremely intelligent
