Who would have thought that property deeds could improve? Bergen County is stepping into the future with a $240 billion tokenization project on the Avalanche blockchain!
Speaking of real estate 2.0!
I can't wait to see how this transforms the real estate market!

President of the Central African Republic congratulated "Bergen County for this bold decision.
In the Central African Republic, we take pride in leading innovation. My Presidential Decree has just launched the tokenization of over 1700 hectares of land.
Digital sovereignty is the future. $CAR," he said.
Bergen County will tokenize $240 billion in property titles on the Avalanche blockchain.
The five-year project will digitize 370,000 property titles across the most populated county in New Jersey, USA.
Although some are asking:
Does this mean that assets under management (AUM) and total value locked (TVL) increase by 240 billion? Or what does this imply for traditional Web3 metrics?
Or is there a new metric for RWA on-chain?
Tokenizing properties means converting real estate into digital tokens on a blockchain, enabling fractional ownership and facilitating trade. Physical deeds are digitized, turned into tokens, and recorded on a blockchain like Avalanche, as seen in Bergen County, New Jersey, where 370,000 deeds are being tokenized for a value of $240 billion. This improves efficiency, reducing processing times by over 90%, and enhances security and transparency. However, challenges include regulatory uncertainty, high installation costs, and potential cybersecurity risks. Adoption may be slow due to a lack of familiarity, and environmental concerns persist despite Avalanche's energy-efficient design.
