There’s something more entertaining than news about World War III: the tokenization of real estate! Do you know what this is?
This is when, instead of actually owning an apartment, you own a piece of virtual right to it. Nothing suspicious. Just an evolution of freedom.
So, attention:
According to a new report from Deloitte Center for Financial Services, the tokenized real estate market, which in 2024 will barely breathe with a volume of less than 300 billion dollars, is suddenly expected to swell to 4 trillion by 2035!
That is, according to their logic, in ten years tokens on pieces of office buildings will be as popular as credit cards and TikTok are today.
How will this happen?
Very simple:
• Jobs are disappearing due to remote work and robots, office buildings are turning into warehouses for servers, and you become a proud owner of three pixels in a data center on the outskirts of Philadelphia.
• Climate risks are causing people to overpay for 'green homes', while you invest in a token on the corner of a solar panel.
• And of course, geopolitics! While the world oscillates between trade wars and new sanctions from President Trump, people are rushing into tokenized gold and... real estate on the blockchain.
And here you are, surrounded by NFT cats and equity rights to an unfinished studio in Las Vegas, dreaming of a bright future.
The numbers are impressive:
• An annual growth of 27% is projected.
• On April 10, 2025, daily volumes of tokenized gold exceeded $1 billion — that's more than some banks have seen in a month.
• Even now, the demand for real assets (RWA) on the blockchain is growing faster than your disappointment in the traditional economy.
As always, there's a small nuance that is modestly forgotten in official reports: liquidity.
No matter how beautiful your token looks on a super-decentralized platform, no one guarantees that tomorrow you will be able to sell it for more. Or sell it at all.
Even Michael Sonnenstein, COO of Securitize, stated directly at Paris Blockchain Week:
"The blockchain market craves liquidity, not illiquid assets like real estate."
Translation: "Who needs your token for a warehouse in Ohio if you can't exchange it for at least shawarma tomorrow?"
No matter how we mock it, tokenization is a real trend.
Because it is backed not only by a beautiful theory but also by an unstoppable force: people's desire to access what was once only for billionaires.
Tokens provide the opportunity:
• Invest with a minimal amount in huge assets,
• Doing this through your phone from any country,
• And possibly earn real income without having to go to a bank and ask for a mortgage with an interest rate of 20% per annum
The future is already here.
Get ready: tomorrow you can proudly say that you own 0.000021% of an elite residential complex in San Francisco. And yes, it sounds better than 'I'm renting a studio for 2000 bucks a month.'
Welcome to a new era! Where instead of a home, you are given a token, and instead of keys — a QR code.
And all this, of course, for your freedom.
