Blockchain Realty Report #8

Week in Review

This week, property tokenization entered new frontiers—geographically and structurally. In India, a first-mover platform opened the door for fractional land ownership on-chain, while Maharashtra’s ambition to unlock over 50 trillion INR in dormant capital underlines the scale of change. Meanwhile Europe-US issuance technology firms paired up for cross-border property tokens, and the UAE’s Abu Dhabi Real Estate Centre (ADREC) moved to digitize transactions end-to-end. Governments + tech are marrying, and real-estate token-markets are shifting from promise to infrastructure.

India’s commercial capital launches ₹50 trillion (US$566 billion) tokenization drive to streamline property deals & on-chain lending

Date: 7 Nov 2025 (IST) — CoinGeek

Mumbai, under Maharashtra’s leadership, launched a framework to unlock approximately ₹50 trillion in idle capital via asset tokenization, with a heavy focus on real-estate deals and on-chain borrowing. The state aims to become India’s first “tokenised state,” slashing decades-long project timelines to months through digitized asset flows. The push reflects how structural reform is converging with Web3 infrastructure to open new liquidity channels for property.

Landlord’s Corner

What a week. Renters are talking about moving out early, even though we agreed to a six month minimum. We'll need to consider whether it's fair to let them out of the agreement, or whether we should encourage them to hold up their end of the bargain. We only rented to them under the agreement they would stay at least 6 months! Of course, the rental laws here allow them to request moving out with 30 days notice without penalty, so I will honor those requests the best I can to avoid drama and any legal issues.

From Ahmedabad to Abu Dhabi, we’re seeing a wave of jurisdictions building tokenization scaffolding around property. Startups matter, yes—but real momentum is now in platforms, regulators and state-chains. Landbitt enables fractional land shares, DigiShares + BrickMark build issuance rails, Abu Dhabi’s ADREC lays the digital transaction track, and Mumbai leaps for capital unlocking. If you’re a real-estate operator, developer or investor, the question is no longer “if” you’ll tokenize, but “when and where.” The infrastructure is live—in more places than ever.

Let’s grow this space together.
