Real estate, one of the most profitable asset classes, has been inaccessible to most people because of the complex legal paperwork, management, selection process, and, most importantly, capital required. That might all change as two little-known technologies, tokenization, and fractional investment, go mainstream.
Tokenization is a process in which real estate assets are converted into digital tokens stored on a blockchain, allowing for digital ownership and the transfer of fractional shares. With a market cap of approximately $200 million and a market share of about 40%, real estate tokens have become one of the most popular digital securities investments. MetaWealth is one such platform that offers fractional ownership of tokenized real estate properties, breaking down conventional barriers to the market.
