Real estate tokenization service officially launched on Polygon!

Real-world assets (RWA) tokenization trading platform--RealEstate.Exchange (REX) has launched real estate tokenization services on the Polygon network and established a compliant secondary market to facilitate fragmented real estate investments for retail investors, and is committed to solving the industry's liquidity challenges.

At the same time, the REX platform will launch two luxury properties in Miami, Florida, including The Legacy Hotel & Residences, a building with 529 units managed by FraXion, and a residential complex with 38 units managed by Trade Estate.

The choice of Polygon was no accident. Polygon is the blockchain of choice for REX due to its low transaction fees, fast settlements, and high security. At the same time, Polygon currently has a daily trading volume of more than $1 billion, ranking 13th in the public chain trading volume.

By fragmenting real estate into tokenized assets, investors can trade property shares like buying and selling cryptocurrencies, eliminating the need to wait for the lengthy property transfer process. DigitShares CEO Claus Skaaning revealed that in addition to the first two projects, there are 5-6 properties being prepared for launch, covering a variety of types including residential, commercial, and luxury real estate.

In addition, in terms of compliance, REX has obtained an operation license from Texture Capital registered with the US SEC, and is currently applying for licenses under the EU MiCA and MiFID frameworks, with future plans to expand into the UAE and South African markets. Its parent company DigitShares has supported tokenization real estate transactions worth $100-200 million since 2018, making it quite experienced.

Currently, the RWA tokenization market is rapidly expanding, reaching a scale of $62 billion, with the number of real estate tokens leading at 595. Mantra Finance's CEO predicts that on-chain real estate assets could reach several trillion dollars in the future.

In summary, the launch of REX not only opens the door for retail investors to high-end real estate investments but also marks an important step in the transformation of traditional financial infrastructure through blockchain technology.

It is believed that with the UAE and other places actively embracing tokenized real estate, coupled with the introduction of new EU regulations, 2025 is likely to be a critical year for the outbreak of RWA.
