Blocksquare, a global leader in real estate tokenization, has announced a strategic partnership with decentralized finance (DeFi) platform Polytrade. This collaboration aims to accelerate the adoption of tokenized real estate, combining Blocksquare’s innovative real estate infrastructure with Polytrade’s marketplace to enhance liquidity, transparency, and accessibility for investors.
The partnership is set to integrate Blocksquare’s technology, which has already tokenized over 140 properties across 20 countries, into Polytrade’s decentralized marketplace. This move is expected to provide institutional and retail investors with the ability to invest in real estate via tokenized assets, offering lower capital requirements and greater flexibility compared to traditional real estate investments.
Denis Petrovcic, CEO of Blocksquare, emphasized the potential of the collaboration: “Real estate is the largest asset class globally, yet bringing its value on-chain has been challenging. With this partnership, we’re bridging the gap, making it easier for investors to gain exposure to real estate assets. By leveraging our platform, Polytrade users can now diversify their portfolios with real estate without needing to invest substantial capital.”
The integration marks a key milestone in the tokenization of Real-World Assets (RWAs), a growing trend in the blockchain space. As global economic conditions continue to shift, with fluctuating interest rates and inflationary concerns, tokenized real estate presents a unique opportunity for investors looking for stability in tangible assets. Blocksquare’s infrastructure and Polytrade’s decentralized ecosystem aim to meet this demand by offering increased liquidity and new investment opportunities through tokenized properties.
Piyush Gupta, Founder of Polytrade, highlighted the significance of the partnership: “This collaboration is another pivotal moment in the evolution of RWA tokenization. By bringing Blocksquare’s real estate assets into Polytrade’s ecosystem, we’re expanding investment opportunities and delivering unprecedented access to real estate for our users. Our goal is to provide transparency, liquidity, and growth potential to all participants in this space.”
The partnership also benefits marketplace operators already using Blocksquare’s platform to tokenize and list properties. These operators will now gain access to Polytrade’s extensive DeFi network, exposing their tokenized real estate assets to a broader user base. This collaboration is expected to drive significant market activity, foster community-driven growth, and attract new investors from the DeFi world.
Polytrade, known for its marketplace offering a diverse range of tokenized RWAs—including t-bills, stocks, commodities, and more—has built a strong presence with over 60,000 users. By adding real estate as a new asset class, Polytrade users can now explore additional avenues for portfolio diversification. The two companies anticipate that their joint efforts will further fuel the growing momentum of tokenized real-world assets, particularly in the real estate sector.
Blocksquare provides blockchain-based real estate tokenization solutions. Based in Ljubljana, Slovenia, the company’s platform enables the digitization of real estate assets and helps operators launch their own online marketplaces. Through its Oceanpoint platform, Blocksquare also adds a decentralized finance (DeFi) layer to enhance global access to real estate financing.
Polytrade is a leading DeFi platform specializing in Real-World Assets (RWAs), offering users access to tokenized assets such as t-bills, credit, real estate, and commodities. Backed by industry giants like Mastercard and Polygon, Polytrade’s marketplace facilitates the discovery, trade, and fractionalization of RWAs across multiple chains.
