Landshare Team

As the year winds down, we’re immensely grateful to our dedicated community members, collaborators, partners, and everyone who has worked with us as pioneers in the RWA space. 2023 was a year to remember for Landshare, and we have even bigger ambitions for 2024!

In this article, we’re capping off 2023 by celebrating the year’s top achievements, outlining our core priorities going forward, and providing a detailed roadmap for the first half of 2024. Let’s dive in!

2023 Highlights

Tokenized House Flip

Early this year, we completed the first ever tokenized house flip, netting a 10%+ ROI in just a few months for our participants. In this process, we transformed a distressed property into something brand new, drastically increasing the property value. You can read about the renovation from start to finish in our Follow the Flip series.

Landshare DAO

This year also marked the launch of the Landshare DAO, which puts high-level decisions into the hands of LAND holders through a decentralized governance model. With this feature, LAND holders can control token emissions, staking rewards, treasury funds, and launch marketing initiatives autonomously.

To learn more about the Landshare DAO and how you can help shape the future of Landshare, be sure to check out our Deep Dive article and the Landshare Docs.

Real World Explorers

At the end of September, we launched an extensive community incentive program with a prize pool of 35,000 LAND tokens. During this period, we achieved 2.5 million impressions on social media, gained 1200 new token holders, received over 3000 registrations on the DS Dashboard, and welcomed several thousand new followers on X and Telegram community members.

This Friday, December 29th, we officially conclude the Zealy Sprint, marking the completion of the Real World Explorers program. The top 215 leaderboard participants will receive delightful New Year gifts from a 4,000 LAND prize pool.

We thank each explorer for their contributions and eagerly anticipate the opportunity to share what we have in store for the Landshare Shill Army.

Landshare RWA Token

To finish 2023 with a bang, we released our most ambitious update yet — the Landshare RWA Token!

With this new token, we’ve fundamentally reimagined our tokenization model, establishing a simple and secure way to gain exposure to real estate directly on-chain. Along with the new Token, we’ve introduced on-chain property valuations via Chainlink, new secondary trading market options, a UI/UX overhaul, and substantial improvements to the NFT ecosystem.

2024 Roadmap

With the final days of 2023 ticking away, we’re setting our sights on the agenda for the new year. We have established 4 Core Priorities for 2024, each of which will guide our decisions throughout the year. Our roadmap is built as an extension of these priorities, with each item serving to advance one or more of them.

  • Increased accessibility & integration: Making it easier to access Landshare’s core features; providing additional value through new partnerships and listings
  • Visibility & Community Engagement: Spreading the word about Landshare; leveraging the power of our community to assist in those efforts; creating opportunities for the community to provide direct and actionable feedback
  • Feature development & app improvements: Continuing to build upon and improve our existing features; developing new features which improve the usability and utility of the LAND and LSRWA Tokens
  • Property expansion & diversification: Seeking new opportunities in the real estate space, providing RWA Holders with a diversified and expanded property pool

Q1-Q2

  • New CEX listing
  • Cross-chain capabilities
  • Landshare Shill Army
  • RWA Token listing on DS Swap
  • Card payments for LAND and RWA Token
  • New property NFTs
  • Dark mode for Landshare App
  • App improvements and bug fixes

Year-long and Ongoing Updates

  • New Properties & Diversification
  • Quarterly DAO Voting for Development Roadmap
  • Regular Community Townhalls
  • Integrations and collaborations with other RWA projects

Over time, we have discovered that the most effective way to increase visibility and engagement with the platform is through grassroots, community driven programs and insightful write-ups from Key Opinion Leaders across multiple platforms. To this end, we’re crafting several new initiatives designed to increase visibility and leverage the power of community.

Landshare Shilling Army

As part of the Real-World Explorer program, we frequently conduct shilling quests where users share information about Landshare, thereby boosting awareness of our updates and events. While this approach has been effective, we recognized the need for a modernized version, and that’s exactly what we’ve achieved with the Shilling Army.

We’re now going beyond mere likes and retweets, delving into more meaningful engagement. We’ve created distinct categories for creatives, influencers, shillers, and a plethora of user-generated content that will be ready to launch in mid-January. More details about this campaign, including information on how to participate and fulfill requirements, will be shared tentatively on January 16. Stay tuned so you don’t miss out.

Key Opinion Leaders

As many influential voices in the crypto space focus in on the RWA narrative, it’s crucial to continue our work with Key Opinion leaders across the crypto space. We are focused on creators who craft well-researched, highly informative content which clearly highlights the benefits of our platform in a way that is accessible to a wide audience.

Landshare DAO Grants

Many of our community members may be familiar with the DAO Grant Program and content creation contests. In 2024, we’ll be doubling down our efforts, engaging community members and up-and-coming content creators to produce high-quality, insightful content across multiple domains.

Next up, we must ensure that the platform’s features are easily accessible and well-integrated with other projects. By breaking down barriers to entry and expanding integrations, we make it easier to get into Landshare and even improve the project’s visibility in the process.

New Exchange Listing

Although decentralized exchanges (DEXes) like Pancakeswap are a backbone of DeFi, many users prefer centralized exchanges as a way to buy and sell tokens. To make it easier for these users to get started with Landshare, we intend to list the LAND token on a new centralized exchange early in the year. This will not only allow us to reach more users, but also improve liquidity and opportunities for existing LAND holders.

Cross Chain Capabilities

As crypto moves to an increasingly multi-chain and cross-chain future, it’s imperative that our platform features are accessible through multiple chains. Cross-chain is one of our top priorities, and has been on the radar for a long time. With our latest platform updates as well as new advancements in cross-chain protocols, we have finally established a clear path towards a multi-chain Landshare ecosystem.

With cross-chain comes multiple benefits, including new partnership opportunities, wider access to platform features, and enhanced security. As one of our top priorities for H1 2024, we will continue to provide updates on the development of this feature, including a deep dive article in the coming weeks.

RWA Token Listing on DS Swap

After taking a major step forward with on-chain valuations [link] and fixed price liquidity for RWA Tokens, we will further expand secondary market options with a DS Swap listing for LSRWA. DS Swap will enable the exchange of LSRWA in an active secondary market, similar to Pancakeswap or Uniswap.

Card payment options

Funding a Web3 wallet like Metamask can be a major hurdle for DeFi newcomers. In order to smooth out the onboarding process, we intend to enable credit and debit card payment options for the LAND Token.

Our development will also be hard at work crafting new features and updates for the Landshare App. In addition to some new features yet to be announced, here are the top priorities for our development team entering in the new year.

NFT Migration & New NFTs

In the very near future, we will be completing the NFT migration process for existing NFT holders. With the new system, RWA Token Holders will be stack multiple NFTs for a single yield multiplier against their staked RWA Tokens.

Shortly thereafter, we will release our 3rd NFT for the newest Landshare property, LSCH. With this launch will also come a number of promotions and events designed to bring new users into the Landshare NFT ecosystem. With all 3 NFTs in possession, RWA Token holders can earn 40%+ APR in addition to the gains from rental yields and appreciation!

Dark mode for Landshare App

Dark mode has been a commonly requested feature and was passed via DAO proposal with an 81% vote. Accordingly, we will be launching this feature for the Landshare App early in the year.

App Improvements

Our recent Bug Bounty produced some excellent reports and feedback from the community. Our development team will be hard at work fixing existing bugs and making improvements to the Landshare App based on the feedback provided.

Multi-chain functionality for existing features

Bringing LAND and LSRWA to multiple chains is beneficial unto itself, but far less valuable if key features like staking, governance, and NFTs are not available on those other chains as well. As part of our cross-chain strategy, we will be working to ensure each of our core features has seamless cross chain interoperability, so whether you’re on BSC or another network, everything will work exactly the same.

Quarterly DAO Voting

The Landshare DAO has received several feature requests, and we want to create a streamlined way for LAND Holders to have a direct impact on the development roadmap. Starting at the end of Q1, the development team will assemble all feature requests from the DAO, as well as other ideas from the team or community, and create a single proposal which allows the community to vote for their top priorities.

Unlike a simple Yes/No proposal, the Quarterly DAO Vote will allow you to distribute your voting power across multiple options, based on how important you feel they are. The development team will then assess the results and use them to prioritize development resources, with the top vote-getters receiving special attention. This is a way for the community to provide direct feedback on our development roadmap and request new features for the platform, and a way for the development team to deliver on the community’s top concerns in a timely manner.

Last but not least, our 4th Core Priority is all about expanding and diversifying the real estate offerings for RWA Token holders. By expanding our selection, we not only reduce risk through diversification but also appeal to a wider range of potential investors.

To this point, we’ve focused on single family rentals and house flips. While we do intend to continue investing in these areas, we will be exploring several new options as well. By expanding our selection, we not only reduce risk through diversification but also appeal to a wider range of potential investors.

Some examples we’re exploring include short-term rentals, multi-unit properties, and mixed-use properties. The new RWA Token model also gives us the flexibility to try different strategies, including fix and hold projects or appreciation plays. Each type of investment comes with its own pros and cons, so we’ll continue to assess the market to find the best fit for our investors.

Closing Thoughts

As the RWA narrative captivates the crypto landscape, our sights are set on a new year marked by extraordinary growth. This roadmap serves as a launchpad for what lies ahead, and we invite you to join us at our Community Town Hall on December 29th at 12 PM CST, and be sure to submit your questions here. Your insights will help shape the future, so let’s unite and propel Landshare to new heights in 2024 — our biggest year yet!

Landshare Development Update–June 23rd, 2025

Brief update of Landshare development
By
logos

Landshare Team

The past few months have been an exciting and productive time for the Landshare ecosystem. From launching on a new blockchain network to expanding marketplace access, advancing our onboarding campaign, and continuing development on new features — we’ve been busy laying the foundation for the next phase of growth.

In this update, we’ll cover all the latest developments, including the Plume mainnet launch, our integration with Polytrade, ongoing progress with LSRWA Express and Lending Pools V2, and more. Let’s dive into what we’ve been building behind the scenes and what’s coming next!

Plume Network Mainnet

Earlier this June, we launched the LSRWA token on the Plume Network Mainnet — a major milestone for the Landshare ecosystem and a big step forward in our mission to bring real estate on-chain. We’re proud to be one of over 200 projects building on Plume and helping shape the future of RWA tokenization.

After 4+ years exclusively on BNB Chain, we’ve officially expanded, and investing in Landshare’s real estate pool is now more accessible than ever for Plume’s 3M+ community.

To celebrate, we kicked off the “Arriving at Plume” Zealy Event, where users competed for a 1,000 pUSD rewards pool and became the first to invest in LSRWA via Plume. The campaign brought in hundreds of new verified users, and we’re thrilled to continue growing our community on the first full-stack RWA Chain!

Partnership with Polytrade

Integrating with Plume Network has opened the door to 200+ ecosystem partners — and the first major step is already live: Landshare’s real estate properties are now listed on Polytrade, one of the top RWA marketplaces with access to 5,000+ real-world assets across 10+ chains.

With Landshare on Polytrade, anyone can invest in income-generating U.S. real estate and earn passive returns from both rental income and property appreciation — all in just a few clicks.

🔗 Start exploring: https://lnk.polytrade.finance/landshare

And that’s just the beginning — with more powerful integrations on the way to bring even more utility to the Landshare community. Stay tuned!

Onboarding Campaign

We’ve previously hinted at a major, ongoing onboarding campaign, and now it’s time to share more! This initiative is designed to level up our referral program and hit some big-picture goals:

  • Educate: Help users explore the Landshare ecosystem step-by-step
  • Activate: Drive engagement with core features like staking, LPs, and NFTs
  • Boost on-chain activity: Incentivize real usage, not just clicks
  • Retain: Reward users who stick around and stay active over time

To support this, we’re building a dedicated Onboarding Portal where users can track their progress, discover new tasks, and explore the ecosystem at their own pace. We’ll also add helpful hints and walkthroughs across key pages to guide new users naturally and drive interaction with our features.

While we don’t have a public launch date just yet, most of the campaign logic, the portal framework, and technical setup are already complete. We can’t wait to roll it out and bring more people into the Landshare journey!

LSRWA Express

LSRWA Express is a simplified, fully passive investment feature currently in development on the Landshare platform. It allows users to deposit USDC and earn real-world, asset-backed yield without the need to directly interact with LSRWA tokens, navigate secondary markets, or engage in DeFi mechanisms such as staking or liquidity farming.

We’ve previously published a detailed explanation of this feature, including how the epoch-based system works and the broader vision behind LSRWA Express. If you haven’t yet, you can explore the full documentation here: https://docs.landshare.io/platform-features/lsrwa-express

While there are no major updates to announce at this time, we want to assure the community that development is actively ongoing. Our technical team is focused on finalizing the backend infrastructure and preparing for internal testing. We’ll keep the community posted as we move closer to launch.

LSRWA Liquidity Updates

A core priority for the Landshare ecosystem is ensuring that LSRWA tokens can be traded at or near their true Net Asset Value (NAV). One of the most direct and effective ways to support this is by improving price stability on the DS Swap secondary market.

To address this, we’re introducing a strategic buyback mechanism: When DS Swap prices dip significantly below NAV, a portion of the rental income will be allocated toward buying back LSRWA tokens and removing them from circulation. This approach helps in two ways — it supports the market price while also acting as an anti-dilution mechanism, effectively increasing value for existing holders.

This system is designed to benefit the entire community, enhancing both liquidity and price integrity. We’ll continue to closely monitor LSRWA trading conditions and explore further improvements to ensure a healthy, accessible, and sustainable market for all participants.

Lending Pools V2 Coming Soon

We’ve seen a lot of anticipation around the launch of our updated lending pools, and we’re just as excited as you are. We know the wait has been long, building something secure, efficient, and impactful takes time. The new Pools V2, offering interest rates of up to 8%, will go live as soon as the Defactor team completes the migration to their updated protocol.

In the meantime, if you’re curious about what’s ahead, check out our latest article that dives deep into the power of combining tokenized real estate with cross-chain lending. Learn how this integration unlocks new capital, improves user flexibility, and enables yield opportunities across ecosystems:

EthCC Event in France

Connecting in person is a big part of building real relationships and growing any project — that’s why our CMO, Ivan Voznoi, is heading to EthCC in Cannes next week!

It’s shaping up to be a busy and exciting week, with Ivan planning to attend top-tier side events like the RWA Summit by Centrifuge, RWA Cannes by NFT Paris, Builders Night by MetaMask, and plenty more.

Wishing him a productive week full of new connections and opportunities. Time to bring tokenization to the Côte d’Azur! 🇫🇷💼🏝️

User Onboarding & Education

As Landshare continues to grow, one of our top priorities is ensuring that new users can navigate the ecosystem with clarity and confidence. While the Landshare platform offers a robust suite of features — from tokenized real estate and staking to liquidity pools and lending — we understand that the value we provide must be accessible and understandable from the very first interaction.

That’s why we’re focused on streamlining the onboarding experience across multiple fronts — including the upcoming LSRWA Express feature, a dedicated onboarding campaign, educational blog content, clearer communication strategies, and participation in Twitter Spaces to connect with the wider community.

We firmly believe that a smooth, intuitive onboarding experience is essential for long-term growth. Without it, even the most innovative products can remain underutilized or misunderstood. By lowering the entry barrier and offering ongoing education, we empower users to fully engage with the Landshare ecosystem — not just once, but for the long term.

Wrap Up

As we look ahead to the second half of 2025, our focus remains on delivering real value to our users and continuing to push the boundaries of what’s possible in RWA tokenization. Whether it’s simplifying onboarding, expanding to new ecosystems, or enhancing our DeFi tools — every update brings us closer to our long-term vision of making real estate investment accessible, transparent, and rewarding for everyone.

Thanks as always to our community for your continued support and feedback — we’re building this together. Stay tuned for more updates soon, and make sure to follow us on X (Twitter) and Telegram to be the first to know about what’s next!

90% of Commercial Real Estate Remains Illiquid; How Does Tokenization Change That?

Despite the massive value locked in commercial real estate, most of it is difficult to buy, sell, or trade quickly, making it highly illiquid.
By
logos

Landshare Team

Commercial real estate (CRE) is one of the world’s largest asset classes, with a value of over $120 trillion in 2025. However, almost 90% of this number remains illiquid. This means only a small fraction can be bought or sold quickly at fair value. 

This lack of liquidity has long frustrated investors, developers, and institutions, tying up capital in office towers, retail centers, and industrial parks for months or even years. This major problem haunting the real estate industry is now being strategically solved using tokenization. 

Tokenization has changed how CRE works by turning traditionally illiquid properties into tradable digital tokens. This simply means that you can fractionally invest in commercial properties by purchasing tokens that can be sold and bought just like shares. This leads to high liquidity and access for potential investors.  

So, let us analyze why CRE is so illiquid, how tokenization works, its benefits, and the best and safest tokenization platforms that you can check out. 

Why is 90% of Commercial Real Estate Illiquid?

Commercial real estate is usually considered to be very reliable and provides healthy returns despite larger market volatility. So, why is liquidity a big problem in this industry?  

So, traditionally, when you think of liquidity, you usually picture stocks or bonds you can buy or sell almost instantly. However, CRE transactions require complex legal documentation, approvals, huge funds, and often lengthy negotiations. A typical “quick” commercial deal can still take months to close.

Key Reasons Behind CRE Illiquidity:

High Capital Requirements: Purchasing even a small retail plaza or office building often requires millions of dollars of equity, plus layers of debt. Moreover, it is a known fact that interest rates for commercial mortgages are higher than residential ones. This also adds to the cost of investment. 

Complex Due Diligence: Investors must verify zoning, environmental reports, tenant leases, and conduct structural inspections. These are processes that routinely take weeks or months.

Limited Buyer Pool: The kind of capital required to invest in commercial real estate is enormous. Only certain investors have the expertise and resources to buy and manage CRE, further narrowing the market.

Regulatory Constraints: CRE sales are often governed by local, state, and federal regulations, adding layers of compliance and approval.

Because of these hindrances, owners often discount sale prices, and that too to attract a limited pool of buyers. Effectively, sellers bear extended holding periods, sometimes passing incur losses or minimal profits even when market conditions are favorable.

How Real Estate Tokenization Solves This Problem?

Firstly, let us understand what tokenization is:

Tokenization is the process of converting ownership rights or cash flows of a real-world asset into digital tokens on a blockchain. Each token represents a fraction of the asset’s value. For example, instead of buying a $5 million office building, you might purchase 1,000 blockchain tokens at $5,000 each. 

Here, each token entitles you to a proportional share of rental income, appreciation, and governance rights. This means that when you plan to sell, you do not need to look for a buyer who can purchase the entire property. You may sell any number of tokens you wish.  

Benefits of Commercial Real Estate Tokenization

Here are some distinct advantages that real estate tokenization offers exclusively:  

Fractional Ownership: Splitting a single property into many tokens lowers the entry barrier. Instead of millions, investments begin from amounts as low as $50.

Quick Process: Token trades occur on a blockchain marketplace. Once regulatory and KYC steps are in place, the ownership transfer happens almost instantaneously. So, no more waiting for months of manual paperwork and approvals.

Larger Buyer Pool: Tokenization ensures that global investors can participate in 24/7 trade. With fewer geographic or institutional constraints, tokenization dramatically increases the number of potential buyers.

Transparency and Security: Ownership records are immutably stored on a public or permissioned ledger, reducing the risk of disputes and simplifying due diligence.

Democratizes CRE Investments: Historically, CRE investing has been restricted to large institutions, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals. Tokenization lowers the minimum investment to as low as $50, inviting a much larger audience. Effectively, retail investors can now partially own office buildings, retail centers, or industrial warehouses.

Improved Liquidity and Property Prices: Tokenized CRE assets can trade on digital exchanges, often with real-time order books, allowing investors to buy or sell instantly, not months. This liquidity, in turn, adds to the asset's value and leads to better prices, reducing the risks involved in private CRE markets.

In short, tokenization makes CRE more organized and accessible, much like stocks or bonds, where trading can occur daily and investments can be made worldwide.

How Landshare Solves Illiquidity in Real Estate?

Landshare is one of the fastest-growing tokenization platforms, specializing in U.S. properties. Their platform allows investors to purchase fractional tokens (as little as $50 per token) representing property ownership.

Key Landshare features:

Fractional Tokens: Each token gets you a proportional share of a property or a portfolio of properties.

Automated Rent Distribution: Smart contracts automatically allocate rental income to token holders each month.

Liquidity: Landshare tokens trade 24/7 on blockchain-based decentralized exchanges and select centralized venues, providing continuous liquidity.

Secure and Transparent: Every property undergoes professional due diligence, inspection, and legal compliance before Landshare adds it to its property portfolio.

4 Properties Sold: Landshare has sold four US properties on the BSC chain. This shows that it is a platform that believes in action and growth, and not hype like some crypto tokens. 

Benefits for Investors

Low Entry Point: For just $50, even beginners can try their hand at real estate Investing.

Predictable Cash Flow: Monthly rental yields (8-12% range annually) are streamed directly to wallets.

Transparent Ownership: All token balances, transaction history, and asset performance data are available on-chain, ensuring transparency and trust.

Conclusion

So, as 90% of the commercial real estate remains illiquid, there is a massive market for tokenization to capture. It offers a more transparent, accessible, and affordable solution to a problem that has existed for a long time.

Lastly, for people who have always wanted to invest in commercial real estate but did not have the capital, tokenization opens that door for you!

$4 Trillion by 2035: Real Estate Might Not be Bought, But Could be Mined

By 2035, real estate could become a $4 trillion tokenized asset class, where properties aren’t just bought; they’re mined through blockchain, fractional ownership, and tokenization
By
logos

Landshare Team

Real estate investing is witnessing a change that claims to eliminate the problems associated with it. The change here is the digitization of assets, and leading this digital revolution is real estate tokenization. 

A recent Deloitte Center for Financial Services report shows that over $4 trillion of real estate is projected to be tokenized by 2035. The industry, which currently has a value of about $300 billion, is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 27%. 

For some context, the traditional global real estate market is expected to grow at a CAGR of about 2.69% from 2025 to 2029. Now, that’s a significant difference. So, what’s actually behind this growing demand for tokenized real estate? Mainly, ease of access. But wait, there’s more to it.

So, let's examine why asset tokenization is the next big thing in the investment market and how it solves common real estate problems. 

What is Real Estate Tokenization?

Real estate tokenization simply means converting properties into blockchain‐based “tokens” that can be traded like shares. This approach of fractional real estate investments lets you enjoy the stable gains of properties with amounts as low as $50. 

This allows individuals to try their hand in an industry once dominated by wealthy institutions. Additionally, it promises to fix long‑standing challenges like high fees, slow deal closing, and limited liquidity. How does it do it? Well, crypto networks make ownership records immutable and can eliminate middlemen, so trades settle faster and more cheaply.

In short, a vast new market is emerging: investors can effectively “mine” fractions of properties instead of buying an entire building and earn rental yields and capital gains.

But what are the reasons for these bullish projections about real estate tokenization? Also, is real estate even relevant in 2025? 

Real estate has long been regarded as the foundation of generational wealth, offering a finite, tangible asset that provides security, legacy, and outsized profits. The main reason for this is scarcity. You cannot print or produce more land. So, the demand almost always exceeds the supply, resulting in value appreciation over time. 

Moreover, real estate is a tangible asset. It is something you can touch and feel. This gives humans a financial and psychological sense of security. Also, owning a house has been the primary way for families to pass on wealth to their loved ones. Real estate is essentially a part of family legacies all over the world.

So, real estate stands out among tokenized assets in terms of demand, historical growth, and stability. 

This is just the beginning. Now that the European Union has passed the MiCA framework, investors have received more clarity regarding regulations and legality. As more retail investors and institutions join this gold rush, it will become one of the most sought-after assets in the modern world.       

Why is Tokenized Real Estate Considered a Top Investment in 2025?

Here are some key reasons why RWA tokenization is being considered the best asset class in 2025:

Institutional Adoption 

Major banks and asset managers are experimenting with blockchain-based real estate. Countries like Germany, France, and Luxembourg are updating frameworks to accommodate security tokens. 

Meanwhile, in the US, BlackRock's (the BUIDL fund) tokenized treasuries have already attracted hundreds of millions in investments, showcasing that traditional finance players are bullish on the future of asset tokenization. 

Furthermore, several other large institutions, like JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs, are also tokenizing assets at a large scale. This caters to their global vision, as anyone from any part of the world can invest, massively increasing the investment funds.    

Anyone Can Invest From Anywhere

As mentioned earlier in this article, the main benefit of real estate tokenization is the access it brings. On platforms like Landshare, a minimum investment of $50 is required to access real estate tokens. 

Historically, only affluent or local buyers could own real estate, but blockchain is changing that. Anyone with an internet connection can buy a piece of property anywhere. 

Moreover, liquidity is really important for the retail investor. In these volatile times, an asset’s ability to generate cash at a fair value is one of its most critical reliability parameters. Tokenization passes this test and has almost instant liquidity, unheard of in the traditional real estate market.   

Tokens can trade 24/7 on global platforms and enable instantaneous settlement. In practice, smart contracts automate many tasks. For example, a token sale might immediately issue ownership tokens and even stream rental payments to investors, all without paper deeds or escrow agents.

Why Landshare Stands Out as a Top Real Estate Tokenization Platform?

Landshare is a U.S.-based platform that tokenizes properties. It lets investors buy real estate-backed tokens that start at only $50. Each LSRWA token is a tiny share of the fund. 

So, investors simply buy and hold to earn passive income from properties. 

Landshare and similar services solve many traditional inefficiencies. They cut out brokers and slow paperwork by storing ownership on-chain

Moreover, rental profits normally flowing to a few owners are now shared automatically and instantly among many token holders. This also opens investing to people globally.

Key things to know about Landshare:

Minimal entry point: Investors can buy LSRWA tokens with as little as $50, dramatically lowering the barrier to entry.

Fractional ownership and dividends: Each token grants a proportional share of rental income. For example, holding 10% of a property’s tokens gives you 10% of its monthly rent.

Automated, trustless payouts: Smart contracts on the blockchain handle all ownership records and rent payments. This means instant, accurate distributions to token holders without any middlemen or fees.

Current Assets: Landshare currently operates four tokenized U.S. properties. Each token represents fractional ownership, offering investors 8–12% annual yields from rental income and appreciation. 

4 Properties Sold: Landshare has already sold four properties on Binance Smart Chain. 

This proves that Landshare is all about value and action. It is a futuristic project that generates sustainable demand by providing real-world value. 

These features showcase why Landshare positions itself as “democratizing” real estate. By making ownership transparent, liquid, and programmable, platforms like Landshare aim to tap into the massive U.S. home equity market for everyone. 

Conclusion

This is just the beginning. As regulators clarify rules and platforms mature, tokenized real estate is set to become a mainstream asset class. Deloitte’s forecast of $4 trillion by 2035 implies a compound growth in the tens of percent annually. This trajectory is only plausible if institutional capital flows in. At that scale, property tokens could blend with traditional portfolios. Moreover, tokenization naturally enjoys the asset class’s inherent benefits. So, in the case of real estate tokenization, stability is a big attraction for risk-averse investors. Lastly, with billions of dollars predicted to enter this space, the shift to digitally‐native real estate assets seems not just possible, but inevitable.

Landshare Roadmap: Q1-Q2 2024

As the year winds down, we’re immensely grateful to our dedicated community members, collaborators, partners, and everyone who has worked with us as pioneers in the RWA space. 2023 was a year to remember for Landshare, and we have even bigger ambitions for 2024!

In this article, we’re capping off 2023 by celebrating the year’s top achievements, outlining our core priorities going forward, and providing a detailed roadmap for the first half of 2024. Let’s dive in!

2023 Highlights

Tokenized House Flip

Early this year, we completed the first ever tokenized house flip, netting a 10%+ ROI in just a few months for our participants. In this process, we transformed a distressed property into something brand new, drastically increasing the property value. You can read about the renovation from start to finish in our Follow the Flip series.

Landshare DAO

This year also marked the launch of the Landshare DAO, which puts high-level decisions into the hands of LAND holders through a decentralized governance model. With this feature, LAND holders can control token emissions, staking rewards, treasury funds, and launch marketing initiatives autonomously.

To learn more about the Landshare DAO and how you can help shape the future of Landshare, be sure to check out our Deep Dive article and the Landshare Docs.

Real World Explorers

At the end of September, we launched an extensive community incentive program with a prize pool of 35,000 LAND tokens. During this period, we achieved 2.5 million impressions on social media, gained 1200 new token holders, received over 3000 registrations on the DS Dashboard, and welcomed several thousand new followers on X and Telegram community members.

This Friday, December 29th, we officially conclude the Zealy Sprint, marking the completion of the Real World Explorers program. The top 215 leaderboard participants will receive delightful New Year gifts from a 4,000 LAND prize pool.

We thank each explorer for their contributions and eagerly anticipate the opportunity to share what we have in store for the Landshare Shill Army.

Landshare RWA Token

To finish 2023 with a bang, we released our most ambitious update yet — the Landshare RWA Token!

With this new token, we’ve fundamentally reimagined our tokenization model, establishing a simple and secure way to gain exposure to real estate directly on-chain. Along with the new Token, we’ve introduced on-chain property valuations via Chainlink, new secondary trading market options, a UI/UX overhaul, and substantial improvements to the NFT ecosystem.

2024 Roadmap

With the final days of 2023 ticking away, we’re setting our sights on the agenda for the new year. We have established 4 Core Priorities for 2024, each of which will guide our decisions throughout the year. Our roadmap is built as an extension of these priorities, with each item serving to advance one or more of them.

  • Increased accessibility & integration: Making it easier to access Landshare’s core features; providing additional value through new partnerships and listings
  • Visibility & Community Engagement: Spreading the word about Landshare; leveraging the power of our community to assist in those efforts; creating opportunities for the community to provide direct and actionable feedback
  • Feature development & app improvements: Continuing to build upon and improve our existing features; developing new features which improve the usability and utility of the LAND and LSRWA Tokens
  • Property expansion & diversification: Seeking new opportunities in the real estate space, providing RWA Holders with a diversified and expanded property pool

Q1-Q2

  • New CEX listing
  • Cross-chain capabilities
  • Landshare Shill Army
  • RWA Token listing on DS Swap
  • Card payments for LAND and RWA Token
  • New property NFTs
  • Dark mode for Landshare App
  • App improvements and bug fixes

Year-long and Ongoing Updates

  • New Properties & Diversification
  • Quarterly DAO Voting for Development Roadmap
  • Regular Community Townhalls
  • Integrations and collaborations with other RWA projects

Over time, we have discovered that the most effective way to increase visibility and engagement with the platform is through grassroots, community driven programs and insightful write-ups from Key Opinion Leaders across multiple platforms. To this end, we’re crafting several new initiatives designed to increase visibility and leverage the power of community.

Landshare Shilling Army

As part of the Real-World Explorer program, we frequently conduct shilling quests where users share information about Landshare, thereby boosting awareness of our updates and events. While this approach has been effective, we recognized the need for a modernized version, and that’s exactly what we’ve achieved with the Shilling Army.

We’re now going beyond mere likes and retweets, delving into more meaningful engagement. We’ve created distinct categories for creatives, influencers, shillers, and a plethora of user-generated content that will be ready to launch in mid-January. More details about this campaign, including information on how to participate and fulfill requirements, will be shared tentatively on January 16. Stay tuned so you don’t miss out.

Key Opinion Leaders

As many influential voices in the crypto space focus in on the RWA narrative, it’s crucial to continue our work with Key Opinion leaders across the crypto space. We are focused on creators who craft well-researched, highly informative content which clearly highlights the benefits of our platform in a way that is accessible to a wide audience.

Landshare DAO Grants

Many of our community members may be familiar with the DAO Grant Program and content creation contests. In 2024, we’ll be doubling down our efforts, engaging community members and up-and-coming content creators to produce high-quality, insightful content across multiple domains.

Next up, we must ensure that the platform’s features are easily accessible and well-integrated with other projects. By breaking down barriers to entry and expanding integrations, we make it easier to get into Landshare and even improve the project’s visibility in the process.

New Exchange Listing

Although decentralized exchanges (DEXes) like Pancakeswap are a backbone of DeFi, many users prefer centralized exchanges as a way to buy and sell tokens. To make it easier for these users to get started with Landshare, we intend to list the LAND token on a new centralized exchange early in the year. This will not only allow us to reach more users, but also improve liquidity and opportunities for existing LAND holders.

Cross Chain Capabilities

As crypto moves to an increasingly multi-chain and cross-chain future, it’s imperative that our platform features are accessible through multiple chains. Cross-chain is one of our top priorities, and has been on the radar for a long time. With our latest platform updates as well as new advancements in cross-chain protocols, we have finally established a clear path towards a multi-chain Landshare ecosystem.

With cross-chain comes multiple benefits, including new partnership opportunities, wider access to platform features, and enhanced security. As one of our top priorities for H1 2024, we will continue to provide updates on the development of this feature, including a deep dive article in the coming weeks.

RWA Token Listing on DS Swap

After taking a major step forward with on-chain valuations [link] and fixed price liquidity for RWA Tokens, we will further expand secondary market options with a DS Swap listing for LSRWA. DS Swap will enable the exchange of LSRWA in an active secondary market, similar to Pancakeswap or Uniswap.

Card payment options

Funding a Web3 wallet like Metamask can be a major hurdle for DeFi newcomers. In order to smooth out the onboarding process, we intend to enable credit and debit card payment options for the LAND Token.

Our development will also be hard at work crafting new features and updates for the Landshare App. In addition to some new features yet to be announced, here are the top priorities for our development team entering in the new year.

NFT Migration & New NFTs

In the very near future, we will be completing the NFT migration process for existing NFT holders. With the new system, RWA Token Holders will be stack multiple NFTs for a single yield multiplier against their staked RWA Tokens.

Shortly thereafter, we will release our 3rd NFT for the newest Landshare property, LSCH. With this launch will also come a number of promotions and events designed to bring new users into the Landshare NFT ecosystem. With all 3 NFTs in possession, RWA Token holders can earn 40%+ APR in addition to the gains from rental yields and appreciation!

Dark mode for Landshare App

Dark mode has been a commonly requested feature and was passed via DAO proposal with an 81% vote. Accordingly, we will be launching this feature for the Landshare App early in the year.

App Improvements

Our recent Bug Bounty produced some excellent reports and feedback from the community. Our development team will be hard at work fixing existing bugs and making improvements to the Landshare App based on the feedback provided.

Multi-chain functionality for existing features

Bringing LAND and LSRWA to multiple chains is beneficial unto itself, but far less valuable if key features like staking, governance, and NFTs are not available on those other chains as well. As part of our cross-chain strategy, we will be working to ensure each of our core features has seamless cross chain interoperability, so whether you’re on BSC or another network, everything will work exactly the same.

Quarterly DAO Voting

The Landshare DAO has received several feature requests, and we want to create a streamlined way for LAND Holders to have a direct impact on the development roadmap. Starting at the end of Q1, the development team will assemble all feature requests from the DAO, as well as other ideas from the team or community, and create a single proposal which allows the community to vote for their top priorities.

Unlike a simple Yes/No proposal, the Quarterly DAO Vote will allow you to distribute your voting power across multiple options, based on how important you feel they are. The development team will then assess the results and use them to prioritize development resources, with the top vote-getters receiving special attention. This is a way for the community to provide direct feedback on our development roadmap and request new features for the platform, and a way for the development team to deliver on the community’s top concerns in a timely manner.

Last but not least, our 4th Core Priority is all about expanding and diversifying the real estate offerings for RWA Token holders. By expanding our selection, we not only reduce risk through diversification but also appeal to a wider range of potential investors.

To this point, we’ve focused on single family rentals and house flips. While we do intend to continue investing in these areas, we will be exploring several new options as well. By expanding our selection, we not only reduce risk through diversification but also appeal to a wider range of potential investors.

Some examples we’re exploring include short-term rentals, multi-unit properties, and mixed-use properties. The new RWA Token model also gives us the flexibility to try different strategies, including fix and hold projects or appreciation plays. Each type of investment comes with its own pros and cons, so we’ll continue to assess the market to find the best fit for our investors.

Closing Thoughts

As the RWA narrative captivates the crypto landscape, our sights are set on a new year marked by extraordinary growth. This roadmap serves as a launchpad for what lies ahead, and we invite you to join us at our Community Town Hall on December 29th at 12 PM CST, and be sure to submit your questions here. Your insights will help shape the future, so let’s unite and propel Landshare to new heights in 2024 — our biggest year yet!
