In a groundbreaking move, Blocksquare and Vera Capital have announced a $1 billion initiative to tokenize real estate across the United States. This partnership aims to bring commercial and multifamily properties on-chain, making institutional-grade real estate investments accessible to a global audience through blockchain technology.
The collaboration will see Vera Capital launch a dedicated digital marketplace powered by Blocksquare’s white-label technology. This platform will allow investors worldwide to own tokenized shares of premium U.S. properties. The first asset to be tokenized is a $5.4 million commercial property in Fort Lauderdale, offering a 5% annual return and significant redevelopment potential.
Denis Petrovcic, CEO of Blocksquare, highlighted the significance of this partnership: “Vera Capital’s $1 billion roadmap signals a major turning point for real estate tokenization in the United States. They’re going beyond just experimenting with blockchain — they’re deploying it at scale to unlock institutional-grade real estate for a global investor base.”
A rapid start
The partnership began with Vera Capital’s successful campaign on Blocksquare’s Oceanpoint RWA Marketplace Launchpad. In just one hour, the campaign secured over 100,000 staked $BST tokens from community supporters, far exceeding expectations. This milestone grants Vera Capital free access to Blocksquare’s marketplace technology stack, enabling them to scale their tokenized real estate operations. Stakers, in turn, benefit from token rewards, showcasing the growing demand for tokenized real estate in the U.S.

Vera Capital, a subsidiary of Vera Group, plans to tokenize dozens of properties across seven states in the coming weeks. With over $100 million in real estate assets already under management, Vera Group’s vertically integrated model—spanning brokerage, development, property management, and investment services—positions it as a leader in the tokenized real estate space.
Tokenization is transforming the $300 trillion global real estate market by breaking down traditional barriers to investment. Through blockchain technology, investors can enjoy greater transparency, liquidity, and lower minimum investment thresholds. This initiative by Blocksquare and Vera Capital is a significant step toward democratizing real estate investment, making it accessible to everyone, regardless of their financial background.
