Tokenization of rental income

Justin Goodrich
Posted

I've been thinking about an idea and I wanted to post it on here to see if it would add value in any way. If there was a platform in which you could issue blockchain tokens (Ethereum, Cardano, Matic, etc), with basic functionality for distributing revenue to investors (cashflow split, time based payouts, and sale profit based on a personal stake in a project) programmed into it. would you use it as a means to raise capital for a real estate purchase? Do you think It would make it easier to raise money?

Zero chance I would be happy with losing 40% of my real estate investment last month because Bitcoin crashed. You certainly wouldn’t want to explain or reimburse your investors for that loss. Imagine you collected their money but had yet to close on a property then called and told them you needed 40% more. 

Until it fluctuates less than 0.01% per day (even that is probably too much at 3,65% per year) it is not useable as a currency. So if it’s still around 36k, you need at least 100 day trend of it not varying more than $4 per day.
