Blockchain, Cryptos & Real Estate
I'm by no means an expert in the blockchain and cryptocurrency world, BUT I'm very intrigued by the nature of it and how it can be such a polarizing topic when trying to understand its value and utility in the future.
I know some advocates of specific real estate coins have harped their utility as revolutionary. Companies such as Meridio - Meridio
and RealBlocks - RealBlocks do seem to have a unique space and value. Do you have any opinions on the emergence of blockchain technology within the real estate industry? Do you have any sources you've learned more about this topic?

Hi @Taylor L. you as a sponsor can do a completely compliant 506 B or 506 C and Reg A offering with a Security Token. After a 1 year lockup period the token is tradable by the investor and it can trade to a non-accredited investor. Working within US tax laws you can also open up your offerings to international investors. Blockchain, tokenization, security tokens and smart contracts will completely change real estate investing within the next 5 years.
