October was one of our most productive months at Estate Protocol. We saw strong momentum across every part of the platform from new features and listings to consistent rent payouts and growing investor confidence.
In just a few months, we’ve turned an ambitious idea into a working platform with over $7 million in tokenized real estate on Arbitrum. These are real properties generating real rent, distributed on-chain in USDC to real investors around the world.
- And we’ve done it with no shortcuts
- No missed rent payments in 13 months
- Properties sourced from licensed real estate partners
- Instant, on-chain ownership
- Fractional access starting at just $250
This update goes deeper into everything we shipped, launched, and unlocked in October, from swap integrations to high-yield income properties and upcoming investor rewards.
Let’s dive in.
1. Swap any token into Real Estate with Bungee
One of the biggest friction points in DeFi today is onboarding, especially when moving value across chains or into new asset classes like tokenized real estate. In October, we solved a major part of that problem.
We integrated with Bungee Exchange, a powerful multichain swap aggregator that now allows you to convert any token on any supported chain directly into real estate on Arbitrum via Estate Protocol.
That means:
- No need to bridge manually
- No need to first convert to USDC
- No need to leave the DeFi ecosystem
You can start with ETH, ARB, OP, or any supported token and land directly into fractional ownership of a property.
Why this matters:
For most users, tokenized real estate has felt like a multi-step process. Swap. Bridge. Deposit. Buy. This integration reduces that to a single, seamless flow. It turns any DeFi token into a yield-bearing, real-world asset in a few clicks.
This is the first of many infrastructure integrations we’re building to make real estate investing as easy and accessible as buying any token.
2. 13 Months of Rent Paid Without a Single Miss
Since launch, Estate Protocol has paid out monthly USDC rent to token holders without missing a single payout.
October marked our 13th straight month of rent distribution. This is proof that tokenized real estate works, reliably and consistently.
Here’s what that looks like:
- 100 percent payout success across all listed properties
- Rental income delivered on-chain in USDC, directly to token holders’ wallets
- Transparency via blockchain so that all rent payments can be verified onchain
- No lock-ins, no delays, no surprises
Every month, our users earn real yield from real properties without needing to manage tenants, chase payments, or deal with paperwork.
Why this matters:
Crypto investors have been promised yield before but it often came with high risk, inflationary tokens, or opaque systems. At Estate Protocol, yield is simple. Rent comes from actual tenants. You get your share, automatically and in stablecoins.
Thirteen months of clean track record proves this model works and scales.
3. $7 Million in Tokenized Real Estate Value
October pushed Estate Protocol past a major milestone. Over $7 million worth of tokenized real estate now live on Arbitrum.
This represents more than 12 properties spanning residential, commercial, and short-term rental assets. Each one generates real yield distributed directly to investors in USDC.
What this milestone really means:
- Growing investor confidence: more users are choosing tokenized real estate as a reliable, onchain income source.
- Global accessibility: anyone can now invest in properties that were once limited to large buyers or local investors.
- Proof of scalability: the infrastructure we built can now support institutional-grade growth for future property pools.
Crossing $7M in total value locked is a signal that the RWA market is maturing. Real estate is no longer an abstract idea onchain. It’s a fully functional, income-generating asset class.
4. Tokenized a Luxury Airbnb Villa in the US
Until now, most tokenized real estate listings on Estate Protocol were focused on Dubai. In October, we expanded beyond the UAE for the first time with the launch of a luxury short-term rental property in Lizella, Georgia.
This is a fully furnished, high-end villa currently operating as a profitable Airbnb. The property is now tokenized and available for fractional ownership directly on Arbitrum.
Why this matters
This marks our entry into the US real estate market. Short-term rentals like this offer:
- Higher yield potential compared to traditional long-term rentals
- Flexibility in pricing based on demand and seasonality
- Access to a massive tourism and domestic travel market
By making this property available for fractional purchase, users can now diversify their real estate exposure across different geographies and tenant typeson the same platform.
This also proves the flexibility of our model. We can now bring income-generating properties from across the globe onchain, regardless of location or property type.
5. Boosted rewards for early investors coming soon
We’re rolling out a new rewards program designed specifically for our earliest supporters. If you’ve been investing through Estate Protocol, you may soon be eligible for boosted USDC rewards on every new investment you make.
Here’s what we’re planning:
- Extra USDC payouts on top of regular rent
- Eligibility-based selection for early adopters and active investors
- No lock-ins or special terms, just better returns for helping grow the ecosystem
This program is our way of saying thank you. While the real estate is already yielding 8 to 10 percent on average, this boost will allow selected investors to earn more simply by continuing what they’re already doing.
Why this matters
Tokenized real estate is an ecosystem. And ecosystems need early believers. With this new rewards model, we’re creating aligned incentives between protocol growth and investor upside. The more you invest, the more you benefit and not just in rental yield, but in protocol-level value creation.
The rewards system will go live in the coming weeks and is part of a broader push to reward onchain participation across the real estate lifecycle.
That’s all the updates from October 2025.
October proved that real estate onchain is reliable, scalable, and growing. November will build on that momentum with new ways to earn, invest, and unlock real-world value. Stay tuned.
