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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
For more information about the RWA Token Update, be sure to check out the following resources:
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
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!

The RWA Token is a brand-new real estate token coming soon to the Landshare ecosystem. Backed by a variety of yield generating real estate assets, the RWA Token streamlines and simplifies investment for all types of users! With easy entry, healthy liquidity, and additional utilities, the RWA Token embodies what real estate on the blockchain should look like.
In this article, we will take a closer look at the tokenomics, utilities, and inner workings of this new system. If you’re new to Landshare or would like to learn more about the RWA Token as whole, please read our Feature Preview article for all of the details.
Upon launch of the RWA Token update, the Landshare ecosystem will feature two different tokens: the Landshare Token (LAND) and the Landshare RWA Token (LSRWA). Each token serves a different role in the ecosystem.
The LAND Token is the platform governance and utility token, serving as a means of exchange, voting, payment, and access. The RWA Token, on the other hand, is a real estate backed security token that represents the value of RWAs. They are separate but equally important components of Landshare.
In the coming sections, we will be covering the unique utilities of the Landshare RWA Token. To learn more about the platform utility token, LAND, please click here.
Each RWA Token represents a share of a pool of US-based real estate assets. This is made possible through tokenization, which is the process of converting real world assets (RWAs) into tokens on the blockchain. The value of each RWA Token grows proportionally with the value of underlying properties and the cash flow they produce, allowing investors to benefit by simply holding over time.
Unlike other cryptocurrencies, the RWA Token represents a legally binding share in the property holding company. This means that as an RWA holder, you are entitled to the same legal protections as an investor in a traditional company. This makes the RWA Token a simple and secure way to gain exposure to real estate directly on-chain.
Our goal with the RWA Token is to leverage the unique advantages of being an on-chain asset. This includes the ability to trade instantly and automatically with decentralized exchanges (DEXes), and to leverage your investment utilizing other systems, including borrow/lend protocols. In this way, the RWA Token is designed to work like any other DeFi asset.
The existing NFT ecosystem will transition from our existing Asset Token to the new RWA Token. Landshare NFTs allow you to stake RWA Tokens and earn LAND rewards by upgrading and maintaining your virtual property. These rewards stack with what you already earn from the RWAs themselves and are a great way to boost your returns. For more information on the NFT ecosystem, see here.
The Landshare RWA Token offers something for every crypto trader, even if they aren’t interested in real estate investment. Unlike USD stablecoins, the Landshare RWA Token is transparently backed 1:1 by RWAs and can grow in value over time. The asset-backed nature of RWA Tokens means they are not subject to the wild swings commonly seen in the crypto space. In this way, RWA Tokens offer an excellent safe haven for crypto investors.
The RWA Token is designed to maintain a relative peg with the underlying real estate assets it represents. Each RWA Token represents a share of the pool of underlying properties, which also includes the rental income they produce. A simple calculation is used to determine the value of each RWA Token:
RWA Token Value = (Total Property Value + Total Cash Reserves) / Circulating RWA Token Supply
The RWA Token can be bought or sold on the Landshare platform for its underlying value based on the calculation above. This ensures adherence to the value of underlying assets and price stability in secondary markets such as DEX trading.
Now that we understand how the RWA Token’s value is determined, let’s break down each component of the calculation.
The value of properties is estimated using Corelogic AVM, which utilizes real estate information such as comparable sales, property characteristics, and price trends to provide a current estimate of market value for a specific property. Corelogic AVM is widely used in the real estate industry to estimate the value of properties, including by clients like Realtor.com.
The estimated values of each property are added together and automatically brought on-chain via Chainlink Any API and Chainlink Automation. This allows our smart contracts to store the latest price of the properties at all times.
In addition to property values, the RWA Token will benefit from the rental income generated by properties. Cash reserves may include USD in a bank account or stablecoins on-chain. Similar to property values, every time the cash reserves change, the updated total will be stored on-chain.
Combining total cash reserves and total property value determines the total underlying RWA in the pool, so the final step of the calculation is to determine the value of each individual token.
The circulating RWA supply will include all tokens sold to investors. This total does not include unsold tokens from the offering. As tokens are sold from the offering, circulating supply will increase. Meanwhile, the proceeds enter the cash reserves, maintaining equilibrium as supply expands. In some cases, circulating supply may be reduced through redemption events.
A real estate-backed token should look and feel just like any other token on the blockchain. We’ve designed the RWA Token with that in mind — focusing on ease of use, DeFi integration, healthy liquidity, and additional utilities.
The RWA Token will also boost the utility of our existing LAND utility token. Each token serves a complimentary function in the Landshare ecosystem, and both are equally crucial to the functioning of our platform. To read more about the interaction between LAND and the RWA Token, check out our previous Development Update.
We expect to determine a launch window very soon. In the meantime, you can look forward to upcoming events and campaigns to help get the word out about the RWA Token! If you haven’t already, be sure to check out our Feature Preview article for more information on the RWA Token.

Last Thursday, our CEO Jordan Friske sat down with Justin Banon from Boson Protocol for a thoughtful AMA session about both projects as well as the past, present, and future of RWAs. The full recording of the space is available to listen to here.
If you’re unable to catch the full AMA, don’t worry — we’ve got you covered! In this article, we’ll summarize some of the biggest takeaways for the Landshare community from the session, including our strategy for healthier liquidity, multichain, the RWA Token launch window, and a look ahead to some of our plans for 2024.
Let’s dive in!
Liquidity is a top priority for the RWA Token update, since it’s one of the biggest drawbacks to traditional real estate investment. During the AMA, Jordan highlighted our desire to provide a truly liquid form of real estate investment, where investors can buy and sell for the full value of the underlying assets.
This goal has proven difficult to achieve, with many real estate projects acting as centralized market makers, creating illiquid DEX pools, or relying on entirely off-chain solutions.
To address the problem at its core, we’ve adopted a 3-pronged strategy:
You can read more about the liquidity model for the RWA Token here.
Multichain is another highly discussed topic, and one of our top priorities as we move forward into next year. Throughout the session, Jordan emphasized the importance of integrating RWA Tokens to leverage DeFi capabilities currently applied to traditional tokens. This involves utilizing decentralized exchanges, lending protocols, and the necessity for multichain capabilities to actualize this vision.
Furthermore, the implementation of multichain capabilities enhances our ability to engage with new users, as part of our broader strategy to amplify the visibility, exposure, and accessibility of Landshare.
When considering new chains to expand into, the following criteria are considered primarily important:
Based on these criteria, in addition to community feedback, we are eyeing Polygon as the first cross-chain network for Landshare.
The RWA Token launch is the essential first step towards realizing the objectives we’ve outlined during the AMA session and in our previous updates — DeFi integrations, healthy liquidity, and efficient scaling. With the RWA Token also comes improvements to every other aspect of the ecosystem, including new LAND Token utilities, a refreshed UI/UX, additional quality of life features, and much more.
After months of work, we are wrapping up the integrations and campaigns we’ve prepared for this update and are on track for a Q4 launch. The community can expect more details on the rollout of this new feature, including the migration timeline for existing Asset Token and NFT holders, followed by a full update launch. In the meantime, be sure to check out our Feature Preview article for a deep dive on our most ambitious update yet!
To wrap up the AMA, Jordan provided some insights into the project’s future plans. We are still finalizing the roadmap for 2024 and plan to put out a detailed post toward the end of the year. In the meantime, a few of our priorities were provided during the session:
With the new feature launch, there is no better time to start expanding the visibility and access to the Landshare ecosystem! These are just a few of the avenues the team is exploring:
In terms of property development, we have two main goals: expansion and diversification.
To this point, the focus has been on single family rentals and house flips. In addition to a brand-new property debuting with the RWA Token, the team is currently assessing new types of property investments, including short term rentals like Airbnbs and multi-unit properties.
Although the RWA Token update is comprehensive, our work doesn’t stop when it goes live! We will continue to improve on our existing features, including by adding the LAND Holder tracker recently proposed by the DAO. We’ll also be focused on further streamlining the RWA investment process, including by adding the option for credit/debit card payments. And of course, we’ll be adding new features and integrations to improve the utility of both LAND and the RWA Token.
These are just a few of our priorities — you can expect a much more comprehensive update toward the end of the year!
