Eric Trump said he is working on a tokenized real-estate plan through World Liberty Financial. In an interview teased by CoinDesk TV and picked up by Yahoo Finance, he said the first step may involve one flagship building now under development, with public access through blockchain. Yahoo Finance report update shows growing interest as WLFI expands its products and reach.
CoinDesk publish interview note that Trump is considering fractional ownership using WLFI rails and USD1 stablecoin for payments and settlement. Earlier this year, Reuters report trading that WLFI tokens became tradable, marking a new stage for the project and drawing attention from both crypto firms and traditional investors.
“We are working on it as it pertains to one specific building that I’m doing right now,” said Eric Trump, co-founder of World Liberty Financial. “I think it’s going to be absolutely incredible.” He added that the goal is to open access to more people, not only large funds.
Tokenization means turning property rights into digital tokens on a blockchain. People can buy small parts of a building. Owners can raise funds without selling everything. But terms must be clear: what income is paid, if there is voting, how redemptions work, and how tokens can be traded. Simple rules and strong custody are key for trust.
The Trump family and partners launched WLFI in 2024 with a governance token and a dollar-pegged stablecoin called USD1. Since then, the team has discussed tokenizing different real assets. Market interest has risen as more banks and funds test on-chain finance. A real-estate pilot would be a major step, because property deals are complex and cross many legal areas.
If a pilot goes ahead, the structure will matter. The issuer may use a special-purpose vehicle, and investors will likely go through checks before buying tokens. Clear disclosures, audits, and simple user flows can help bring first-time buyers into the market. For now, all eyes are on which building will be chosen and how WLFI designs investor rights.
