 The tokenization of real-world assets has been tipped as a major use case of blockchain technology that could drive Web3 adoption. In episode 35 of Cointelegraph’s&nbsp;Hashing It Out podcast,&nbsp;host Elisha Owusu Akyaw interviews Sanjay Raghavan, vice <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="president" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/president.html">president</a> of Web3 Initiatives at Roofstock onChain, about tokenized real <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="estate" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/estate.html">estate</a> on the blockchain and how digital real <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="estate" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/estate.html">estate</a> investing interacts with the nonfungible tokens market and the decentralized finance landscape. Raghavan also talks about fractional nonfungible tokens (NFTs), regulations and the risks related to Web3 real <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="estate" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/estate.html">estate</a> platforms.
 Raghavan <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="explains" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/explains.html">explains</a> how real <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="estate" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/estate.html">estate</a> is sold on the blockchain using NFTs. Companies that sell real <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="estate" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/estate.html">estate</a> on-chain must first purchase the property and create a limited liability company (LLC). An NFT is then created, which is associated with the ownership of the LLC. When users buy the NFT, they buy the LLC, which means they have purchased the property.
 Raghavan tells Hashing It Out that regulations for tokenizing real-world assets can be complex. In the United States, for instance, various states have rules on the sale of assets, meaning that com navigate separate compliance requirements across 50 jurisdictions.

 Beyond bringing people from the traditional real <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="estate" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/estate.html">estate</a> market to Web3, Raghavan believes that crypto natives may see real <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="estate" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/estate.html">estate</a> tokenization as a diversification tool. He <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="explains" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/explains.html">explains</a> that most investment alternatives in the industry may be highly correlated to the Bitcoin (BTC) price, and having another stable and less correlated asset could be a reason for exposure to real <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="estate" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/estate.html">estate</a> NFTs.
 Raghavan also talks about the fractionalization of assets, including NFTs, which may require running a securities program that makes it unattractive for companies working in the United States. On the other hand, non-U.S. citizens may be able to access fractional NFTs in the future if firms outside the jurisdiction buy properties and sell the NFTs in other markets.
