Moreover, Zand Digital Bank was appointed as the banking partner for the project’s pilot phase, positioning Dubai as the first city in the MENA region to adopt a licensed platform for real estate tokenization.
As per the land department’s press release, “The pilot phase of investment in tokenized real estate, marking the activation of the digital platform mint.prypco.com. The platform enables users to generate returns and own a share in a prime real estate project in Dubai.”
