Japanese real estate investment company Gates Inc. will tokenize a $75 million property in downtown Tokyo on the Oasys blockchain, marking one of the largest real estate tokenization projects in the country to date.
This collaboration was announced on Wednesday and is significant for both companies. Gates plans to eventually tokenize over $200 billion in assets—approximately 1% of the Japanese real estate market—while Oasys continues to expand from its gaming roots into the realm of real-world asset (RWA) tokenization.
Gates generated $145 million in revenue in 2024 and was listed in the Financial Times' "2023 Asia-Pacific High-Growth Companies" list, currently conducting a Nasdaq roadshow following the submission of its F-1 prospectus.
Gates CEO Yushi Sekino told Cointelegraph that the company has obtained the necessary financial and real estate business licenses in Japan. The RWA project will be executed through a special purpose vehicle (SPV) established overseas. "We are actively preparing to ensure full compliance with local regulations and obtain the necessary licenses in relevant jurisdictions through strong partnerships," he said.
Oasys founder and representative director Ryo Matsubara told Cointelegraph that the Oasys team is "building a token economy that automatically reinvests returns to maximize the compounding effect."
Both companies stated that they plan to expand the tokenization model to international markets, targeting the United States, Europe, the Philippines, and other regions in Asia. Over time, the initiative may also include the tokenization of Japanese intellectual property, such as gaming and anime assets.
In recent months, global interest in real estate tokenization has surged. In Dubai, tokenized real estate sales have reached $18 billion, while New Jersey has begun digitizing property deeds worth $240 billion.
According to a report released by Deloitte's Financial Services Center on April 26, 2025, the global tokenized real estate market is expected to exceed $4 trillion by 2035, a significant leap from less than $300 billion in 2024. This growth represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 27%.
Polygon Labs CEO Mark Boiron stated in a Cointelegraph interview on March 3 that tokenization is expected to revolutionize real estate investment. He emphasized that the real estate market needs to overcome liquidity issues that often lead to liquidity discounts, and tokenization could be key to increasing liquidity.
As tokenization accelerates, institutional investors are showing increasing interest in the field. On June 5, pan-European asset management company APS acquired tokenized real estate assets worth $3.4 million through the blockchain investment platform MetaWealth.
