In a landmark step toward the convergence of real-world assets (RWA) and blockchain infrastructure, Joint City Investments Limited (中城投资有限公司), a Hong Kong–registered private equity firm, has announced a USD 1 million strategic investment into Guoyu RWA, further accelerating the digitization of traditional real estate assets.

Joint City Investments, fully owned by Legend Luck Holdings Limited, is a heavyweight in entrusted asset management, with a portfolio valued at over RMB 170 billion (approx. USD 23 billion) as of 2022. The firm specializes in initiating and managing private real estate funds, focusing on institutional and high-net-worth investors across Asia.

Bridging Real Estate and Blockchain: Solving the Illiquidity Challenge

The move signals Joint City Investments’ proactive entry into the RWA sector — a transformative effort to address the liquidity bottleneck long associated with real estate assets. Through the partnership, the company plans to tokenize its core-managed commercial properties and industrial parks, converting them into compliant, blockchain-based financial instruments.

By integrating Guoyu RWA’s technology, Joint City Investments will explore fractional ownership models, where large-scale real estate assets are divided into standardized digital tokens. Each token represents a verified share of ownership and entitles the holder to corresponding income rights and dividends.

This initiative draws inspiration from successful overseas examples such as the U.S.-based RealT project, aiming to make premium real estate investments accessible to smaller investors — thus lowering entry barriers while enhancing asset liquidity.

Technology-Driven Compliance: Guoyu RWA’s Blockchain Foundation

Under this strategic collaboration, Guoyu RWA will provide the technical and compliance framework for tokenization, backed by its globally recognized RWA incubation platform. The integration will establish a secure end-to-end process covering asset registration, on-chain certification, and automated profit distribution.

Guoyu’s blockchain architecture ensures that all property ownership data, rental income, and asset flows are immutable and transparent, supported by smart contracts that enable automatic rent settlements and dividend payouts.

This technical synergy not only enhances transparency and trust but also leverages Guoyu’s cross-border regulatory credentials, enabling the tokenized assets to attract global capital and unlock new liquidity channels for real estate-backed investments.

Transforming Real Estate Investment Logic

Joint City Investments’ entry into the RWA domain marks a pivotal evolution for institutional-grade real estate management. The collaboration with Guoyu RWA is expected to bring three major breakthroughs:

1. Democratization of investment access — allowing fractional ownership of multi-million-dollar properties.
2. Increased asset turnover — through blockchain-based peer-to-peer trading and liquidity pools.
3. Enhanced investor confidence — via transparent, tamper-proof on-chain asset verification and automated reporting.

As a leader in asset management, Joint City Investments is not only advancing its own digital transformation but also setting a precedent for how traditional real estate funds can evolve into blockchain-native financial ecosystems.

Toward a Global RWA Future

The partnership between Joint City Investments and Guoyu RWA reflects a shared vision — to bridge tangible assets with the digital financial economy. By tokenizing real estate, the collaboration paves the way for institutional-grade, compliant RWA markets, where asset-backed tokens can circulate globally with full legal and financial credibility.

This milestone signifies more than an investment; it represents the convergence of capital, technology, and regulation, creating a sustainable model for the future of digital real estate finance.
