On February 5, ETHZilla — formerly the 9th-largest Ethereum Decentralized Autonomous Treasury (DAT) firm — announced a pivot to real estate tokenization. The company has acquired $4.7 million in loans tied to 95 prefabricated and modular homes, with plans to tokenize these assets on an Ethereum Layer 2 network. The loans are secured by first-lien mortgages and carry an expected annual yield of ~10%, which will be converted into cash flow. ETHZilla’s shift comes amid a sharp drop in its Ethereum holdings: its stock has plummeted more than 90% from its August 2025 peak of $107, and the firm sold over $110 million worth of Ethereum last year for buybacks and debt repayment.
