GEORGE TOWN, Cayman Islands, June 17 — LandDAO, a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), announces the start of its pre-launch phase, introducing a new blockchain project designed to bring land non-fungible tokens (NFTs) backed by real-world assets (physical land) on-chain.
Unlike other blockchain real estate projects, LandDAO focuses solely on tokenizing physical land parcels — not virtual land or houses — giving crypto investors direct access to actual land holdings across the world.
LandDAO positions itself within the rapidly expanding real-world asset (RWA) tokenization market, expected to reach $16 trillion by 2030. Its goal is to reshape how land is accessed, owned, and traded using blockchain technology.
LandDAO’s model uses NFTs to represent real, physical land parcels, creating transparent, verifiable, and tradeable ownership on-chain. Each NFT is tied to a specific parcel, recording important details like location, legal status and asset history.
Imagine owning land in your portfolio by becoming a DAO member in LandDAO. Crypto traders can become members of LandDAO by buying the LandDAO token ($LNDAO) in the upcoming private and public token sales. The funds raised from the $LNDAO token sale are used mainly for the purchasing of lands. These lands are later issued as asset backed NFTs and made tradeable on RWA marketplaces.
Profits that LandDAO makes from the primary sale of lands are distributed to 65% to DAO members and 35% is kept for DAO treasury. Each DAO member has a pro-rata voting right based on the number of $LNDAO tokens owned. The DAO that runs the LandDAO project is governed by the $LNDAO token. LandDAO’s community governance structure combines on-chain automation through smart contracts with off-chain governance via a community discussion forum. This hybrid approach balances transparency, efficiency and flexibility.
The LandDAO team spent the past 18 months visiting Ghana, Namibia, Kenya, Uganda, South Africa, Portugal, Spain and Scotland to view potential lands and build relationships with landowners, key stakeholders, traditional rulers, land experts, and lawyers. Through these efforts, the team gained valuable insights into local land markets, legal frameworks, and the complexities of land ownership — all of which have been documented in the LandDAO whitepaper.
With these foundations in place, LandDAO is officially entering its pre-launch phase and has begun active outreach to the crypto and Web3 communities, engaging early supporters and strategic partners.
The organization has set clear fundraising goals, targeting $25 million through a $5 million seed round and a $20 million seed extension. These funds will support LandDAO 1.0 objectives, including initial land acquisitions, improvements, and governance setup, with pilot acquisitions planned to launch first in Portugal, Spain and Ghana.
The current Web3 space is dominated by projects focused on virtual assets, from digital collectibles to metaverse land. While these assets have driven innovation, they often lack real-world utility or lasting value. For example, some of the most high-profile NFT collections saw floor prices fall by over 90% between 2022 and 2024, revealing the volatility of assets not backed by anything tangible.
LandDAO takes a different approach by focusing on physical land — a finite, tangible asset with real-world significance. By tokenizing land on-chain, LandDAO brings transparency to ownership, expands access to international markets, and offers a direct way to hold real, verifiable land. In doing so, it connects blockchain to a real-world asset with lasting economic utility: physical land.
Early supporters, Web3 enthusiasts, and interested participants are invited to join the LandDAO whitelist for priority access to the upcoming LandDAO private and public token sales, community announcements and exclusive project updates.
