LandDAO Launches Pre-Launch Phase for Real-World Land NFTs

LandDAO, a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), has announced the commencement of its pre-launch phase, introducing a blockchain project aimed at bringing land non-fungible tokens (NFTs) backed by real-world assets (physical land) on-chain. Unlike other blockchain real estate projects, LandDAO focuses exclusively on tokenizing physical land parcels, providing crypto investors with direct access to actual land holdings across the globe.

LandDAO operates within the rapidly expanding real-world asset (RWA) tokenization market, with the goal of transforming how land is accessed, owned, and traded using blockchain technology. The project uses NFTs to represent real, physical land parcels, creating transparent, verifiable, and tradeable ownership on-chain. Each NFT is linked to a specific parcel, recording crucial details such as location, legal status, and asset history.

Crypto traders can become members of LandDAO by purchasing the LandDAO token ($LNDAO) during the upcoming private and public token sales. The funds raised from the $LNDAO token sale are primarily used for purchasing lands, which are then issued as asset-backed NFTs and made tradeable on RWA marketplaces. Profits from the primary sale of lands are distributed, with 65% going to DAO members and 35% retained for the DAO treasury. Each DAO member has a pro-rata voting right based on the number of $LNDAO tokens owned. The DAO governing the LandDAO project is managed by the $LNDAO token, combining on-chain automation through smart contracts with off-chain governance via a community discussion forum.

Over the past 18 months, the LandDAO team has visited various regions, including 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. These efforts have provided valuable insights into local land markets, legal frameworks, and the complexities of land ownership, all of which are 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. 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.
