BlocHome offers alternative approach to home ownership

An innovative start-up in Luxembourg is looking to democratise housing markets by tokenising homes. Leveraging the blockchain, BlocHome lets its clients partially own the home they live in. On the part they do not own they pay rent. “The more you are owner, the less rent you have to pay.”
