Propy at Token 2049

Token 2049 is one of the most electrifying gatherings in the crypto world, uniting visionaries, CEOs, and developers to explore the cutting-edge trends shaping the future. This month, some of Propy’s brightest minds took the stage in Singapore to share our vision for the future of real estate.

Our co-founder, Denitza Tyufekchieva, delivered a powerful keynote on “Onchain Real Estate,” captivating the audience with her forward-thinking insights on how blockchain is poised to revolutionize property transactions. Her message resonated deeply, inspiring attendees about the transformative potential of this technology in real estate.

Accompanying her were our Chief Strategy Officer, Erik LaPaglia, and VP of Finance and Operations, Nadia Mihova. Both had the extraordinary opportunity to engage with industry giants, including Ethereum’s creator, Vitalik Buterin, and Binance’s CEO, Richard Teng. Their conversations explored the future of real estate onchain, further solidifying Propy’s position as a leader in blockchain-powered property innovation.

This moment was not just a highlight for Propy, but a reflection of the exciting future ahead for real estate in the digital age.
