Propy is pleased to announce the appointment of two esteemed industry leaders, Michael Casey and Dr. Michael S. Piwowar, to its board. With deep expertise in blockchain technology, financial regulation, and public policy, their involvement will be instrumental in advancing Propy’s mission to revolutionize the real estate industry through cutting-edge technological innovation. Their insights and leadership will further strengthen Propy’s commitment to leveraging blockchain and decentralized solutions to create a more transparent, efficient, and secure property transaction ecosystem.
Michael Casey, a respected media veteran and blockchain pioneer, brings over three decades of experience in journalism and blockchain advocacy. Having served as Chief Content Officer at CoinDesk and as a senior advisor at MIT’s Digital Currency Initiative, Casey’s deep understanding of the blockchain ecosystem will be instrumental in advancing Propy’s vision. As he aptly put it,
On his appointment, Michael Casey stated:
“Propy mixes practical solutions to the inefficiencies of developed real estate markets with a higher-level purpose to defend people’s property rights around the world. In securing licenses in various U.S. states, providing rapid and secure settlements, and demonstrating the use of NFTs in transactions, Propy is establishing credibility and proving the viability of a blockchain model. Through irrefutable title records, Propy can help people in developing countries assert their rightful home ownership claims – something that Hernando de Soto has shown can have a profound impact on their lives. That’s the promise that first excited me about this technology a decade ago.”
Dr. Michael S. Piwowar, former SEC Commissioner and an expert in financial regulation, adds a wealth of knowledge in the intersection of finance, policy, and technology. His tenure at the SEC, coupled with his leadership roles at the Milken Institute and Georgetown University, positions him as a key figure in guiding Propy’s strategic growth and regulatory initiatives.
On his appointment, Dr. Michael S. Piwowar stated:
“I’m incredibly excited to be aligning with Propy as the real estate market presents an enormous opportunity for innovation. Real estate is a cornerstone of the global economy, and leveraging cutting-edge technologies like blockchain and AI are essential to overcoming the many challenges the industry faces. Propy is at the forefront of driving this transformation, and I look forward to helping unlock new possibilities that addresses housing affordability in the US and create value globally.”
Both Michael Casey and Dr. Piwowar will be featured speakers at Propy’s upcoming Web3 & Property Rights Summit. The event will bring together leading industry figures such as venture capitalist Tim Draper and Cathie Wood of ARK Invest to discuss the future of AI, property rights, decentralized finance (DeFi), and digital ownership in real estate.
Natalia Karayaneva, our founder and CEO expressed her excitement over the appointments:
“With Michael Casey’s and Dr. Michael S. Piwowar’s deep knowledge and industry expertise, Propy will grow further, faster, and better. Their guidance will help us bring transparency and liquidity to real estate, allowing more people from diverse backgrounds to own property and build wealth.”
At Propy, we’re continuing to disrupt the traditional real estate market by addressing inefficiencies like high transaction costs and long processes. Blockchain technology enables us to make property transactions more accessible, secure, and transparent. With Michael Casey and Dr. Piwowar now on board, we’re even better equipped to increase liquidity and democratize property ownership globally.
The PropyKeys platform has already minted over $10 billion worth of U.S. homes within its ecosystem, and we are on track to bring one million homes onchain by 2025. As a leader in modernizing real estate for the digital age, Propy is pushing the boundaries of innovation, and our new board members will help accelerate this transformation even further.
