Crowdlitoken AG is a Swiss-based company specializing in the tokenization of real estate assets through blockchain technology.[1] The company offers an investment opportunity by allowing individuals to purchase fractional ownership of real estate properties across Europe using its digital tokens.[2][3]
History
The company was founded in 2018 by a consortium of Swiss investors.[4] A major milestone was reached in April 2019 when the Financial Market Authority of Liechtenstein approved the company's prospectus, enabling the initiation of its token sale in ten EEA countries.[5][6] Shortly thereafter, FINMA granted authorization for the sale of tokens in Switzerland, establishing a hard cap of US$205,810,000.[5][7][8] Crowdlitoken began building its European real estate portfolio by purchasing its first property, a logistics and commercial site in Oensingen, Switzerland, valued at CHF 9.15 million, with an annual rental income of approximately CHF 600,000 and a gross yield of 6.7%.[9] Under the leadership of CEO Dadvan Yousuf, the company further expanded its portfolio with the acquisition of a commercial property in Heimberg, Switzerland, valued at CHF 5.65 million, generating an annual rental income of around CHF 285,000 and a gross yield of over 5.1%.[10]
Business Model
Crowdlitoken operates by creating digital tokens that are directly linked to real estate assets.[11] Each token represents a fractional ownership in a specific property, allowing investors to benefit from rental income and potential capital appreciation.[12] Investors can choose which properties they wish to invest in, and the tokens can be traded on secondary markets.[13] The company's platform offers detailed information on each property, including expected returns, risk assessments, and legal documentation.[14]
Acquisition
In 2021, Dadvan Yousuf, a Swiss-Kurdish entrepreneur known for his ventures in the blockchain and real estate sectors, took over Crowdlitoken AG.[15] While specific financial details of the acquisition were not disclosed, it is estimated that Yousuf invested several million CHF to gain a controlling interest in the company.[16][17]
