CurveBlock, a UK-based proptech start-up pioneering sustainable real estate investment, has secured a $400,000 grant (approximately £298,000 GBP) from Kadena, a leading Proof-of-Work L1 blockchain, as part of its $25 million RWA grant program. Launched earlier this year alongside Kadena’s RWA Token Standard, this grant program is dedicated to accelerating the adoption of compliant asset tokenization on Kadena’s blockchain infrastructure.

Founded in 2018 by Gary Woodhead, Joey Jones and Matthew Couch, CurveBlock is on a mission to reshape the future of real estate by financing and developing carbon-zero, energy-positive homes—properties that generate more energy than they consume—championing the UK’s net-zero ambitions. The company’s innovative model is working towards promoting greater financial inclusion by giving everyday people access to real estate development digital shares, making this asset class more accessible to the public.

Kadena’s grant will enable CurveBlock to scale its digital platform and launch its blockchain-powered real estate investment offering to everyday investors after first testing the model with professional and institutional investors under the FCA and Bank of England’s supervision in the UK’s Digital Securities Sandbox. This innovative initiative supports the company’s broader goal of democratising access to green property developments and ultimately pioneering energy independence. As part of this partnership, CurveBlock will harness Kadena’s cutting-edge, secure blockchain infrastructure to offer tokenized real estate development shares, enhancing transparency, operational efficiency, and accessibility for all participants.

“We’re excited to partner with Kadena and take the next step in building a more inclusive, sustainable real estate market,” said Joey Jones. “This investment allows us to leverage world-class blockchain technology to in time give everyday investors access to the kinds of opportunities that were once only available to institutions, while driving forward our mission to tackle energy poverty and housing inequality.”

This strategic collaboration highlights Kadena’s commitment to bridging traditional finance with the many groundbreaking applications of blockchain technology for real-world use cases. Kadena’s RWA Grant Program and token standard are accelerating the adoption of compliant asset tokenisation across various sectors, including real estate, private credit, and alternative investments. 

“Kadena was created to bridge the transformative potential of blockchain with the reliability of traditional finance systems,” said Annelise Osborne, Chief Business Officer of Kadena. “Our RWA Grant Program and token standard are essential components of this vision, enabling compliant and scalable tokenisation while paving the way for widespread adoption. Tokenization is set to transform financial systems, bringing greater efficiency, transparency, and security to global markets. This grant program is one of many ways Kadena is enabling the transformation.”

In addition to its partnership with Kadena, CurveBlock also became the latest firm to be officially welcomed into the UK’s Digital Securities Sandbox (DSS) last month—a joint initiative led by the Bank of England and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to provide a safe, structured environment for firms to trial innovative models in digital finance. CurveBlock is the first company with a focus on tokenized real estate development funds to join the UK’s DSS, a pivotal moment for tokenized real estate. A recent study published by Deloitte projected the tokenized real estate market to grow to $4 trillion by 2035 globally. Curveblock also plans to launch a Series A funding round in the coming months to support its next phase of growth.

CurveBlock’s long-term goal is to create a regulated platform where individuals can invest in green housing developments from as little as £10. Alongside financial returns, CurveBlock reinvests 5% of its profits into supporting homelessness initiatives in the communities where it builds. This partnership marks a major milestone in the convergence of blockchain and real estate, unlocking access, boosting sustainability, and transforming how people invest in property.

CurveBlock investors are automatically enrolled in all developments built and sold through the platform, with profits shared equally between CurveBlock and its investors. Digital asset wallets remain active indefinitely, even once they return to profit, offering a smarter, fairer way to invest and grow your wealth.
