Understanding the Difference Between Oceanpoint Marketplace Pools and Tokenized Real Estate Purchases

For the BST community, it’s crucial to understand that Blocksquare is a real estate tokenization infrastructure technology provider, offering several SaaS solutions to the industry. This intellectual property (IP) is what has been tokenized, forming the core of the DAO. The ecosystem for the BST token is Oceanpoint.fi, where multiple staking options are available.

Let’s focus on Marketplace Pools, also referred to as the RWA Launchpad, which directly impacts BST tokenomics and stabilization.

Key Differences Between Oceanpoint Marketplace Pools and Buying Tokenized Real Estate

1. Marketplace Pools (RWA Launchpad):

• These pools exist to support marketplace operators in getting their technology operational.

• Oceanpoint DAO members stake their BST tokens to vote for a marketplace operator, allowing them to receive a 100% discount on technology license expenses.

• In return, stakers are rewarded with additional BST tokens.

• If you’re already staking in the governance pool, you can re-stake your tokens here to demonstrate support and earn a boosted return.

• This support is crucial for expanding the protocol. More marketplace operators in more countries mean more property-backed tokens (BSPTs) for global investors to access.

Why is this important? Supporting marketplace operators via the launchpad ensures the growth of Blocksquare’s protocol and ecosystem, enabling more tokenized real estate offerings worldwide.

2. Purchasing Tokenized Real Estate:

• Once a marketplace is operational, operators can list properties and issue tokenized real estate offerings (BSPTs).
• Investors can purchase these tokens directly with stablecoins (e.g., DAI).
• Returns are based on the revenue generated by the properties and are typically paid out in stablecoins (currently DAI, though this could vary depending on the operator’s choice of stablecoin).

Future Potential: With more marketplaces in operation, there could be thousands of options for investors to choose from, across different countries and platforms.

Two Pathways for Marketplace Operators

1. Community DAO Support via Marketplace Pools:

Operators can leverage the DAO’s support to cover licensing costs entirely, with community members staking BST to back them.

• Benefit for the Community: Stakers receive rewards in BST tokens.
• Outcome: More tokenized real estate offerings supported by the protocol.

2. Self-Funded Licensing:

Operators can opt to pay for the licensing costs through a monthly subscription, bypassing DAO funding.

• Outcome for the Community: No staking rewards opportunity.
• Flexibility: Still results in tokenized properties for investors to purchase, but the barrior to adoption is higher and the start-ups must seek traditional funding first to cover tech costs.
