Dubai’s real estate sector has taken a major step forward with the launch of phase two of its Real Estate Tokenization Project. The new phase will start on February 20, 2026, building on a successful pilot introduces controlled secondary market trading for tokenized properties.
The project is powered by the Dubai Land Department (DLD) and implemented with infrastructure from Ctrl Alt. During phase one, ten properties were tokenized, representing a total value of over $5 million (AED 18.5 million).
Approximately 7.8 million tokens issued in the pilot are now eligible for secondary market trading. This expansion allows investors to buy and sell real estate tokens while maintaining transparency and compliance with existing land regulations.

Monitored live trading on the secondary market
Phase two focuses on operational readiness and market efficiency. The secondary market is regulated to protect investors and ensure the integrity of transactions. All transactions take place on a platform integrated with DLD systems, aligning digital ownership data with official title deeds.
Trades take place on the XRP Ledger (XRPL) while Ripple Custody protects all assets. Ctrl Alt’s tokenization engine monitors transactions and ensures that there is one continuous and immutable proof of ownership. In this way, all secondary market transactions remain fully compliant with Dubai’s legal and regulatory environment.
Additionally, Ctrl distributes Alt Asset-Referenced Virtual Asset (ARVA) management tokens to enable regulated transfers on the secondary market. On the blockchain, ownership and control tokens coexist to provide a seamless and transparent trail of ownership ownership.
Dubai sets global benchmark
Dubai is positioning itself as a global leader in innovation within the real estate sector. With a combination of government support, clear regulations and advanced tokenization infrastructure, Dubai is showing how digital assets can disrupt the concept of real estate ownership. Investors now have easier access to fractionalized real estate and market transactions remain open, transparent and secure.
Phase Two is more than just an upgrade. It demonstrates the power of tokenized assets to unlock liquidity, open participation and disrupt traditional real estate markets. The project demonstrates Dubai’s commitment to integrating blockchain technology into real asset markets.
Why this matters
It expands the list of people who can enter the Dubai real estate market, encouraging both individuals and institutions to participate in markets that were previously difficult to access.
It adds liquidity to previously tied up properties, making way for a smoother transfer process and more immediate investment opportunities.
