By contributing its technology, ecosystem experience, and institutional partnerships, Polytrade will help architect, build, and scale Integra’s Asset-Specific Layer 1, designed for the global real-estate market.

Since 2021, Polytrade has operated at the forefront of real-world asset tokenization. The company has built one of the most active RWA ecosystems in the industry, integrating issuers, liquidity providers, secondary market participants, global distributors, and enterprise partners. This on-ground experience revealed a structural gap: traditional blockchains were not designed to support the data, compliance, valuation, settlement, and identity layers that institutional real-estate markets require.

Over the past five years, Polytrade’s institutional division has worked across banks, funds, and enterprises on private-chain and regulated RWA deployments. This work includes long-standing engagements with international partners, payment networks, enterprises, and tokenization companies across multiple jurisdictions. The insight gained from these projects shaped Polytrade’s conviction that RWAs needed a chain engineered around the realities of regulated assets.

Integra provides this foundation.

As a purpose-built chain for real estate, Integra introduces a vertically integrated environment where asset information, ownership records, compliance proofs, data feeds, liquidity flows, and market applications are natively embedded. This architecture aligns directly with the requirements of issuers, institutional capital, regulators, and global RWA participants. Integra is building a full-stack Asset Specific L1, whereby the Foundation will build the blockchain, but also native applications and a native stablecoin.

The consortium of anchors also includes leading real estate asset managers such as Nitya Capital, builders such as BNW Developments, and other technology companies such as Digishares. Having these asset managers and tokenization leaders allows Integra to seed a flourishing business from the start. Given its ambition with a native stablecoin as well as native DApps, Integra stands to capture value not just by gas or transaction fees as other L1s do, but also by yield on the stablecoin and native DApps fees. By bringing on-chain the movement of hundreds of millions in rents, exits, and sales from just its consortium members, Integra is well-positioned to become a new, value-generating L1, potentially sparking the growth of Asset-Specific L1s.

By joining the Consortium, Polytrade will lead technical development across the chain and its core infrastructure, support ecosystem expansion, and contribute to onboarding institutional partners and asset flows. With a pre-existing distribution network and a tested RWA marketplace, Polytrade brings an operational advantage that accelerates Integra’s path to adoption.

As a gesture to its long-standing community, Polytrade confirmed that $TRADE holders will receive an allocation of Integra’s native token, $IRL.

Final allocation details will be shared once the Foundation concludes its allocation process.

Commenting on the announcement, the Polytrade team noted that this next chapter represents the natural extension of the company’s mission: to bridge traditional assets with blockchain environments purpose-built to support them.

Polytrade will continue to operate its marketplace and institutional services under the broader Integra umbrella while contributing engineering leadership, ecosystem development, and industry expertise to the chain.

The company emphasized that this partnership reflects a long-term ambition to transform how real-estate markets operate globally, with Integra serving as the dedicated infrastructure for that transformation.
