OWNITNOW CTO: "The Next Generation of Real Estate Investments is Here" | Let's Talk About Tech #75

In this episode of Let's Talk About Tech, recorded during Vienna Blockchain Week 2026, host Philipp Sakuler sits down with Hadil Krenn, CTO of Ownitnow, to explore how real estate moves on-chain, from the legal frameworks that make tokenization possible to the secondary markets that could finally make property liquid. They discuss why Own It Now tokenizes bonds and securities rather than the buildings themselves, what it takes to get a prospectus through the Financial Market Authority, and why tokenized assets stay illiquid without a functioning secondary market. Krenn also breaks down how an Austrian trustee law from 1874 represents token holders in the land register and shares a perspective on gold and money market fund tokenization, the euro stablecoin debate, and what Europe's tokenized real estate market could look like in five years.
