BlockChain pour l’immobilier : le début du commencement ?

Depuis deux ans, on annonce que la BlockChain va impacter, voir transformer, les transactions immobilières, mais rien de concret n’était présenté jusqu'ici. Un article publié dans The Paypers annonce qu’une Startup américaine met en place sa solution pour gérer le cadastre au Brésil et en Suède. A suivre avec intérêt !

"Ubitquity, a Delaware-based blockchain startup, has teamed up with the Brazilian Real Estate registry to deploy blockchain tech for land registry in two Brazilian municipalities. The pilot program is an effort to move away from paper-based records toward a 100% computer-based solution. The startup recordkeeping system will embed hashes of detailed information like property address, owner, parcel number and zoning classification into the blockchain using the Colored Coins protocol. Ubitquity has been given an exclusive contract by the Cartorio de Registro de Imoveis (Real Estate registry) to provide the registration services. If the pilot is successful, the startup plans to franchise its software to other municipalities interested in migrating records on the blockchain. According to CoinDesk, a similar land registry initiative is being pursued in Sweden where the Lantmäterie land registry authority is partnering with blockchain startup ChromaWay to record property deals on a distributed ledger."
