Blockchain, Bitcoin & Beyond: What It Means for Real Estate Investing | Jake & Gino Poadcast

In this episode of the Jake & Gino Show, we dive deep into the future of blockchain and real estate investing with Aly Madhavji — Managing Partner at Blockchain Founders Fund, UN consultant, author, and venture capital leader. Aly shares his journey from a refugee background to running a global VC fund with over 200 portfolio companies, while also breaking down how blockchain, crypto, and tokenized real estate could disrupt traditional finance and transform access to wealth creation. If you’re serious about real estate investing, technology, and building financial freedom, this conversation will expand your perspective.

From crypto adoption to tokenized real estate and venture capital strategies, Aly explains the opportunities and risks in today’s fast-moving digital economy. We cover the rise of decentralized finance, the potential of central bank digital currencies, how blockchain can streamline inefficiencies, and where real estate investing intersects with tokenization. Whether you’re an investor, entrepreneur, or simply curious about financial innovation, this episode highlights why blockchain is more than hype — it’s a shift with real-world impact.
