Blockchain in Real Estate: What Drives Adoption?

ChinaSat Jan 25 2025
Ever wondered what makes real estate professionals switch to blockchain technology? A recent study in China looked into this, surveying 311 buyers and sellers. They found that how useful and easy-to-use blockchain seems, plus concerns about data privacy, really matter. Also, if blockchain fits well with their tasks, it can make a big difference. The study used a method called PLS-SEM to crunch the data. It's like they took a snapshot of what's important when deciding to adopt blockchain. Plus, they found that if blockchain seems compatible with current tasks, it can make using it feel easier. This all adds up to a more efficient, secure, and cost-effective real estate market. It could even make custom agreements and title transfers smoother. So, if blockchain feels right and easy, and keeps data safe, real estate folks are more likely to embrace it.
