Porcupine Report #92: “Tokenized Real Estate” with Matt Whitlock

Matt Whitlock shares his journey from discovering libertarian ideas during the Ron Paul Revolution to ultimately moving to New Hampshire in 2010. He describes how the Free State community helped cultivate one of the earliest and most active Bitcoin ecosystems in the world, including the weekly Bitcoin meetups and his role in building one of the first prototype Bitcoin ATMs. Matt explains his involvement in the Save the Quill effort, where he helped secure the purchase of the original liberty clubhouse to keep it in community hands. He then introduces his latest project, Porcupine Properties, a tokenized real-estate investment company that uses blockchain technology to let people collectively invest in rental properties. Matt closes by emphasizing the importance of building parallel institutions so they’re ready when legacy systems inevitably fail.
