ETHZilla plans to tokenize 95 manufactured housing loans via Liquidity.io on an Ethereum Layer-2, aiming for 10% annual yields amid a strategic shift beyond core crypto holdings.
ETHZilla announced the purchase of a $4.7 million portfolio comprising 95 manufactured and modular home loans, secured by first-lien mortgages. The firm intends to tokenize these loans on an Ethereum Layer-2 network, with trading facilitated through Liquidity.io, a regulated broker-dealer. The loans are projected to yield about 10% annually. This move follows a sharp downturn in ETHZilla’s crypto asset value, a more than 90% drop in its stock price since August 2025, and the sale of over $110 million in ETH to fund buybacks and debt repayments. The firm is expanding its tokenization strategy to include diverse asset classes, also acquiring jet engines for similar treatment.
