The internet already made you a global citizen. At 2pm, you can watch Lamine Yamal play in Spain. A minute later, you open Instagram and see eight new posts from Paris, Lisbon, Peru, and one guy from high school who is apparently reselling sneakers in Dubai now. He lives in Dubai now? Your world is already bigger than wherever you happen to live.
Life hasn’t caught up. You could know people everywhere, meet them anywhere, and build durable relationships across the planet. The richest people already do. But that kind of freedom is still treated like a luxury. For everyone else, the options are basically the same as your grandparents’: stay frozen in one place, rent someone else’s life one Airbnb at a time (and pay a random $200 cleaning fee), or buy homes that tend to sit empty most of the year. The internet globalized your life. Unless you’re one of the big dogs, your physical life is still the same day-to-day routine in the same place.
I don’t think it will stay that way. As a software engineer, I’m bullish on what AI and autonomy will do to work in the 2030s. It’ll take up less of our lives, untether more of us from a fixed, boring workplace, and give us freedom to decide where—and around whom—we spend our time. Simply, it makes more kinds of lives possible.
Bases are a new primitive. A Base is a professionally operated residential asset, underwritten for both long-term appreciation and recurring use. A real home worth returning to—not another rental you forget when you leave.
We group them into Pools. A Pool is a curated network of Bases with shared ownership, access, and operations. We plan to work with the biggest names in real estate and hospitality to bring Pools to life around the world.
WORLD I
CAPITAL UNITS / INVESTMENT IN THE POOL
50 INVESTORS / 1000 CAPITAL UNITS / 8 HOMES
3062 BASE CREDITS / USE THEM FOR STAYS
Think about it this way.
Today, buying a home means tying your money and your life to one address. A Pool changes that. Your ownership takes the form of Capital Units—investment interests with economic exposure to the Pool—while Base Credits are separate rights to stay in its homes as your life moves. Whether either can be transferred depends on the Pool’s terms and applicable law. You’re not buying the second week of June in Lisbon or bedroom three in Tokyo. Your 150 Base Credits buy you ~40 nights across the Mediterranean for a $200K investment (designed to appreciate over time, by the way).
Timothy’s Base PassportAn open passport with a globe seal and four house stamps represents Timothy’s access to Bases in one residential network.
Imagine Timothy. He makes $150k a year as a remote software engineer and just bought into Asia Pool II because his For You page in college kept showing him the Ha Giang Loop and Bangkok night markets every day. He now moves between Tokyo, Japan, Vietnam, Thailand freely every quarter.
What makes that feel different is the part Timothy barely notices. Every Base has a digital twin connecting his identity, Base Credits, bookings, access, and the people keeping the home alive. He books Tokyo, arrives, and the network already knows who he is and what he owns. No new landlord, lease, deposit, or 14-message Airbnb thread.
The ownership layer is programmable too. The deed can stay in a normal local entity while shares in the Pool become digital. In January 2026, the SEC staff said that recording a security onchain instead of offchain “does not affect application of the federal securities laws.” Good. The point is fractional ownership, automated compliance, and faster settlement, not crypto security hell. Tokenized real estate had already topped $10 billion by 2025, and 40% of asset managers were considering tokenizing assets while another 44% were exploring it. The rails are arriving. Bases makes them useful and accessible.
For the nerds, this means a magical dance between ERC-3643 contracts on Base, OpenZeppelin 5 and Hardhat 3 under the hood, Privy wallets users barely notice, and a role-separated multisig keeping the humans honest. Money by ACH or USDC.
