ETHZilla to tokenize a portfolio of 95 home loans yielding 10.36% annually as it expands beyond Ethereum treasury management

The Block
ETHZilla acquired 95 home loans for $4.7 million to tokenize on an Ethereum L2, aiming for a 10.36% annual yield.

Summary

Ethereum treasury firm ETHZilla Corporation has purchased a portfolio of 95 manufactured and modular home loans for $4.7 million. The company plans to convert this portfolio into a tokenized financial product on an Ethereum Layer 2 network, which is expected to offer an annualized yield of approximately 10.36% and feature on-chain tracking and automated cash-flow distributions. This product is scheduled to launch on the Liquidity.io trading platform in late February or early March, with Zippy Loans, LLC continuing to service the underlying loans. This move signifies ETHZilla's expansion from pure Ethereum treasury management into tokenizing real-world assets (RWA), a strategy supported by its prior investment in Zippy and a recent tokenization experiment involving aircraft engines. ETHZilla, which rebranded from a biotech firm in August 2025, raised $565 million to fund its on-chain yield strategy.
