S
audi developer Dar Global plans to tokenize up to 70 % of its Trump‑branded resort in the Maldives, targeting U.S. retail investors. CEO Ziad El Chaar said the token sale will fund the project’s development phase, giving buyers exposure from the outset rather than waiting for the property to be finished. The resort, valued at roughly $300 million, will be built about 25 minutes by speedboat from Malé and is slated to open by the end of 2028. It will feature around 80 luxury beach sites and overwater villas.

    Dar Global intends to retain a 30‑40 % ownership stake and is in talks with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission about the token offering. The Trump Organization, represented by Eric Trump, has highlighted the venture as a new benchmark for real‑estate innovation through blockchain.

    In addition to the Maldives project, Dar Global and the Trump Organization are developing an 80‑story tower in Dubai and luxury homes and golf properties across the Middle East.
