• A NYSE American-listed mortgage lender has successfully tokenized over $1 billion worth of residential mortgage data on the Injective network
• The initiative launched in December 2025 with 1,259 mortgage entries and expanded to 2,079 entries by September 2026
• Every tokenized entry contains over 500 individual data points including borrower information, loan terms and risk metrics
• The ultimate goal involves migrating 29,000+ mortgage contracts valued at more than $10 billion
• The firm maintains an additional $100 million treasury position in Injective tokens

A Toronto-headquartered mortgage lending company, Pineapple Financial, which trades on the NYSE American exchange, has successfully tokenized over $1 billion worth of residential mortgage data on the Injective blockchain. This development represents a significant milestone in the ongoing integration of traditional finance with blockchain infrastructure.

The tokenization initiative kicked off in December 2025 with an initial batch of 1,259 mortgage entries. Nine months later, in September 2026, the program had expanded to encompass 2,079 records, with the aggregate tracked value climbing to approximately $1.1 billion—representing growth of nearly 48% from inception.

Injective operates as a purpose-built layer-1 blockchain designed specifically for financial use cases. Pineapple selected this network as the technological backbone for its mortgage data tokenization initiative.

Every on-chain entry encompasses more than 500 distinct data points. This comprehensive dataset includes borrower credentials, loan specifications, funding timelines, and risk assessment metrics, all consolidated into a single verifiable blockchain record.

The company has emphasized that this initiative does not create novel financial instruments. Instead, the blockchain records function as a transparent layer above the underlying mortgages, which maintain their conventional legal frameworks. The distributed ledger component aims to streamline verification processes and enhance risk evaluation capabilities.

These tokenized mortgage records operate under the ticker PAPL0, which presently shows a market capitalization near $1.1 billion based on Token Terminal metrics.

Substantial Migration Still Pending

With 2,079 entries completed against a total objective exceeding 29,000, the organization has finished approximately 7% of its comprehensive migration roadmap. The entire portfolio encompasses more than $10 billion in originated mortgage loans.

Beyond the mortgage tokenization program, Pineapple maintains a distinct $100 million position in Injective tokens, with cryptocurrency exchange Kraken functioning as a key validator for its staked assets. This treasury exists independently from the mortgage data initiative.

The firm has revealed plans for two complementary products connected to this program. The first involves a permissioned Mortgage Data Marketplace, designed to provide institutional participants with access to anonymized, granular loan analytics. The second offering, branded as Pineapple Prime, would enable investors to participate in mortgage-backed returns through blockchain-native channels.

Property Tokenization Gains Momentum

Pineapple Financial is far from the only organization investigating blockchain applications for real estate documentation. This past June, Apex Group collaborated with Goldman Sachs, Archax, and LRC Group on a tokenized property fund built atop Goldman Sachs’ Digital Asset Platform.

Similarly, Dubai’s Land Department initiated the second stage of its real estate tokenization experiment in February, leveraging the XRP Ledger following the successful tokenization of approximately $5 million in properties during its initial phase.

Despite these developments, tokenized property assets remain a modest segment within the larger real-world asset ecosystem. The category currently represents roughly $226.5 million in distributed value, contrasted with $38.8 billion across all tokenized real-world assets monitored by RWA.xyz.

Nevertheless, Pineapple’s initiative ranks among the more ambitious individual undertakings in this domain, with its $10 billion migration objective significantly exceeding most comparable projects currently underway.
