The project plans to build over 40,000 residential units, covering nearly 40 million square meters, with a cost of billions of dollars, and is expected to break ground in the first quarter of 2027.Lava claims this is its first real-world asset authorization project. Currently, no units have been tokenized, and no infrastructure has been deployed; BHL is not required to pay any upfront fees to Lava.

Lava stated that the tokenization structure has not yet been determined, and any tokens will supplement rather than replace existing property registrations; whether the project can advance to the tokenization stage depends on subsequent assessment results.
