Construction officially began on July 16, 2025 on an independent commercial development in the founder’s hometown of Medina, MN. Among the four buildings to be constructed, the anchor will be an approximately 45,000 sq. ft., four story web3 friendly, arts & entertainment venue with boutique hotel. Affectionately referred to as the “The Block Castle” by Egonaut members, this crown jewel of the 18 acre development, is projected to be completed in 2027, after which it will host it’s first annual exclusive IRL event for Order of the Egonaut NFT holders* and future events to follow.

The independently financed and locally owned development project will incorporate a state-of-the-art geothermal system, as well as plans to incorporate tokenized real-estate assets, as well as an edge data center, located on a separately owned property, but part of the same overall development. Incorporating emerging technology, as well as sustainability components is important for ecological and economic purposes, but also to showcase how emerging and disruptive technology including blockchain can play a positive role in sustainable design and more equitable and efficient processes.
