Affordability: Lowering Barriers to Infrastructure Investment

The capital-intensive nature of data center infrastructure has historically excluded 99% of potential investors from participating in this high-growth sector. With traditional investment minimums ranging from $5 million to $50 million for direct facility ownership and $250,000-$1 million for REIT positions, data center exposure remains confined to ultra-high-net-worth individuals and institutional allocators. Mizzle.Fi's tokenization platform fundamentally redefines affordability by reducing minimum investment thresholds by 1,000x or more while simultaneously decreasing transaction costs and eliminating intermediary fees.

Dramatically Reduced Minimum Investments

The most immediate affordability benefit stems from fractional ownership enabled through tokenization. By dividing data center facilities into thousands or millions of individual tokens, Mizzle.Fi enables participation at investment levels as low as $100-$1,000.

Democratized Access: Retail investors, SMEs, and international participants who previously faced complete exclusion can now access institutional-grade data center assets.

Flexible Capital Deployment: Rather than committing entire investment budgets to single positions, participants can allocate capital incrementally, building positions over time as their financial situations evolve.

Lower Opportunity Cost: Reduced minimum investments mean investors no longer need to accumulate large capital reserves before participating, eliminating years of delayed returns while building sufficient capital.

Elimination of Intermediary Costs

Traditional data center investments involve multiple intermediaries who extract fees at every stage of the transaction process-legal advisors, brokers, custodians, fund administrators, and transfer agents. These intermediaries collectively add 2-5% in transaction costs while extending settlement times to weeks or months.

Blockchain technology fundamentally eliminates or dramatically reduces these intermediary costs:

Smart Contract Automation: Automated execution of ownership transfers, revenue distributions, and compliance checks eliminates manual processing fees. Global Financial Markets Association estimates that smart contract automation could save $15-20 billion annually in operational costs across financial services.

Direct Peer-to-Peer Transactions: Blockchain enables direct transfers between buyers and sellers without requiring brokers, custodians, or clearinghouses. The 21X platform, for example, achieves settlement in 2 seconds compared to traditional multi-day cycles while reducing participant costs by more than 50%.
