Index Industries Reports $50 Million Seed Round for Housing-Index Platform

Foresight News reported on November 11, 2026, that real-estate tokenization company Index Industries had announced a $50 million seed round led by Lightspeed Venture Partners, with participation from Polychain Capital, Galaxy Ventures and Wintermute Ventures, among others.

The company was co-founded by Josh Rosenthal, a former president and general partner at Polychain Capital, and Brian Hardecker, CEO of residential real-estate platform Longmark. According to the report, its platform combines a daily U.S. home-price index, tokenization technology, and real-estate and capital-markets services. Its first product is the USHP Index, a U.S. home-price benchmark.

Index Industries says it aims to make U.S. housing an investable asset class. The funding announcement and product description establish the stated plan, not whether the platform will deliver on that aim.
