+Wellvyl Taps EquityShare to Tokenize Flagship Wellness Space in NYC
NEW YORK, NY, Aug 2025 – Tackling the growing epidemic of loneliness, NYC-based social wellness company +wellvyl today announced its plan to launch its first brick-and-mortar flagship in New York City. The new hub is designed to foster meaningful human connection through a variety of wellness and social experiences. To fuel the vision,+wellvyl has tapped fintech startup EquityShare as a capital partner, leveraging its unique blend of crowdfunding and tokenization to streamline the acquisition and development of the space.
The initiative, which started during July's Social Wellness Month and is officially launching now, during August’s National Wellness Month, marks a new chapter for +wellvyl, a public benefit corporation dedicated to creating a kinder, nicer, healthier human experience for New Yorkers and Global Urbanites through fun, inclusive, and thoughtful live events, a membership program, and concierge health and wellness amenities.
The Vision: A Hub for Human Connection
The planned +wellvyl hub will serve as a physical center for its mission, providing a dedicated space for social wellness events, sober-curious parties, and community gatherings. The facility will feature a range of amenities, including a sauna, steam room, cold plunges, a shop, a cafe and bar, some office and meeting space, and a dance floor for a nightlife destination designed for New York's global healthy, fit, and well lifestylers.
"Our mission has always been about creating real-world spaces where kindness, connection, and mindfulness can flourish," said Christopher Krietchman, owner of +wellvyl. "We believe wellness is richer when shared. This hub will be the physical, tangible, and transformational place where our community comes to life. If you’re the type of person who’s committed to growing a non-toxic personal and professional network then +wellvyl is the place for you.”
A New Model: Community-Powered Ownership
To finance the acquisition and development of the flagship location, +wellvyl has partnered with EquityShare, a blockchain-based equity tokenization platform. EquityShare has provided the complete architecture for the +wellvyl Token, from smart contract deployment and on-chain governance to investor wallet provisioning and compliance tooling.
This model democratizes ownership, allowing supporters who are aligned with the company's mission to invest directly and hold a stake in the wellness space.
"August is National Wellness Month, and the launch of the +wellvyl Token is perfectly timed to harness the energy of this moment," said Vernon Jay, Founder of EquityShare. "By tokenizing equity, we're not just raising capital; we're cultivating collective ownership of meaningful social infrastructure. We are proud to empower +wellvyl's community with a scalable, compliant token platform that lets them invest directly in the built environment of wellness.”
Following the successful launch in New York City, +wellvyl plans to expand its community-owned wellness model to Miami and beyond.
