A fintech mogul is logging out of his South Florida home.
Bill Roy, the founder and CEO of BlockGen, is parting ways with his ocean-view Miami Beach condominium. Known for his expertise in financial technology, Roy’s career has taken him from roles as a lead mortgage banking analyst at Merrill Lynch to a portfolio manager at Arco Investments. He later launched the private equity firm JAM Partners before founding BlockGen, a company dedicated to transforming mortgage technology with its LoanPASS system.
Now, Roy is selling his lavish, gut-renovated residence at the Continuum, at the southern tip of South Beach, for $25.9 million with Eddy Martinez and Roland Ortiz with The Worldwide Group at ONE Sotheby’s International Realty, along with Natalia Gryczynska of Hilton & Hilton.

According to The Real Deal, Roy dropped $12.1 million on the two-unit combination condo back in 2021—about half of what he’s currently seeking. Spanning 4,776 square feet, the 28th-floor spread offers three bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms, with panoramic views to the east and southwest, showcasing both sunrises over the turquoise waters and dramatic sunsets over the city skyline. Designed with meticulous attention to detail, the home is offered fully turnkey, with a selection of high-end furnishings by B&B Italia and Minotti, curated by Gallerie Noire.
The open, sun-flooded layout includes a formal salon with an oceanfront bar, multiple lounges, and a formal dining area. European wide-plank wood floors, custom LED-lit millwork, and architectural lighting add to the contemporary sophistication. The chef’s kitchen, equipped with Wolf appliances, includes Viola marble counters, brass accents, and a large island with an integrated snack bar. A wall of windows connects to a rotunda balcony that’s perfect for entertaining.

The principal suite provides both seclusion and plush comfort. In addition to a sunrise terrace, a separate lounge, a private office, and a dressing room, the spa bath is adorned in book-matched marble with a steam shower and heated floors. Elsewhere, the sky-high pad is decked out with a media room, family room, and office, as well as two private entrance lobbies, plus a staff entrance and dual laundry areas.
Located within Continuum’s 13-acre oceanfront enclave, the residence’s $5,714 per month association fee—not to mention an annual tax bill of about a quarter million dollars—provides residents and guests access to a slate of world-class amenities, including a beach club, private restaurant, tennis courts, expansive fitness center, and swanky on-site med-spa.
