Honest, I didn't take carbon markets seriously until now. Once you read and learn about current problems you want to step in and change something. Fortunately, we've got @nonkyotoproto, who addresses the inefficiencies and trust gaps of legacy carbon markets. A thread🧵 Content: 1⃣ Introduction to NKP 2⃣ Strategic Positioning, Use Case Access, Projects 3⃣ Proof of Regeneration: The Green Mining Protocol 👇 1⃣ Introduction to NKP NKP introduces a decentralized infrastructure designed to transform the global carbon credit system. We've got: - blockchain technology - artificial intelligence - and real-world verified assets, for helping NKP to fill he inefficiencies and trust gaps of legacy carbon markets. At the foundation of this system is the Midori Earth Ecosystem (MEE) - operates as a traditional company developing and managing large-scale asset-backed carbon projects including: - forest conservation - methane capture - and biochar production. NKP is the Web3 foundation of the MEE, also is at the core of the MEE's Green Mining model. Together, MEE and NKP form a vertically integrated climate finance stack. Sounds good? Stay with me then... 2⃣ Strategic Positioning, Use Case Access, Projects NKP is positioned within the Midori Earth Ecosystem to scale verifiable climate solutions across diverse sectors, including: - afforestation - reforestation - landfill avoidance - biochar - clean fuel generation. NKP converts the value created by RWAs into tradable units - with them is making climate action and real world carbon project developments accessible to more participants. Including institutional investors, sovereign buyers, and individuals. NKP is the exclusive Web3 infrastructure partner for two flagship carbon projects: 1) Chaco Vivo REDD+ (Paraguay) - the largest REDD+ conservation project in the country - spanning 187,916 hectares - certified under VCS and CCB - first tranche will produce 100,000 carbon credits valued at over $2 million. 2) Dominican Republic Landfill Avoidance Project - a large-scale methane capture and landfill diversion initiative - producing millions of tonnes of CO₂e reductions and aligned with ISO 14064 methodologies. 3⃣ Proof of Regeneration: The Green Mining Protocol NKP is backed by a fully operational, cash generating system called the Green Mining Protocol. e.g Bitcoin mining - instead of racks of GPUs, they plug into projects that are represented by significant real-world assets that generate actual income: - waste to value facilities - forest conservation credits - global carbon markets. When you see a BTC example, you know it's serious work😅 The GM Protocol is a new model where NKP taps into income from RWAs. These are live, revenue generating projects that produce stable, consistent yield, just like Bitcoin blocks, but with zero emissions and real-life utility. Combined, the two projects which NKP is partner, represent over $750 million in underlying assets. Expected to produce more than 4 million tonnes of CO₂e, along with significant social and environmental co-benefits. How that sounds to you? We're tired of projects who don't have an objective, real-life use cases and utilities. We no longer know how to appreciate them. I will keep my eyes on it and get back with updates for you. Until then, write in the comms your opinion✍️
