💎 BCGOLD Utility
Your key to accessing and governing carbon regeneration.
BCGOLD is the on-chain token that governs the Blue Carbon Credit Pool. It is automatically issued when a verified project completes, and your NFT is converted.
Each token represents a claim on carbon credits and a vote in the future of the pool.
🔑 What Can You Do With BCGOLD?
🗳 Vote
Decide what happens to carbon credits in the pool: sell, retire, or hold.
🔥 Burn to Retire Credits
Burn BCGOLD and retire your share of carbon credits permanently — in your name.
♻️ Participate in Buyback Cycles
If credits are sold, proceeds are used to buy and burn BCGOLD — reducing supply.
📈 Hold Scarce Access
As more credits enter the pool, NAV increases — but supply is deflationary.
🏛 Governance Mechanics
All decisions (credit retirement %, sales, allocation logic) are on-chain proposals.
Votes are open to all BCGOLD holders and weighted by token amount.
Each cycle (e.g. post-verification), token holders vote on the share of credits to sell vs. retire.
Example: 25% of newly verified credits are allocated to the pool. BCGOLD holders vote to retire 60% and sell 40%. Credits are processed accordingly.
🔥 Burn = Impact
When you burn BCGOLD, you are:
Permanently removing tokens from circulation.
Retiring the corresponding amount of carbon credits.
Receiving a verifiable certificate of retirement in your name.
Strengthening the scarcity and ecological alignment of the system.
💡 Why BCGOLD Matters
BCGOLD is not just a token — it's:
🧾 A carbon access credential.
🗳 A governance right.
💥 A supply sink via burn mechanics.
🌍 A public proof of participation in global regeneration.
Every BCGOLD token carries weight — environmentally, communally, and structurally.
This isn’t about flipping tokens. It’s about scaling a system that aligns climate outcomes with community coordination.

How BCGOLD Operates
1. Verified Collateral Pool
Carbon credits, issued via Verra, are tracked and accounted for in the BCGOLD NAV.
The token supply is dynamically adjusted to reflect:
Newly verified credits.
Retirements or OTC sales impacting the underlying pool.
2. Governance-Controlled Supply Reduction
Community decides how many credits to retire or sell.
Every retirement or OTC sale burns BCGOLD, reducing supply and supporting long-term value.
3. Staking & Engagement
Token holders can stake BCGOLD to support future project funding and governance initiatives.
Staking rewards are tied to protocol growth and carbon credit accrual, fostering long-term alignment.
