🌍Mission and Motive

Regenerate our Planet, and Generate Wealth with Blue Carbon Gold!

Mangrove Trees protect our climate, an entire ecosystem and our costal communities..as well as provide yield to our protocol!

Our Mission:

Make it simple, and financially responsible to fight climate change!

Blue Carbon Gold is dedicated to simplifying and financially empowering the fight against climate change. Our protocol harnesses the immense potential of nature-based solutions, specifically Blue Carbon, to sequester carbon up to 3-5 times faster than conventional tree species. We convert this accelerated growth into revenue through Carbon Credits markets, which are then made available to large corporations seeking to fulfill their 'net-zero' commitments.

The Challenge:

Mangroves, also known as terrestrial Blue Carbon, are under threat, diminishing at an alarming rate of 2% annually. Astonishingly, the carbon emissions resulting from mangrove deforestation contribute up to 10% of global deforestation emissions, even though they occupy just 0.7% of the world's land coverage.

The Solution:

Blue Carbon Gold recognizes the vital role of mangroves as keystone species within marine ecosystems. Beyond carbon storage, mangroves offer essential ecosystem services, including shoreline erosion prevention, habitat for fish and marine biodiversity, and the facilitation of coral reef growth. BCG serves as a liquidity generation investment vehicle that preserves and conserves these ecosystems.

Blue Carbon assets back a straightforward utility token that adheres to relevant EU regulatory standards. This asset is accessible to both retail and institutional investors, expanded by yield bearing NFT’s in vintages as new mangrove restoration projects join our portfolio.

Currently, we have a robust project pipeline valued at $140 million, covering over 40,000 hectares in countries such as Indonesia, Tanzania, Colombia, and more.

The Advantage:

Blue Carbon Gold is positioned as an attractive investment opportunity for environmentally-conscious younger generations and larger institutions aiming to diversify their impact strategy. Our assets uphold institutional-grade transparency, and we leverage the efficiency of Web3 technology for tokenization and financial inclusivity. Our goal is to become a defensive asset backed token that is comparable to Gold, with Blue Carbon assets providing teh revenue drivers. As our market capitalization and assets continue to grow, we significantly reduce the risk for new investors as we expand into a Index token model.

Why are Carbon Credits a valuable commodity?

Market Potential: The Carbon Credit market currently faces challenges with an influx of low-quality credits. To meet estimated future demand, the market will need to expand by a factor of 50. Here's the scale of the challenge:

Current carbon credit market supply: 30 million tC02 per year

Estimated future demand by 2030: 1.5 billion tC02 per year

To maintain below a 2% temperature change, we must sequester a substantial 10 billion tC02

Notably, Blue Carbon Credits were selling for an average of $27 in 2022, a fivefold increase compared to the average Carbon Credit sales in 2020. The premium valuation of Blue Carbon assets is due to their exceptional impact, which encompasses sequestration, biodiversity conservation, ecosystem development, and support for local communities in terms of food security and tidal safety. As the entire carbon credit market expands by fivefold, we anticipate further price appreciation in the future.

Why doesn't this exist:

Securitization of natural assets proved to be difficult in the early years of blockchain, until more regulatory specificity was attained in Europe. Now, managing the tree planting and accreditation requires specific expertise. Vlinder has been specializing in the tokenization and management of Blue Carbon assets from the ground up to accreditation and sale.

Why us?

Experts in DeFi and Tokenization:

Our team has been involved in the exploration of legally tokenizing natural assets since before the Ethereum launch. within the Regenerative space fueling the growth of 1M+ Mangroves in Malaysia in the Mangrove DAO, which formed out of TREE coin in 2017, built on the Bitcoin blockchain. This community will be integrated as we roll out the launch. We have had significant experience in the set up and management of financial products on web3 rails within a compliant legal structure.

Experts in Asset Management:

We have expertise and ties with traditional finance and asset management, as well as deep connection into the evolving web3 DeFi space. Our asset management sister organization is Vlinder Climate , who are pioneers in the development of high quality Blue Carbon projects and assets. They have a holistic approach including the local community stakeholders in development and maintenance to ensure long term security for investors. They also deploy state of the art technology to track growth using AI and drones, all official verified by the appropriate association, Verra.

How Our Protocol Works:

Combining ReFi, DeFi and Creating Gamified Collectibles!

Our protocol, operating on the FLOW blockchain, integrates Refi, DeFi, and gamified collectibles. It comprises $MCN (Mangrove Cluster NFTs), representing 0.1 hectares of conserved land, and $BCG (Blue Carbon Gold), a utility token collateralized by Blue Carbon Credits and $MCN assets conglomerated into an index token.

Mangrove Clusters ($MCN): Each Mangrove Cluster NFT symbolizes 0.1 hectares of conserved land, and the carbon credit rights associated. The will vary in yield by vintage depending on the vintage and is continually updated with real-world data. Users collect these dynamic NFTs through a gamified platform, featuring unique images. They yield 10+% per year, reflecting biological growth and carbon credit sales. $MCN can be purchased with USDC or later $BCG.

Asset Management:

We leverage NFT funds to acquire or establish new Blue Carbon Assets through Vlinder, our expert Asset Management Company, with a track record of planting nearly 10 Mangrove trees in different assets. Our asset managers ensure a consistent yield of Blue Carbon credits, the management of community and marketing is factored in already when considering the asset yield. These assets generate accredited Blue Carbon Credits, which are available t.

Blue Carbon Gold ($BCG):

After the release of a few vintages of NFTs, we will create an index token for the DAO, Blue Carbon Gold, creating a lower APR, De-Risked option for increased liquidity management and institutional investment. $BCG will be created and re-issued to holders can be acquired off-market or bonded from the minter and is backed by Carbon Credits from Blue Carbon Assets. Users have the flexibility to purchase $BCG or earn it through Mangrove Cluster NFTs instead of USDC, after the DAO formation event.

Future of Blue Carbon Gold, and the Mother Mangrove Mission

Our vision is to expand the Blue Carbon Asset base of the BCG index to a Market Cap of 100-500 million dollars assets under management, thereby mitigating risks, and stabilizing price fluctuations, and deepen the liquidity pool for investors to enter and exit. At the same time we can optimize for a yield above 4%, making BCG an attractive option for institutional investors like hedge and retirement funds. With the ultimate goal of positioning our financial instrument as a cornerstone for sustainable wealth and ecosystem preservation.

Join us in generating wealth while we regenerate the Earth's ecosystems! Transforming blockchain's reputation from being perceived as environmentally unfriendly to providing a secure, asset-backed financial vehicle that systematically contributes to preserving nature and supporting the communities that depend on it.

We are looking forward to seeing you inside the community!

What do we think crypto craves?

The need for stable assets in crypto markets is essential to address the inherent volatility of cryptocurrencies. By backing tokens with real-world assets generating revenue, investors can find greater stability and long-term trust in an investable asset. Using Blue Carbon assets, such as mangrove forests, we can begin to formulate an elegant solution, offering both environmental protection and revenue streams derived from biological growth. By harnessing the value flows of blue carbon assets, stable crypto tokens can contribute to a more sustainable economy while providing stability and trust for investors in the ever-evolving world of cryptocurrencies.

What are the issues with most crypto projects?

  1. No base substance or value behind the token

    1. Price increases on speculation, not value

    2. Usage determined by scarcity

  2. No real-world revenue streams

    1. The business model is flawed as revenue is smaller than emissions

    2. The business model doesn't actually generate revenue and the price is only propped up by new buyers

  3. Tokenomics generally create unsustainable token price growth or decline via emissions

    1. Funds rewarded out are not balanced

    2. Entry price is generally higher as emissions increase and base moneta

    3. ry supply dilutes the value of the token

Obviously, some of these don't apply to all protocols, but broadly speaking these challenges need to be addressed for a project to merit investment based on its actual value to the market.

Value = Impact = Revenue Streams

= Recognizable positive externalities

Value is the key to creating a protocol with the capability of outlasting bull and bear cycles, while at the same time, most value at the moment on the chain comes from improvements (and speculations) in the wide world of web3.. we look at this from a background of traditional financial instruments and took it upon ourselves to create a simplified, impact orientated financial product that allowed an investor to return stable yields while making a difference.. let's take a look at how.

Tokenomics

Blue Carbon - Oceanic Carbon Sequestration Assets

Blue Carbon assets refer to the value associated with the carbon sequestration and storage potential of coastal and marine ecosystems, including mangroves, seagrasses, and salt marshes. These assets represent the stored carbon in the form of biomass and sediment within these habitats. Blue carbon assets are important in the context of climate change mitigation as they contribute significantly to carbon sequestration, often surpassing terrestrial forests in their carbon storage capacity.

These assets also provide additional ecosystem services such as shoreline protection, habitat provision, and water quality improvement. Efforts are being made to conserve and restore blue carbon ecosystems, and projects associated with these assets can generate carbon credits that can be traded in the carbon market, providing economic incentives for their preservation and restoration. Blue carbon assets thus play a crucial role in both climate change mitigation and the promotion of sustainable coastal ecosystems.

Gold - A defensible Asset for Gold

The Crypto market is in a bear market, however even after, those in crypto and those coming from traditional finance to keep their wealth in decentralized and sovereign assets will want a stable way to earn passive income that is sustainable. Not only will the assets funded by Blue Carbon Gold most likely be able to generate consistent revenue for 20 years, the revenue has the possibility to increase as the demand for carbon credits that are high quality, like our validated, verified, and fully transparent process at Vlinder will accomplish!

Blue Carbon Gold -

Asset backed token with Sustainable yield based on biological growth

Blue Carbon Gold is a financial impact investment vehicle to allow anyone to earn a passive yield and protect their wealth by investing in the environment and earning returns from reversing our impact on the planet. Both by protecting its natural ecosystems and cleaning our air!
