The DCM ecosystem

Built on public blockchains, the Digital Carbon Market is an ever-growing ecosystem that is accelerating climate solutions.

Ecosystem map

The DCM has emerged across three layers

Built on an open and permissionless infrastructure stack, digital carbon assets are inherently transparent, and plug in to applications that can leverage novel incentive mechanisms and governance.

Applications

Marketplaces

On-chain carbon credit marketplaces that connect project developers, 
buyers and sellers directly

On-chain retirement

Tooling for individuals and 
organizations to calculate 
and offset carbon emissions

Project financing

Fundraising mechanisms for
pre-certified projects, including the creation of a liquid secondary market for forward credits

Assets

Tokenized carbon credits

Fungible tokens that represent
1 tCO2e of an underlying carbon project, often bundled into "pools” that share similar attributes

Crypto-native credits

Credits minted natively on the blockchain, accompanied by methodologies and MRV services 
with decentralized governance

Carbon NFTs

Non-fungible (ERC-721) tokens used to attribute ownership and for fundraising, philanthropy, or educational purposes

Infrastructure

Layer 1 / 2 blockchains

Sustainability-focused blockchain networks with energy efficient consensus mechanisms and vibrant, growing ecosystems

Carbon bridges

Bridges that connect with legacy carbon registries to bring carbon assets on-chain (tokenize > fractionalize > pooling)

Market data

Collection and presentation of carbon credit trading and retirements data in order to promote transparency for all ecosystem participants

Exchanges

(De)centralized exchanges offering carbon pool tokens with real-time pricing, deep liquidity, and 24/7 accessibility
