Climate Tech Meets Defi | With Klima
is a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) and DeFi protocol that bridges the gap between Web3 and traditional carbon markets to accelerate climate finance. It functions as a "decentralized central bank" for carbon, utilizing its native $KLIMA token—a carbon-backed, algorithmic reserve currency—to incentivize the removal of greenhouse gases. Core Mechanism: How Climate Meets DeFi
: By purchasing and locking carbon credits in its treasury, KlimaDAO aims to increase demand and drive up the price of carbon assets, making it more expensive for companies to pollute and more profitable to invest in green tech.
: You sell specific assets (like BCT or MCO2) to the protocol in exchange for $KLIMA at a discounted market price. Climate tech meets DeFi with Klima
: Stakers receive a portion of the "seigniorage" (newly minted tokens) through a rebase mechanism that occurs approximately every 7.2 hours.
: Built on the Polygon blockchain to ensure transparency, liquidity, and low transaction friction compared to traditional opaque carbon markets. Participating in the Ecosystem is a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) and DeFi
: Incentivize long-term holding to reduce circulating supply. Bonding (Active) :
: This is the primary way the treasury acquires its carbon-backed reserves. The Evolution: Klima 2.0 : You sell specific assets (like BCT or
You can engage with the protocol through two primary DeFi strategies: and bonding . Staking (Passive) :
