Grant Description

Geld.Network: ​Creating the largest land ownership community in the world with one common purpose to bring people, planet, and profit together.

Welcome to Geld.Network, we are earthkeepers, academics, developers, radical thinkers, economists, and people like you who care for our common home. It's great we are planning to become a multi-planetary species, but we have to save the earth first. At Geld environmental conservation meets cutting-edge blockchain technology. We are tokenizing real-world assets starting with land and carbon credits.

Geld.Network is a trailblazing carbon credit collective using Agroforestry and other nature-based solutions to regenerate overfarmed lands and protect their biodiversity. Our platform is designed to streamline the connection between landowners and carbon credit certifiers. Through its unique integration with synthetix, Geld.Network introduces a new era of efficiency and transparency to environmental preservation and unlocking liquidity real world assets.

Overview

We leverage image recognition and geolocation technology to precisely determine the extent of preserved green areas, ensuring accurate carbon credit token calculation, credibility of the carbon credits, and accountability of the process. We are using Blockchain technology ( smart contract) capabilities to record every transaction and provide carbon credit accountability and proof of ownership.

We are taking things one step further by unlocking new asset classes for local communities and emerging markets through the securitization of land under management with our land charter system. There are many tree-planting projects mostly in Southeast Asia and South America but the idea is still far to go in Africa and Eastern Europe. Also, most of these projects only focus on carbon credit generation and offsetting but we are creating a new asset class that unlocks prosperity for the bottom of the pyramid.
