Kinexys Carbon Token (KCT) is a pioneering project by Kinexys that leverages blockchain technology to digitize and tokenize carbon credits. Anchored to the price of EU carbon credits for stability, KCT aims to enhance transparency, reduce transaction costs, and enable seamless global participation in the fight against climate change.
Kinexys Carbon Token
The official token economic model of Kinexys Carbon Token, as defined in the whitepaper.
The total supply of KCT is fixed at 250 million tokens. KCT is deployed on BNB Chain and Ethereum, with its value anchored to European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) carbon credit prices for stability.
KCT's value is stabilized through its anchoring to EU carbon credit prices and a dedicated 10% Reserves allocation, which acts as a market stability fund to mitigate volatility.
Team & Advisors (15%, 24-month lock), Strategic Partners (20%, 12-month lock), Ecosystem Incentives & Rewards (30%), Primary Market & Liquidity (25%), and Reserves (10%).
Carbon credit projects are registered with recognized registries (e.g., Verra, Gold Standard). Independent validators verify the project's authenticity and emission reductions, ensuring compliance with global standards.
Verified carbon credits are digitized and tokenized on the Kinexys blockchain. Each KCT token represents one tonne of CO2 equivalent, creating a transparent and immutable digital asset.
KCT tokens can be traded peer-to-peer on decentralized exchanges (DEXs) or through institutional channels. Smart contracts enable instant, secure, and transparent settlement, reducing transaction costs and time.
When a credit is used for offsetting emissions, the corresponding KCT token is permanently retired (burned) on-chain. This creates an immutable record for ESG reporting and ensures no double-counting.
