The Unveiling of the NFT Staking Program
The program introduces a distinctive concept where participants have the opportunity to accrue carbon rewards through NFT staking. These rewards are exchangeable for the “Lowest Carbon Denominator” (LCD) Token, a novel token that adheres to UN Climate Standards. This innovation establishes a definitive value for each digital carbon unit, ensuring authenticity and mitigating the risks of fraud.
Navigating the Environmental Landscape
As a trailblazer in “Web3-as-a-Service” solutions, iSHANG collaborates with Earth Exchange, a subsidiary of Promax United & Preferred Partners, to spearhead digital transactions in the environmental and climate change sectors. Their collaborative venture is centered around an NFT staking program designed to preserve the integrity of carbon offsets and broaden the scope of voluntary carbon markets.
Upholding UN Climate Standards
Aligned with UN Climate Standards, the LCD Token sets a foundational value for each digital carbon unit, derived from environmental sequestration. The token’s meticulous traceability ensures genuine transactions, establishing a robust defense against counterfeiting and manipulation. This meticulous approach is pivotal in maintaining the integrity of transactions within the digital asset ecosystem.
The Crucial Role of the LCD Token
The LCD Token assumes a critical role in authenticating and safeguarding transactions. The LCD-NFT staking program, presented by the partnership, introduces four levels of participation—Advocate, Activist, Ambassador, and Warrior. These levels empower users to mint collectible NFTs, fostering environmental awareness and contributing to the global mission of sustainability.
