Universal Protocol Alliance working with SFOX to make UPCO2 carbon credit token more accessible

2021-1-6 17:41

SFOX, an independent crypto prime broker, and Universal Protocol Alliance (UPA), a coalition of leading blockchain companies, today announced a collaboration to work together to combat global climate change: beginning by taking steps to make Universal Carbon (UPCO2) globally accessible to any digital wallet or exchange that wants to offer its clients the opportunity to buy the world’s first retail-accessible carbon credit token.

In 2020 UPA launched Universal Carbon (UPCO2), the world’s first tradable REDD+ carbon credit token. Each UPCO2 Token represents one tonne of CO2 pollution averted by a certified REDD+ project preventing rainforest loss or degradation. Every Token is backed by a Verified Carbon Unit [VCU], a digital certificate issued by Verra and other international standards agencies, which allows certified projects to turn their greenhouse gas (GHG) reductions into tradable carbon credits.

With demand for carbon credits outstripping supply by a factor of 4 to 1 in 2020, according to the World Bank, the UPCO2 Token aims to democratize an important new asset class, which could lead to the establishment of a global clearing price for carbon (as today exists for such commodities as oil and gold) and more resources going directly into environmental projects.

“From the world’s leading governments and international organizations, to financial institutions and large corporations, there is an understanding that we must make effective markets for carbon credits,” said Matthew Le Merle, Chairman of UPA and Vice Chairman of SFOX. “However, for most of the world’s 8 billion people, there is no easy and efficient way for them to demonstrate their own personal commitment to make their carbon footprints neutral. This is what we are partnering to solve now.”

As with all UPA stablecoin and crypto-commodity tokens (Bitcoin Zero, Universal Gold, UPUSD, UPBTC, UPEUR), Universal Carbon is available to any digital wallet, digital exchange or indeed any entity that would like to make these powerful digital solutions available to its customers.

Extra Votes for Andrew Yang for Following CZ Binance

Democratic POTUS hopeful Andrew Yang may have an uphill battle ahead. But as Binance’s Changpeng Zhao (CZ) pointed out, that doesn’t make him any less of a ‘hustler. ’ Andrew Yang Gets the Bitcoiner Vote While it’s unlikely that outsider Andrew Yang will win the race for POTUS next year, his pro-stance on Bitcoin and blockchain definitely wins the crypto community’s vote.

Sidechains vs Plasma vs Sharding

Special thanks to Jinglan Wang for review and feedback One question that often comes up is: how exactly is sharding different from sidechains or Plasma? All three architectures seem to involve a hub-and-spoke architecture with a central “main chain” that serves as the consensus backbone of the system, and a set of “child” chains containing actual user-level transactions.
