Real-time dMRV · on-chain proof · any sector

Trust, built into every carbon credit.

GreenTrust Protocol checks every data point from your project before it can become a credit, then records the credit’s whole life on Algorand. Solar farm, biogas plant, EV fleet or forest: if your impact can be measured, it can be proven.

    The market has spoken

    Integrity now sets the price of a carbon credit.

    Buyers are paying more for credits they can defend, and walking away from the rest. The projects that win are the ones whose data can be verified end to end.

    The problem

    Carbon markets run on data nobody can fully trust.

    Real projects struggle to stand out, bad actors game the system, and capital stays on the sidelines. Digitizing the old process doesn’t fix it.

    1. Double-counting and greenwashing

      The same tonne is claimed twice, or claims outrun the evidence.

    2. Fragmented data

      Evidence sits in scattered sensors, spreadsheets and PDFs, in many formats.

    3. Verification bottlenecks

      Manual, periodic audits are slow, expensive and prone to error.

    4. Opaque registries

      Siloed, document-based records offer snapshots, not transparency.

    5. Permanent bad data on-chain

      Tokenizing unchecked data makes its errors immutable.

    The platform

    The data-integrity backbone for carbon markets.

    In market terms, GreenTrust is a dMRV platform, built as foundational protocol rather than another dashboard. Two pillars work together, so trust is established before a credit exists. Think of it as dMRV++.

    Native data quality monitoring

    A built-in validation layer monitors, verifies and scores environmental data in real time, before anything is tokenized or written to the ledger.

    Tamper-proof blockchain ledger

    Every credit’s issuance, transfer and retirement is recorded transparently and immutably on Algorand, auditable by every participant.

    On the roadmap

    Compliance and SDG reporting

    Built-in report templates and a UN SDG module that maps your project to the goals it supports.

    How it works

    From raw data to retired credit, in three steps.

    01

    Ingest and validate

    Sensors, meters, satellites, MRV tools and manual sources stream in continuously. Schema, logic, range, time and anomaly checks run on every point. Only validated data moves on.

    02

    Tokenize verified credits

    Smart contracts issue each credit as a unique token carrying its project type, location, standard, verification body and timestamp.

    03

    Track the full lifecycle

    Issuance, transfer and final retirement are visible on-chain. A retired credit is locked and can never be reused.

    Architecture

    From sensor to trusted credit. Select a layer.

    The pre-tokenization gatekeeper

    Bad data never becomes a credit.

    Schema checksLogic rulesRange validationTime consistencyAnomaly detectionConfidence score

    Only high-confidence data reaches the blockchain, so disputes are prevented up front instead of being unpicked after credits have been sold.

    Then smart contracts take over: they trigger issuance, transfer ownership on payment and enforce final retirement so no credit is used twice.

    Industries

    If it can be measured, it can be trusted.

    GreenTrust doesn’t depend on the activity, only on the data it produces. The same trust layer serves every sector, and new project types plug in without rebuilding it. Choose yours to see how it works.

    Working in another sector? If your project produces measurable data, the configurable input module can bring it onto the protocol.

    Challenge

    With GreenTrust

    Outcome

    Positioning

    Deeper than reporting. Neutral to every marketplace.

    Most MRV and dMRV tools sit at the reporting layer and rely on upstream data they can’t audit. GreenTrust validates raw telemetry before tokenization, anchors proofs on-chain and observes the whole data pipeline.

    Blockchain from Algorand plus data-quality monitoring from DragonflyDQ gives guarantees that a dashboard alone cannot.

    The ecosystem bridge

    We complement registries and marketplaces. We don’t compete with them.

    Registries and standards bodies

    Today: methodologies and records depend on manual, document-based checks.

    With GreenTrust: a real-time data layer that makes verification faster, cheaper and auditable.

    Marketplaces and exchanges

    Today: tokenized credits still rest on fragmented, manually verified data.

    With GreenTrust: high-confidence assets to list and trade with certainty.

    Buyers, investors and auditors

    Today: due diligence is slow and greenwashing risk is hard to rule out.

    With GreenTrust: sensor-to-credit lineage they can check for themselves.

    Who benefits

    Trusted data compounds value.

    Why now

    This is the decade to fix carbon market trust.

    Standards are tightening

    ICVCM’s Core Carbon Principles and VCMI’s Claims Code raise the bar for integrity and claims.

    Compliance markets are live

    Paris Article 6 frames international trading. India’s CCTS now binds about 490 entities in seven sectors.

    Claims need data

    Regulators, investors and the public expect verifiable evidence, not PDFs and spreadsheets.

    The technology is ready

    Algorand and mature IoT make real-time monitoring and on-chain verification practical at scale.
