Mission:
Empowering a transparent, efficient, and scalable carbon economy by unifying origination, blockchain-based trading, and real-time data intelligence into one integrated platform.
Why Changeblock?
The Problem We Solve
- Fragmented Value Chain – Developers, brokers, and exchanges operate in silos, causing 12–18 month delays and 5–20% hidden fees.
- Trust Deficit – “Junk credits,” double counting, and opaque pricing erode buyer confidence.
- Data Gap – No real-time, verified view of carbon project performance or pricing.
Our Solution
- Originate (CBO): AI-driven project design and registry submission, cutting verification time by up to 60%.
- Exchange (CBX): Regulated, tokenized marketplace with transparent order books and ultra-low transaction fees (2.15% buyer / 3.15% seller).
- Data & AI (CBD): Subscription-based intelligence platform delivering live pricing, forecasts, and risk analytics.
Differentiators
- Verified on-chain credits to eliminate fraud and ensure traceability.
- Integrated Digital MRV (dMRV) for real-time emissions validation.
- Insurance-backed credits via partnerships with Artio Carbon for risk mitigation.
- Strategic partnerships: Nasdaq, JP Morgan (settlement), Puro.earth, Verra, government alliances in 40+ African nations.
Market Opportunity
- $50B voluntary carbon market by 2030; compliance and Article 6 mechanisms accelerating growth.
- Premium removal credits (e.g., Biochar) command $130–$150/ton and growing, offering high IRR.
- Changeblock targets 0.5% of a $1T+ market by Year 5, equating to $5B in trading volume.
Impact in Motion
- $6M+ live transactions, including European brokerage and global shipping deals.
- 41 countries, 210 currencies supported, 350M+ credits ready for trade.
- Flagship projects like Salima Sugar Biochar (600,000 tonnes feedstock, $70M revenue by 2030).
