🌱 𝐌𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐈𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 ⛏️ Earlier this year, PayPal’s Blockchain Research Group, in a strategic collaboration with Energy Web and DMG Blockchain Solutions proposed an incentive mechanism to encourage Bitcoin miners to use low-carbon energy sources. The so-called Green Mining Initiative (GMI) joins other initiatives that are working on similar concepts to mitigate climate impacts of Bitcoin mining operations. We at CCRI took a closer look at the GMI and summarized our findings in a short report. - In the report, we provide a framework to determine the climate impact of the GMI through these three different lenses as the GMI has implications for individual Bitcoin users’ GHG inventories, the Bitcoin network’s total carbon footprint, and potentially total global emissions. - We conclude that the GMI offers an effective tool to incentivize miners that already use clean energy sources and support others to switch from fossil to clean energy sources. - For GMI users, the initiative yields immediate impact in corporate or individual GHG accounts. - The impact of the GMI to accelerate overall Bitcoin network decarbonization and global net climate benefit depends on additional parameters such as the adoption rate of the GMI.

Ever wondered about the energy use and carbon impact of the Solana blockchain? Look no further than the Solana Foundation’s recently released Solana Energy Use Report for 2024. This report offers a deep dive into the Solana blockchain’s energy consumption and carbon impact — Here’s a few highlights: • Carbon footprint down by 69% since last year’s report (December 2023), now at 2,671 tCO2 • Energy per transaction: 0.00412 Wh, roughly on par with a single Google search • Projected 2024 energy use: Just 8,484 MWh — roughly equivalent to 808 American homes It also delves into sustainability initiatives by the ecosystem, including: • Industry-first, public-facing real-time Solana emissions dashboard maintained by Crypto Carbon Ratings Institute (CCRI) (recently made MiCA-compliant) • Purchases of carbon credits from ecoToken and biodiversity credits from Terrasos by the Solana Foundation, which help with reforestation efforts around the globe. For example, Terrasos biodiversity credits go towards helping preserve and restore 10 square meters of ecologically sensitive rainforest in Colombia for up to 30 years. • Ecosystem projects leveraging Solana for environmental causes. For example: GainForest uses Solana to manage and track donations towards reforestation efforts, while Sunrise Stake empowers users to donate staking rewards as carbon offsets Whether you're a blockchain developer, an environmental tech enthusiast, or a curious professional, this report provides a balanced blend of depth and accessibility.

CCRI in Berlin 🐻 I spent the last two days in Germany's capital, participating in two awesome events! First, the Web3 Summit, organized by the Web3 Foundation was a great event to meet old and new friends at the Funkhaus Berlin, a truly awesome event location. Especially I am grateful to meet Pietro Danzi in person again, 7 years after we won a blockchain hackathon together 🎉. Second, I was invited to participate in the MiCA round table series organized by Dr. Nina-Luisa Siedler and Mariana de la Roche, bringing practitioners and regulators at a table and discussing nuances and implications of the MiCAR. I highly enjoyed the open and honest debate under Chatham House rules, allowing anyone to freely share their thoughts without later attribution outside of the round table. Thanks again to all the participants; we at Crypto Carbon Ratings Institute look forward to the next one!

The past few months have been super busy, and it took us until mid-August to pause and reflect on our success in H1 2024. With a few weeks of summer warmth still ahead, we’re gearing up for the final phase this fall before MiCA comes into application this December. A big thank you to the Crypto Carbon Ratings Institute (CCRI) team for your dedication and energy. Here’s to continued success as we move forward together! 🚀 #SummerCelebration #TeamSuccess #2024Goals #MidYearCelebration
