PERL.Eco

PERL.eco is a decentralized finance (DeFi) project focused on combating climate change by tokenizing ecological assets, primarily carbon credits (pCO2). The platform allows users to offset their carbon footprint using blockchain technology. The ecosystem is governed by the PERL token, which allows holders to vote on key decisions within the DAO. The project has also introduced products like onePERL, a stable-value governance token, and has undergone a "PERL Burn-Merge" campaign to transition token holders to new DeFi opportunities.

Description

PERL.eco is a decentralized finance (DeFi) project that leverages blockchain technology to address climate change and promote ecological assets. Its core focus is the tokenization of carbon credits into pCO2 tokens, where each token represents 1kg of CO2e backed by a project on the Verra registry, allowing individuals and entities to transparently offset their carbon footprint on-chain. The ecosystem is governed by its community through the PERL token, which functions as a governance token for the project's DAO. PERL.eco has developed several products, including onePERL, a stable-value token backed by USDC and PERL for use in grants and as collateral, and has previously run a "PERL Burn-Merge" campaign to transition its community to new DeFi projects. The project provides extensive documentation on its tokenomics, including guides for acquiring, bridging, and providing liquidity for its assets across networks like Ethereum and Polygon.
