Disclosures
Important information about how Blue Carbon Gold operates. We believe transparency starts with clear communication about what we do and don't promise.
Terminology
Regeneration Receipt: A record of tranche participation. Receipts are not project-specific. They record your contribution amount, timestamp, and tranche reference. They are used for entitlement computation.
Project Pack: A project-specific allocation measured in hectares. Packs are issued only after a project's first audit is verified by a third-party registry (e.g., Verra VCS). Packs represent verified restoration, not promised outcomes.
Yield Profile: The expected carbon sequestration rate (tCO2e per hectare per year) recorded from verified audit data. Yield profiles are displayed as references, not guarantees of future issuance.
Index Token (BCGOLD): A fungible token representing proportional ownership in the BCG pool. Minted when packs are deposited. The token tracks pool composition and ratio snapshots.
Verification & Data Sources
Project data, audit milestones, and issuance timelines are sourced from third-party registries (primarily Verra VCS). Blue Carbon Gold does not conduct its own verification — we display and reference verified data from external sources.
Registry references (project IDs) are displayed on project pages for independent verification. We recommend verifying project data directly with the relevant registry.
Governance
Governance intent (proposals and votes) and governance execution (actions taken) are always logged separately. This separation ensures accountability and prevents conflation of community intent with administrative action.
Governance outcomes are advisory. The platform team executes actions based on governance results but retains operational discretion for legal and regulatory compliance.
Risks
Nature-based carbon projects carry inherent risks including project underperformance, delayed verification, registry changes, and force majeure events (storms, disease, policy changes).
Projected delivery and pricing scenarios are estimates based on current models and are not guaranteed. Actual outcomes depend on project performance, credit pricing, and market conditions.
Contributions to tranches are not deposits, loans, or purchases of securities. Please review the Terms of Service for the full legal framework.
Transparency Commitment
We publish pool composition, ratio snapshots, project status updates, and governance records as public transparency surfaces. This data is available to all users and does not require authentication to view.
The execution log (when available) will record all administrative and governance actions with timestamps and proof references.
