In this episode of Crypto Altruists, host Drew Simon interviews Djimo Serodio, founder of Sylvie, and Jon Ruth, co-founder of the Climate Coordination Network, about the Bioregional Reforestation Grants Round. They discuss how the initiative uses Web3 to fund and verify ecological restoration, moving resources faster and more transparently to local communities. The conversation covers the concept of bioregional finance, the selection of specific bioregions for the grant, and the on-chain funding mechanisms, including quadratic funding and smart contract wallets. They also explore the decentralized MRV (Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification) system, which ensures transparent tracking of reforestation efforts and incentivizes ecological action. The guests emphasize the potential for this model to scale and transform global climate finance by connecting funders directly to impactful projects and collateralizing nature through tokenized real-world assets.
