Radical Transparency.
Institutional Trust.
The Orchid Protocol solves the 'black box' problem of carbon markets by combining space-age monitoring with ground-level auditing and on-chain verification.
VCS Registry Integration
Our projects follow the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) by Verra, ensuring every credit is anchored to the world's most rigorous GHG program.
Remote Sensing (dMRV)
We use Sentinel-2 and LiDAR data to monitor canopy height and biomass density with sub-meter precision in near real-time.
On-Chain Provenance
Every credit is tokenized as a Project Pack NFT, creating an immutable, cryptographically secure audit trail from site to retirement.
Beyond the
Annual Audit.
Traditional carbon credits rely on expensive, infrequent physical audits that are prone to human error. Orchid's dMRV (digital Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification) framework provides a continuous stream of integrity data.
Dynamic Baselines
We use AI to model 'what-if' scenarios, ensuring that sequestration is truly additional and not just a result of regional trends.
Registry Anchoring
Every Project Pack NFT contains a direct hash of the VCS registry serial numbers, preventing any possibility of double-counting.
NDVI, SAR, and LiDAR canopy models.
Biomass & soil carbon estimation.
Decentralized evidence storage.
Cryptographic proof of impact.
The Digital Evidence Chain.
Every gram of carbon represented by BCGOLD is backed by a verifiable digital twin. Our pipeline ensures that monitoring data is immutable and accessible to any auditor at any time.
"By decentralizing the verification evidence, we eliminate single points of failure and ensure that the impact remains verifiable even if the original project developer is no longer present."
Auditable to the Last Gram.
Orchid doesn't just promise impact; we prove it. Every BCGOLD token is part of an unbreakable chain of custody that spans from a physical mangrove root in Kenya to a cryptographically signed transaction on Base.
Open Source Verification
Raw monitoring data is stored on IPFS, allowing any university, NGO, or auditor to independently verify our biomass calculations.
Fractional Retirement
Our system allows for the retirement of even small amounts of carbon, making climate impact accessible to everyone, not just corporations.
