The proposed plan will take three phases and it’s expected to be completed within 18 months.
- The first phase will be aimed at assessing the carbon generated through cryptocurrency trading, deposits. As well as, the withdrawal activities on all Crypto.com’s platforms (which includes the app, exchange, NFT, DeFi, and Crypto.org Chain).
- The second phase is expected to detect the most effective ways to offset the carbon generated. It will utilize the support of accredited organizations with specialty in offsetting and sequestration of carbon.
- The third phase assesses the carbon generated through business activities conducted by Crypto.com that exclude trading. They include activities such as marketing activities, workplace services, business travel, etc.
After completing the assessment, the figures will be added into Crypto.com’s carbon offsetting and sequestration program which will reportedly offset more carbon than what’s generated.
Besides, a third-party auditor will be required to offer accountability to Crypto.com’s customers and the broader public.
