key challenges
onchain communities seek meaningful real-world impact but struggle to find verified, transparent investments in natural capital that align with web3 values.
lack of real-world backing
most digital assets lack tangible real-world value, limiting their utility for communities seeking genuine impact.
verification gaps
claims about environmental impact are often unverifiable, creating trust issues for transparent communities.
coordination overhead
bridging onchain governance with offchain natural asset management requires infrastructure most DAOs lack.
value capture
traditional impact investments don't provide the onchain liquidity, composability, and governance integration web3 communities expect.
how ensurance helps
invest treasury funds in verified natural assets through ERC-20 and ERC-1155 instruments with full onchain transparency
deploy AI agents (ERC-721/6551) that autonomously manage natural capital positions and report to token holders
access real-time MRV data feeds that prove ecosystem service delivery and enable onchain governance of impact
create DAO-native natural capital strategies using syndicates, vaults, and tokenbound accounts
build new coordination mechanisms that align token holder incentives with ecological outcomes

community-owned forests
an onchain community pools capital to acquire and protect forests through ensurance, with agents autonomously managing stewardship and reporting to NFT holders.
regenerative rewards
a DeFi protocol integrates ensurance instruments into yield strategies, allowing users to earn while funding nature—with ecosystem health metrics affecting APY.
onchain nature collective
multiple DAOs form an ensurance syndicate creating the largest onchain-governed natural capital fund, with transparent voting on which ecosystems to protect.
