The startup announced that they are making use of the Algorand blockchain. They intend to do that in their fight to reduce the carbon emission. Using the architecture, they want to help other firms contribute to achieving CO2 neutrality.
According to Francisco Benedito, who is the CEO, they want to design Algorand on a steady and flexible architecture that allows fewer fees for transactions but significant improvements for scalability.
Algorand, which is the first open source in the world, had tweeted this on the development.
Today, Algorand ranks close to the 50th largest cryptocurrency project. The value of the project is around $400 million, with ALGO token trading for $0.34 in the crypto market. Climatetrade was founded in 2016 and lets firms reduce their carbon footprint using carbon credits.
