ReFi – Regenerative Finance: In the interest of achieving global climate goals, legislators have identified the financial market as a key means of channelling funds into sustainable projects and investments. At the same time, blockchain technology, Web 3.0 and digitalisation are critical tools that can help create an entirely new, sustainable financial sector. Potential applications range from CO₂ certificates in token form and tokenised “green bonds” to decentralised lending platforms and decentralised exchanges offering an independent, decentralised monetary system.
