Porini Foundation Nature Collectibles is an initiative by the Swiss-based Porini Foundation that leverages blockchain technology to create a sustainable funding model for nature conservation. The project aims to connect a global community of collectors with real-world conservation efforts, providing a transparent and direct way to support the protection of endangered species and their habitats.
At the core of the initiative are Nature Collectibles, which are unique digital representations of a species, also known as NFTs for Conservation (NFTCs). Each collectible is a "digital twin" of a real animal and is linked to a specific, on-the-ground conservation project in a protected area. These digital assets can be purchased, collected, and traded through a dedicated mobile app. One hundred percent of the proceeds from the initial sale of a Nature Collectible go directly to the conservation actors in the field, with the Porini Foundation covering all transaction fees.
The entire Nature Collectibles ecosystem is built on the Hedera network. The Hedera Token Service (HTS) is used to mint the NFTs, ensuring their uniqueness and providing a secure and transparent record of ownership. All transactions are recorded on the Hedera public ledger, allowing donors to see their contributions in real-time.
