🌍 KlimaDAO Japan is gearing up to launch a new marketplace for carbon credits, in partnership with the Progmat stablecoin platform. The goal? To explore carbon credit trading using Progmat's stablecoin. 🚀

This move could see the KlimaDAO Japan Market trading J-Credits carbon credits, which debuted on the Tokyo Stock Exchange last month. If all goes well, we might see a global expansion on Carbonmark, where KlimaDAO is already making waves. 🌊

Now, the carbon credit market might not be the biggest fish in the sea just yet, but it's predicted to reach a whopping $172.9 billion by 2030, with Japan contributing $1.9 billion. 💰

So, what's next? Phase 2, where JPYC will be registered as an electronic payment method, and Mitsubishi UFJ gears up to play coin trustee. Phase 3 will see the start of overseas trading and support for other financial institutions and companies to develop their own marketplaces.

🎨Yuga Labs, the NFT bigwig, is stepping back from the CryptoPunks project after a "woke" backlash from the crypto community over its new Super Punk World collection.
