🤝Trading Your Plots

Your plots, your choice!

Users can trade and sell their plots with one another as they so choose. The non-fungible yet liquid nature of plots allows for both long-term holding potential and speculation regarding a plot's potential aftermarket value at a future point. Relinquishing ownership of your owned plots impacts how the offset carbon accrues to your Eco Profile.

Suppose a given plot contains 365 tons of carbon per year for ease of calculation. This plot will accrue 1 ton of carbon to the owner's Eco Profile each day. If this user decides to sell their plot, the offset carbon will stop accruing to their profile and begin accruing to the purchaser's Eco Profile. This configuration presents users with the decision to hold their plots and continue to level up their sustainability or sell their plots on the open market, likely for a profit.

Additionally, the transferability of plots introduces a time premium for plots based on their remaining offset period. For example, a plot offset for 100 years will naturally command a higher premium than a plot offset for one year. A buyer will find a plot offset for 100 years more valuable due to the carbon footprint already offset and the guaranteed ownership for a longer period. However, buyers of plots with shorter offset periods retain the right to extend their purchased plots' offset period at their discretion. This diversity in variables presents users with nearly endless opportunities for speculation regarding the potential future value of their plots!
