Commodity Tokenization — Gold, Carbon Credits, and Renewable Energy Certificates on Blockchain
Physical commodities (gold, silver, oil) and environmental credits (carbon, RECs) are being tokenized at scale. Here is the technical architecture that distinguishes real commodity tokens from marketing claims. A genuine commodity token must satisfy: (1) the underlying commodity actually exists and is held by a trusted...

A carbon credit represents 1 metric ton of CO2 equivalent avoided or removed (e.g., a forest conservation project). A REC represents 1 MWh of renewable electricity generation. Both are environmental commodities, but they address different sustainability claims: carbon credits offset direct emissions; RECs support claims of renewable electricity use.
