As a French SARL based on the Mediterranean coast, Ecofrontiers is embedded in the region’s ReFi ecosystem. We are one of the founding members of **ReFi Provence**, a community led by Alejandra Verde that works to expand the reach of ReFi initiatives across Provence and beyond.\n\nEcofrontiers is writing the [Green Crypto Handbook](https://cosmic-move-29b.notion.site/The-Green-Crypto-Handbook-10c874bd4c32803e8494eebd005cc303?pvs=4), a 350-page research and advocacy effort to shape the future of green crypto asset design. The Handbook highlights practical solutions for leveraging blockchain technology to produce and scale **natural capital and green crypto-assets**, and aims to **educate policymakers, impact investors, and ReFi entrepreneurs** on the opportunities of Web3 for ecological impact.\n\nWe’ve published three sample chapters accessible to all for free on Mirror: \n- [Protocol Layer: How Institutions Structure Their Networks](https://mirror.xyz/ecofrontiers.eth/sutitG7HsFz74mwXUokmo11GQtjM5GpGFzHAlbaww-o)\n- [Asset Layer: The Market Object of Protocols](https://mirror.xyz/ecofrontiers.eth/zkh2LoADInAgr7GLbXnsuUOEcwJKFE4GuUSYuYU22io)\n- [Market Layer: Thriving in the Open Liquidity Environment](https://mirror.xyz/ecofrontiers.eth/z53KLf1agwjNSQrAY78Zg4qm9-FYZB2Yh3TDj3ojIRM)\n\nIn the past, we also have conducted **research that is more specific to the Mediterranean bioregion**, including a cryptoeconomic framework for the protection and regeneration of **Posidonia Oceanica meadows and reefs**, a keystone species crucial for coastal biodiversity and carbon sequestration:\n\n- [The Cryptoeconomic Neptune](https://blog.curvelabs.eu/the-cryptoeconomic-neptune-a96e3d7d9ff3)\n- [New Breath in the Mediterranean](https://medium.com/curve-labs/new-breath-in-the-mediterranean-35d881d094ae)\n\n[View project on KarmaGAP](https://gap.karmahq.xyz/project/ecofrontiers)\n\n### **Grant Purpose & Outputs**\n\nWith support from this grant, we will:\n\n- **Advance the Green Crypto Handbook**: Conduct editorial work to finalize and publish the book, making it a key resource for policymakers and ReFi practitioners. As of today, we are on the last chapter.\n- **Support the Growth of ReFi Provence**: Expand outreach, education, and participate in local ReFi events to connect more Mediterranean regenerative projects with Web3 opportunities.\n\n### **Resources**\n\n📚 [Website](https://ecofrontiers.xyz/)\n📝 [Blog](https://mirror.xyz/ecofrontiers.eth)\n🐦 [X](https://x.com/ecofrontiers)\n", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectTwitter": "ecofrontiers"}
