This is a no-brainer. Absolutely in favor.
KIP-11: TCO2 conversion
Definitely in favor for this. Couple of suggestions:
- Formalizing the working group of carbon experts in the DAO
- Focus on a proactive approach rather than reactive when it comes to redeeming for TCO2s, we should be reading the market and taking out TCO2 based on market trends rather than just waiting for Toucan or others to announce
- We will need some way to account for any TCO2s held in the treasury when looking at treasury value and backing. Suggested to peg it to BCT price at least initially so treasury value is retained until a new carbon pool comes
So much yes! Also agree with MR-MR-MR that it would likely be in Klima's interests to pro-actively arbitrage if the opportunity presents itself in any case. Ie if someone pools into BCT something that could be pooled in NCT. This mandate should extend to all future assets that have redeemal functions.
About the restrictions -
Re: 3) I personally don't see a particular reason why the maximum limit is strictly necessary. Basically backing will be maintained even if the credits are in TCO2 form. Also if you don't do it at significant scale you still might run into a race with other arbitrageurs catching wind of the situation.
Re: 4) Would probably be nice to include a specified timeframe in the mandate and not "at an undefined later time"

Do it.
Yes sir!
In Toucans NCT release post, they noted how redemption of BCT or NCT for TCO2 will result in a 10% holdback. I think that should be considered. Essentially we are sending 10% of the value to Toucan.

No second thought given. Go for it. What are you waiting for?
greevesie this is a recent development and right now will only apply to NCT and future pools - Toucan has assured us they would work together with us prior to implementing a contract upgrade to enable this redemption fee for BCT
Heavily in favour

This ain't work for me!
100% IN FAVOUR!
Makes a lot of sense!

100% agreed, another post highlighting the carbon experts will come out soon, and this team should be inclusive (e.g anyone can join if they have the proper qualifications)

Agreed.
We put 10% as the limit to reduce powers as a fail-safe. In the future, this may be automated, and may allow us to lift the limits. Worst case, we can do multiple batches of 10%!

Agree with this, we'll clarify with the timeframe after more discussion with the partnership/carbon team.

Will this affect somehow to price of on-chain carbon tons? Positively, negativity or not at all? Thank you.
Also wider range of assets brings up more "instruments/products" to be used for offseting emissions. That could bring up arbitrary opportunitys and tailored products for offsetters (more marketing opportunitys).
