MetaCompany Successfully Completes Initial Cross-Border Transaction Utilizing CNT® Carbon-Backed Cryptocurrency
MetaComp, a subsidiary of Alpha Ladder Group, has made a significant stride in the realm of green finance by executing the first real-world cross-border payment using its patented CNT® Carbon Stablecoin framework. This groundbreaking transaction marked a step towards faster, cheaper, and more efficient cross-border payments, while also promoting sustainability and transparency.
The CNT® Carbon Stablecoin is a blockchain-based system that converts verified carbon reduction activities into programmable, carbon-backed stablecoins. Each stablecoin is issued only against certified emission reductions and is tracked using Alpha Ladder’s Non-Fungible Digital Twin (NFDT®) technology for full auditability and transparency. This makes the CNT® Carbon Stablecoin a carbon-negative intermediary by design.
In practice, MetaComp demonstrated the framework’s real-world application by executing a same-day settlement from Euros (EUR) to offshore Chinese Yuan (CNH). This transaction bypassed traditional intermediaries and their operating hours, significantly accelerating settlement times from several business days to less than a day.
The sustainability impact of the CNT® Carbon Stablecoin is built-in, as each stablecoin embeds documented and verifiable carbon reduction value. This direct link between digital currency and climate-positive actions is a testament to MetaComp's commitment to environmental responsibility. The system also democratises issuance, allowing any country with an established carbon registry to participate, thereby enabling wider, transparent access to green finance globally.
Key real-world impacts of the CNT® Carbon Stablecoin include:
- Faster, cheaper, and more efficient cross-border payments by eliminating multiple intermediaries and delays inherent in traditional finance.
- Embedded sustainability, as every transaction uses carbon credits verified through audited projects, contributing to net-zero goals and global carbon footprint reduction.
- Regulatory alignment and market adaptability, with the framework designed to address complexities of global climate commitments like Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and the Paris Agreement’s Article 6.
Tin Pei Ling, Co-President of MetaComp, stated that sustainable cross-border payments are not a future concept but are here today. Alpha Ladder Group continues to advance its mission of Digital Green Transformation with Technologies, building an interoperable financial infrastructure that makes global transactions faster, greener, and more inclusive.
The early CNT® carbon stablecoin was backed by Chinese Certified Emission Reduction (CCER) carbon credits, generated from a wind power project in Zhangjiakou City, co-host of the 2022 Winter Olympics. As MetaComp continues to innovate and adapt, the potential for the CNT® Carbon Stablecoin framework to revolutionise the financial industry and promote sustainability is immense.
