Klima Protocol launches kVCM as an automated carbon portfolio index

The new system automatically mints or burns kVCM tokens when carbon credits enter or exit the protocol, maintaining system balance.​

Key mechanics:

  • Token supply adjusts based on protocol holdings and voter-assigned importance
  • Each kVCM represents a weighted slice of the entire carbon portfolio
  • Market cap directly ties to Net Asset Value of underlying carbon assets

This creates a programmable carbon index where one unit of carbon movement shifts kVCM supply proportionally to its portfolio weight.​
