Klima 2.0 Defines Five User Groups for Carbon Market Infrastructure
Klima 2.0 outlines five distinct participant categories for its carbon market infrastructure: **Carbon suppliers** (project developers and traders) receive a predictable, rules-based route to market with clear execution terms and no opaque spreads. **Carbon buyers** access verified retirements with transparent pricing. Credits cannot be resold—retirement is permanent, ensuring environmental claims remain auditable. **Coordinators** (kVCM and K2 participants) signal preferences that shape execution conditions within fixed bounds, enabling distributed decision-making without centralized control. **Liquidity providers** maintain continuous protocol access through open markets, ensuring reliable entry and exit without embedding carbon in automated market makers. **Builders and integrators** can develop against open-source smart contracts and APIs to embed carbon functionality into workflows. All groups operate under identical rules. The system aims to coordinate different interests without collapsing them into a single financial abstraction.
