mintBlue and Sumthing partner to bring transparency to social initiatives

mintBlue, a Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS) platform, has joined forces with Sumthing, a trailblazer in connecting organizations to nature restoration projects. Together, they aim to bring unprecedented transparency to impact initiatives. By leveraging blockchain technology, they strive to address the critical need for accountability and trust in nature restoration.

The lack of transparency and accuracy in carbon crediting initiatives has cast a shadow on nature restoration projects. In response, mintBlue has taken a proactive approach by introducing a public data protocol that enables collaborative work on nature restoration. This innovative solution empowers initiatives to collaborate on a shared public platform, where ecosystem actors can work together to share projects and restore nature while ensuring transparent order processing and fulfilment.

"mintBlue demonstrated how the blockchain can enhance trust," expressed Gijs Schuringa, Chief Commercial Officer of Sumthing. "Sumthing's mission is to make nature restoration accessible, engaging, and meaningful for everyone. Building trust throughout the customer journey is one of our core promises. Through our collaboration with mintBlue, individuals can now transparently contribute to nature restoration projects without dealing with the complexities of the underlying blockchain."

The partnership with Sumthing holds immense significance for mintBlue's services. The mintBlue protocol offers a comprehensive solution for social initiatives, enabling them to address data challenges and create a transparent ecosystem by leveraging the blockchain.

To unlock the full potential of the public blockchain, mintBlue adopted a "protocol thinking" approach, ensuring that it is not a one-off implementation. The public protocol is now accessible for anyone to collaborate on sourcing and fulfilling nature restoration projects. mintBlue provides easy access and utilization of the public blockchain's protocol, fostering interoperability between stakeholders and ensuring a verifiably ecological footprint.

Integrating the nature restoration protocol is made simple, requiring just a few clicks to include it within e-commerce checkouts, software-as-a-service (SAAS) platforms, or transaction processors. This user-friendly approach enables initiatives to reach their impact goals while providing tangible proof of their authentic contributions.

"We are excited to partner with Sumthing in our shared mission to bring transparency," stated Niels van den Bergh, CEO of mintBlue. "Our protocol empowers initiatives to meet the critical need for accountability and trust in social initiatives. By harnessing the power of blockchain, we can make a significant impact on nature restoration efforts."

This partnership also underscores mintBlue's commitment to environmental sustainability. The underlying blockchain protocol utilized by mintBlue ensures transparency and accountability while consuming significantly less energy compared to other blockchains. By showcasing the potential of blockchain technology in nature restoration projects, mintBlue and Sumthing aspire to inspire other initiatives to embrace the blockchain, fostering a more transparent and sustainable future.
