15% of all primary sales will be allocated to the PP Fund, which aims to offset CO2 emissions resulting from minting and primary sales. But that's not all.

Roadmap 1.0

Self-Sustainability
The second objective is fundamental: offsetting the CO2 emissions resulting from secondary sales. While the pollution from primary sales can be easily calculated, secondary sales cannot be predicted in advance because NFT owners can sell at any time. However, founders can track when sales occur, primarily through public registries and royalties. This phase will be continuously updated and monitored. By implementing environmentally friendly practices and investing in carbon offsetting projects, the project aims to achieve net-zero CO2 emissions. Achieving this milestone is extraordinary, as no one has ever compensated for the CO2 emissions resulting from secondary sales before!

The Numbers
It's estimated that an average NFT will produce 211kg of CO2 emissions during the creation and purchase process. In addition to the CO2 emissions from minting and primary sales mentioned earlier, secondary NFT sales also contribute significantly to carbon emissions. On average, the sale of an NFT emits 51kg of CO2 (equivalent to 0.85 trees), and each transfer of ownership emits 30kg (equivalent to 0.5 trees). Therefore, every secondary sale of an NFT emits 81kg of CO2 (equivalent to 1.35 trees).

Offset the CO2 emissions from the minting of the entire collection.

Mission
Prickly Portraits aims to lead the way in the world of NFTs with an ambitious and unprecedented project. The goal is transform NFTs from a source of pollution into a sustainable solution, it is the first NFT collection of its kind in the world.The revolution has begun!

Vision
The project's vision is to inspire others in the NFT world to follow our example and adopt sustainable practices. We aim to be a beacon of hope for a sector often criticized for its environmental impact, demonstrating that it's possible to reconcile digital innovation with protecting and benefiting the environment.

Offset Minting and Primary Sales
The first objective is to reduce the environmental impact generated by the minting of the collection itself. The pollution produced by adding any NFT to a blockchain equates to around 83kg of CO2 (or 1.38 trees). For a collection of 10,000 NFTs, this equals 830,000 kg of CO2. Additionally, every time a bid is submitted for an NFT, it emits 23kg of CO2 (or 0.38 trees), every sale of an NFT produces 51kg of CO2 (or 0.85 trees), and every transfer of an NFT emits 30kg of CO2 (or 0.5 trees). Since planting all these trees immediately is impossible, the quickest solution to achieve zero emissions at this stage is to invest part of the capital in the purchase of certified carbon credits.

NFT owners will have the opportunity to plant a tree! Each tree can be given a name or gifted for special occasions such as graduations, births, anniversaries, birthdays, or any other significant event. All trees will be recorded in a public registry, including geolocation data, photos, updates on the agroforestry project, and the current state of the trees. Transparency and accountability are the cornerstones of our collection. These trees will become part of our community forest and will play a crucial role in Roadmap 2.0.

NFT Owner Benefits

Once the goal of achieving net-zero pollution has been reached, the mission will continue by expanding efforts to provide ongoing environmental benefits through ecosystem conservation and restoration initiatives. This will involve activities such as tree planting, biodiversity protection, and environmental awareness campaigns. Additionally, a forest will be donated to the community.
