Our History and Vision

Elemints X was founded with a clear mission: to democratise access to carbon markets while making a significant contribution to global climate protection. What began as an innovative idea has grown into a leading platform for tokenised CO₂ certificates.

From Idea to Innovation

The founding story of Elemints X begins with the realization of a fundamental problem: while CO₂ certificates offer enormous potential for climate protection and as an asset class, this market has traditionally been reserved for large corporations and institutional investors. Private individuals and smaller companies had hardly any opportunity to take part in this important and growing market.

Our founder, Rene Rudzinski, brings extensive experience from the financial sector and specific expertise in CO₂ certificates and tokenised real assets. His vision was to harness the transformative power of blockchain technology to make this exclusive market accessible to everyone.

In 2023, Elemints X was founded with the aim of turning this vision into reality. After intensive research and development, building a global network of partners, and securing strategically important forest areas on three continents, we now present our innovative solution: AirX Carbon Units.

Our Values and Principles

At Elemints X, every decision is guided by clear values and principles:

Integrity and Transparency

We are committed to the highest integrity and complete transparency in every aspect of our operations. All our projects are real, verifiable, and open to visits. We fully document our activities and make this information available to our clients and independent auditors.

Scientific Foundation

All our decisions and actions rest on a solid scientific basis. We work closely with research institutions, stay up to date with the latest developments in climate science, and continuously integrate scientific findings into our projects and processes.

Ecological and Social Responsibility

We regard climate protection as part of a broader commitment to ecological and social sustainability. Our projects are designed not only to capture CO₂ but also to promote biodiversity, strengthen ecosystem services and support local communities. We aim for positive impacts across every dimension of sustainability.

Customer orientation and economic viability

We believe climate protection must be economically attractive to achieve wide-ranging impact. Therefore, we place great emphasis on cost efficiency and tangible financial benefits for our clients. Our goal is to make climate protection an integral component of successful business strategies.

Our innovation: tokenisation of CO₂ certificates

Elemints X is at the forefront of a revolutionary development—the fusion of CO₂ certificates with blockchain technology. This innovation fundamentally transforms the traditional CO₂-certificate market, making it more accessible, efficient and transparent.

The challenges of the traditional CO₂ market

The conventional market for CO₂ certificates faces several structural challenges:

High entry barriers: The market is virtually inaccessible to individuals and smaller businesses, because certificates can generally be purchased only in large quantities and with high minimum investment amounts
Lack of transparency:: The origin and quality of CO₂ certificates is often difficult to trace, which undermines trust and willingness to invest.
Inefficient processes: Trading in traditional CO₂ certificates is often associated with considerable administrative effort, high transaction costs, and long settlement times.
Limited liquidity: The CO₂-certificate market is fragmented and offers limited liquidity, making it hard for investors to enter and exit.

Our blockchain solution

Our innovative solution leverages blockchain technology to overcome these challenges:

Democratisation of access: Tokenisation enables anyone to invest in CO₂ certificates with small amounts.
Complete transparency:: The blockchain provides an immutable and transparent record of all transactions. Every token is directly linked to a specific CO₂ certificate whose origin, verification and ownership can be traced at any time.
Efficiency and speed: Blockchain-based transactions reduce administrative processes, lower transaction costs and enable near-instant settlements—an enormous leap over traditional systems.
Increased liquidity: By creating a standardised, tokenised asset we boost market liquidity and make trading CO₂ certificates significantly easier.

Technical implementation

Our Carbonium token is built on a modern, energy-efficient blockchain infrastructure that ensures both security and scalability:

Energy-efficient blockchain: Unlike energy-intensive cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, our token uses an eco-friendly blockchain technology that operates with minimal energy consumption.
Smart contracts: Automated smart contracts ensure compliant execution of all transactions and the correct linkage between tokens and CO₂ certificates.
Interoperability: Our solution is designed to interact with other blockchain ecosystems and traditional financial systems, easing integration into existing infrastructures.
Security and compliance: We implement the highest security standards and ensure compliance with relevant regulations to safeguard the trust of our investors.

Our Environmental Commitment: Beyond CO₂ Sequestration

Our dedication goes far beyond pure CO₂ capture. We pursue a holistic approach that equally considers biodiversity, ecosystem services and social aspects.

Biodiversity Promotion

All our projects are designed to actively foster biological diversity:

Mixed-Forest Approach: Instead of monocultures, we rely on diverse mixed forests with native and site-adapted species that support a rich ecosystem.

Creation of Varied Habitats: By shaping structurally rich forests with deadwood elements, glades, wetlands and multi-layered forest edges, we create diverse habitats for a wide range of species.

Targeted Species-Protection Measures: In many of our projects we implement specific actions to protect endangered animal and plant species, such as installing nesting boxes, establishing wildlife corridors or safeguarding special habitats.

Invasive Species Management: We control and reduce invasive species that could threaten natural biodiversity.

Ecosystem Services

Our forest projects generate a wide range of ecosystem services that go far beyond CO₂ sequestration:

Water Protection: The forests we manage play an important role in filtering and storing water, shielding areas from floods and preserving water quality.

Soil Protection: By fostering healthy forest soils, we help prevent erosion, improve soil structure and maintain fertility.

Pollinator Protection: Many of our measures support pollinating insects that are critical for agriculture and natural ecosystems.

Climate Regulation: Our forests contribute to climate protection not only through CO₂ storage but also by regulating local temperature, humidity and wind.

Social Projects and Local Communities

We are convinced that successful environmental protection can only be achieved together with local people:

Local Employment: We create jobs in rural regions and prefer to work with local professionals and service providers.

Capacity Building: Through training and knowledge transfer we strengthen local expertise in sustainable forestry and conservation.

Cooperation with Indigenous Communities: In regions with indigenous populations, such as the Amazon, we work closely with these communities, respect their rights and traditional knowledge, and integrate this into our projects.

Educational Programmes: We run environmental education programmes for schools and communities to raise awareness of the importance of forests and climate protection.

Market Forecasts and Potential

The market for CO₂ certificates is poised for unprecedented growth:

Exponential Market Growth

Current analyses forecast the CO₂ market to expand from about US$ 669 million in 2024 to over US$ 16 trillion by 2034—an increase of more than 24 000-fold.

Price Increases

Experts expect CO₂ prices to rise from an average of $75 per tonne today to $150–200 by 2035, with potential for even higher prices in specific market segments.

Regulatory Drivers

Tightening climate targets in the EU and other regions will further boost demand for CO₂ certificates as more sectors are included in emissions-trading systems.

Voluntary Market

In addition to the regulated market, the voluntary market is also growing rapidly, driven by companies’ increasing commitments to climate neutrality and sustainable business practices.

At Elemints X we are not merely building a company; we are part of a larger movement toward a more sustainable, equitable and technologically advanced world in which economic success and environmental responsibility go hand in hand.
