New eco-friendly blockchain protocol IMPT is racing through its presale and has now sold almost $12 million of tokens in less than a month.
In fact, it sold out its $11 million phase 1 allocation in just three weeks – four weeks ahead of schedule as investors raced to take up a position in the project.
IMPT is now in stage 2 of its 3-stage presale phase, with tokens on sale for $0.023 each.
What is IMPT?
IMPT is a new green crypto project that aims to help fight one of mankind’s biggest issues – the climate crisis – and one of the best new cryptos to buy this year.
The protocol will use blockchain technology to help its users fight global warming in a variety of ways, by improving their carbon-offsetting efforts.
IMPT will make carbon credits fully tradeable for individuals and businesses, as well as allow its users to earn carbon credits while shopping.
IMPT will also utilize blockchain technology to make carbon credit trading more transparent and reduce fraud.

What are Carbon Credits and How Does IMPT Work?
Carbon credits are a permit that allow companies to emit a certain amount of greenhouse gas into the atmosphere.
One carbon credit is equal to one tonne of carbon dioxide, and while prices vary and the total voluntary carbon market is currently worth around $2 billion annually, it is set to explode in the next decade and, according to Bloomberg, could be worth up to $100 billion by 2030.
Carbon credits in turn fund thousands of conservation projects around the world and although they currently sell for an average of $4, could eventually sell for triple figures.
On IMPT, users of the protocol will be able to directly buy, sell, hold, or even retire – take them permanently off the market in exchange for an NFT – carbon credits from the market.
Not only will that users reduce their carbon footprint, but IMPT is developing a ledger to reduce fraudulent activities.
With the blockchain fully transparent and traceable, activities such as double counting – where two companies claim the use of the same carbon credit – will be stopped.
IMPT users can also earn carbon credits by doing their usual shopping.
Retailers can choose how much of the percentage of sale goes towards shoppers earning IMPT tokens, which can then be converted to carbon credits.
Not only will this directly improve carbon offsetting efforts, but shoppers can make greener choices by choosing retailers and brands that return a higher percentage.
Major retailers such as LEGO, Microsoft, and Amazon are already partnered with IMPT.
