Insetting is a cycle, not a transaction
Each completed turn adds liquidity, tightens price discovery and makes the next green tonne cheaper to finance.
Unlike offsetting, insetting is not a one-off transaction, it is a cycle that strengthens with every turn
A reduction is verified independently, registered in a public registry, shared with the partners that financed it, then retired and reported against each buyer's inventory. The revenue flows back to the supplier and funds the next project.
Each completed turn adds liquidity, tightens price discovery and makes the following investment easier to underwrite. The market gets thicker, and the next green tonne is cheaper to finance than the last.
