Celo Org, the development team behind the Celo ecosystem, shared several updates on Kuneco Demo Day on Twitter yesterday. The team members discussed plans for Celo's Climate Collective, an initiative to tokenize rainforests and other carbon-capturing assets. According to the team, the tokenized trees will then be added to the Celo Reserve, which is worth nearly $1 billion.
Furthermore, the team held a demo showcasing how to buy non-fungible tokens (NFTs) with credit cards. Celo is an open platform that supports a wide range of distributed applications, smart contract development and payments using e-mail addresses and phone numbers as public keys.
CELO's price has soared by nearly 10% since the event took place yesterday, and it is now trading at $3.87 per coin.
