Abstract

The integration of blockchain technology in carbon trade management offers transformative potential for improving transparency, monitoring, and efficiency in Indonesia's REDD+ schemes. This study employs a qualitative approach, analyzing data from three informants—a blockchain expert, an environmental policymaker, and a conservationist—using NVivo software for thematic analysis. Findings reveal that blockchain enhances transparency and trust, streamlines Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) processes, and addresses challenges in carbon trade systems. However, barriers such as infrastructure gaps, high implementation costs, and regulatory ambiguities remain. The study underscores the need for targeted capacity building, pilot programs, and robust policy frameworks to enable effective blockchain adoption in Indonesia's carbon markets.

Abstract

The integration of blockchain technology with Geographic Information Systems (GIS) offers an innovative solution for enhancing transparency and efficiency in carbon trade marketing. This study explores the development of an integrative blockchain-based carbon trade marketing model for the Bromo-Tengger-Semeru region, utilizing GIS analysis for spatial verification and dynamic monitoring of carbon stock. Results indicate significant carbon sequestration potential in the region, with high carbon stock zones and reforestation opportunities identified through GIS. The blockchain system improves transaction transparency, traceability, and efficiency through the use of smart contracts and decentralized ledgers. Stakeholder workshops demonstrated strong support for the proposed model, emphasizing its potential to overcome existing challenges in carbon trading. The integration of GIS and blockchain ensures spatial accuracy and enhances stakeholder confidence, making it a viable approach for scaling carbon trade initiatives. This study contributes to the advancement of sustainable carbon trade practices, offering a replicable model for other regions.
