01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
Carb0n.fi was a Singapore-based climate-tech startup using blockchain to create better incentives in carbon-trading markets. Founded in July 2021 by CEO Bree Yek — previously a bunker-fuel trader who had pivoted into recycling startups — with Florian Bohnert (CMO, ex-Cardano blockchain marketing) and CTO '0xenon', it targeted Southeast Asian small enterprises that were penalized rather than rewarded for trying to reach net zero. The company was incubated by Antler and closed a $600,000 seed round led by crypto-focused Owl Ventures.
