Introduction

Here we present the strategic framework for evaluating and onboarding tokenized impact assets as collateral within the Azos.finance protocol, a decentralized finance platform focused on environmental and social impact investments. The analysis reveals that over $500 million worth of tokenized impact assets have already been identified and catalogued, spanning carbon credits, renewable energy tokens, regenerative agriculture platforms, and other sustainability-focused digital assets. The assessment methodology prioritizes decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), direct impact mechanisms over governance tokens, physical asset connections, and robust liquidity profiles across target blockchain networks. This comprehensive evaluation system ensures that collateral assets maintain both meaningful environmental impact and sufficient financial stability to support a sustainable stablecoin protocol.
