Web3Eco

Recently, people are increasingly thinking about ecology and taking actions that would help improve the environment. Yes, it is a global problem, but still each of us is more concerned with more pressing issues. Investors are puzzled about where to invest their capital and which projects to choose, so that in the end they do not go bust and lose all their money. Most of the “profitable” startups turn out to be mere wrappers and bring nothing but losses to their holders.

In this article we would like to talk about a project that realizes accessibility and security of Web3 investments. In it, each investor contributes to the improvement of the ecological environment, solves the problem of deforestation and air purification, which makes the surrounding world a little better. Let’s talk about Web3Eco – a company that gives huge investments in the ecology of our planet.

At the beginning we would like to emphasize the people behind the Web3Eco project to emphasize the scale of the project implementation and the reliability given to investors by its creators.

Web3Eco project founders

Behind the project is a family trust with a lot of experience in business management and development, not just another grief-stricken start-up with no experience. After all, it usually happens like this: there is an idea, a plan for implementation, but no idea how to bring the company to a high level. In the opinion of the editorial board, this is the first thing investors should pay attention to. Many people can promise results and big numbers, but is there any background to believe these words?

Philip Bolotov – founder of the Web3Eco project

The Web3Eco project is based on a team that pumped up the company of the largest private Internet provider Smile in the Moscow region from scratch. One of the founders – Philip Bolotov – among the partners was responsible for marketing and sales in the company, which at that time employed more than 600 people. At the peak of development, the operator’s services were used by more than 150 thousand homes, the network coverage was more than 1 million people, and the official turnover was more than $30 million a year. In 2016, the company was bought out by Richard Branson’s Virgin Connect for several tens of millions of dollars (calculated by the editorial staff, as the exact amount is under NDA).

After a short pause and monitoring the market, Philippe and his team went into investing and mining with further construction of their own large-scale hosting. In 2022, he founded Web3Eco where he was able to link real and digital assets and implement tree tokenization and physical land using NFT.

What is Web3Eco?

It is essentially a classic tree business, but attracting investment using blockchain technology. Return for an investor is about 35-45% per year, if you invest in the project now, when the cost of one NFT-tree from the first limited batch is only $49. At the same time, each non-mutually exchangeable token is secured by real assets – trees of valuable wood species, which are already growing on the plantation fully built at the company’s own expense. The project is also officially registered in Switzerland, creating additional security for investors. It is expected that in the near future the entry prices for assets will only grow, approaching the standard for traditional business yields of 10-20% per annum, so investing in the project at the start will be the most correct decision.

What is the benefit of investment:

  • Web3Eco is a real business that sells real trees and sought-after premium timber.
  • More innovative approach and making all processes transparent to investors.
  • Annual returns at the start are 5-10 times higher than investment rates of traditional businesses, and its stability is higher than that of any bank, stock or bond, as the investor’s income does not depend on fluctuations in the financial markets.
  • Risks are minimal due to the presence of official papers confirming the legality of the business, as well as due to the creation of plantations in different countries and tokenization of not all trees in case replacement is needed.
  • Investing in NFT-trees with the possibility of earning about 300% profit during the growth cycle of the tree, as well as a constant contribution to ecology and environmental improvement.

The founders of the project are tasked with more than just making money, which is a boost for most entrepreneurs. The goal is to do something more, to become a leader in a new niche and contribute to the planet. We believe this is a great investment that deserves to be realized on a global scale.

How the project creation and planting of paulownia plantations began

After sharing the idea for the plantations, the project team officially received permission from the government to own 620 hectares of land for 30 years. The ownership of the planted trees is officially registered in the cadastre of Uzbekistan. The plantation belongs to one of the companies of Web3Eco group – Green World Forestry, the main owner of which is the founder of Web3Eco himself.

Web3Eco project is officially registered in Switzerland – the most reliable jurisdiction for investments. The possibility of securing and transferring such a right using blockchain technology is supported at the level of Swiss law. The advantages of the Polygon blockchain are retained: decentralization, speed and security.

The company’s NFT trees are an official security that gives the right to receive profits. With each investor of the project, an offer contract is concluded, created according to the Swiss regulator. Accordingly, each investor, when buying NFT, receives the right to profit from the ownership of NFT-participants with trees.

All processes are completely transparent, which once again confirms the reliability of the project and investments. We attach a link to the official source.

The system is set up in such a way that the management company Green World Forestry in Uzbekistan grows trees, produces and sells wood, supplying profits to the Swiss company Web3Eco, which already issues NFTs that give investors the right to profit from each tree.

Information is public and all activities are carried out with official authorization and support from the Uzbek government. The implementation of plantations and observance of all conditions for planting and nurturing paulownia is carried out personally under the supervision of Alisher Turaev, former Deputy Minister of Agriculture of Uzbekistan (currently head of the Center for Knowledge and Innovation in Agriculture under the same ministry), who monitors the observance of technologies and the growth of trees.

At the end of 2022, the first plantation plot was established on an area of 35 hectares, where 150,000 seedlings of paulownia of the best varieties were planted.

In 2023, plot number 2 was created, measuring 65 Ha. In the process, the entire infrastructure and drip irrigation system of plot 1 was redesigned. Thus, the plantation was expanded to 100 hectares. There is now also a large stock of seedlings and free land to expand the plantation next season, in parallel with the construction of the next project plantation in Turkey on an area of about 1000 hectares.

The plans are substantial and the project team is already working on realizing them in order to attract as many investors as possible, who will be able to purchase NFT-parties of trees, investing in the environment and guaranteeing a profit in the future.

Pavlovnia – what is it

Web3Eco are planting paulownia plantations. There are several reasons why the company decided to choose this particular type of trees. Let’s analyze them in more detail and show what kind of profitability can be from it.

Paulownia is the fastest growing tree in the world. It cleans the air from carbon dioxide 10 times more efficiently than other plants, and can live up to 200 years. The great advantage of paulownia is that its growth cycle in the warm climate of Uzbekistan is 6-7 years. After that it is cut off, but it continues its regeneration process. It is important to note that after cutting, the plant grows even faster and can live several hundred years by absorbing CO2. The paulownia is a boon for the environment. That is why Web3Eco opted for it.

In addition to its great ecological potential, the price of paulownia wood also increases steadily every year, which is a plus for investors. It is used to create premium products such as yachts, top quality furniture, musical instruments and much more.

How much investors get with Web3Eco

We decided to do our own analysis to make sure that the above figures are real. And we were pleasantly surprised, because in addition to the guaranteed income, this direction is really in demand and has a market. This direction of investment is quite popular, and it is already talked about on many reputable media platforms, which only confirms the prospects and rapid growth of Web3Eco in the near future.

In Uzbekistan, the management company will be responsible for cutting trees, preparing and selling timber. Later on, the investor will receive income after deducting the company’s commission and expenses by buying back the NFT.

That is, buying NFT at the planting stage, the investor’s possible income will be about $150 per tree. It is important to note that the offer is limited to the actual number of trees that are planted at each stage. So here it is definitely better not to delay the purchase of NFT-trees, otherwise you can miss the deadline. Then you will have to wait until the company starts creating new plantations.

In addition to this, holders will also be able to profit throughout this time, thanks to related products in the form of honey, carbon credits, leaf pellets and young paulownia seedlings. This will additionally yield another few percent per annum on top. Thus, the possible capital growth could be up to 370% in 6 years. The project website also provides a table showing the tokenomics of the project and the yield calculation over 6 years.

For confirmation, we sent these figures to our peers who confirmed Web3Eco’s forecasts. Under ideal conditions, the returns shown in the calculations are guaranteed, and on average the final figures will differ by about 7-15%, which is also pretty good.

At what stage is the construction now

The company has already invested about $1 million of its own funds in paulownia plantations. Below we attach photos where you can see how it looks like in real life. By the way, the Web3Eco team is as open as possible and is ready to give a tour of the plantation to any investor who wants to see their trees live or check all the documents confirming the planting permit and the right to own the planted trees.

As a result, the total investment in the project in Uzbekistan will be about $3 million. However, the Web3Eco team will get land and start planting paulownia plantations in Turkey, where about 1,000 hectares of land will be allocated for them. This will cost about $12 million. This is just the beginning, because in addition to plantations in Uzbekistan and Turkey, the company plans to build wood processing plants in these regions.

Then Web3Eco will start the implementation of tree plantations in Europe (Bulgaria, Spain), where paulownia is in great demand and the average price of 1 m3 of wood is $400-800. (1 tree is approximately a minimum of 0.5 m3, which gives a profit of ≈$150). The plans for the next few years alone require about $30-50 million, of which part is their personal investment and the other part is net profit from previously planted trees. The overall goal of the company is to plant more than 100,000 hectares in different countries and more than 60 million trees within 10 years.

After studying the project, there is not even any question about the reliability of the project. The guarantees for investors are backed up:

  • Project founders, including Philip Bolotov, who is a reputable person in the circle of entrepreneurs and who has no sense to risk his reputation.
  • Supporting documents, which have already been mentioned earlier.
  • The participation of influential persons, including former Deputy Minister of Uzbekistan Alisher Turaev, who personally supports and accompanies the project at all stages.

Moreover, we personally know several large investors who have invested money in the project and are waiting for more trees to be planted in order to acquire more NFTs. According to them, Web3Eco has huge prospects at a distance, so the profit is guaranteed, which means it is better to invest $45-49 now to get more than 300-350% of the initial amount at the end.

Summarize

In our opinion, Web3Eco is a worthwhile project and definitely a future bullrun trend. Even the main foundations say that asset tokenization is the future, and when it is connected with environmental improvement, it gives a double guarantee that the project will live on and become more and more popular every year.

Web3Eco realized such a system, which will not only slow down the destruction of the ozone layer and improve the environment, but will also bring investors a good profit and gratitude for investing in a world-scale endeavor. According to Philip Bolotov, Web3Eco will issue certificates to each investor who has contributed. It will state how much carbon dioxide has been treated by the trees whose NFT holder he or she is.

It’s more important than ever to contribute to charities, but in many cases the money doesn’t even reach the people who need it and to whom it was sent. We believe that now is the best time to start investing in the environment and saving the environment before more global problems come. Web3Eco is a great solution to bring your minimal contribution to the betterment of our planet.

It’s better to invest in really worthwhile projects. We attach links to all the documents below for those who want to explore the project in more detail. Also a little bonus: if you subscribe to the Web3Eco bot in Telegram, there is a video with the CEO of the project – Philip Bolotov, in which he talks about the project in detail. If there is a desire, you can always write to him personally to fly to the plantations and see everything with your own eyes.

The project really deserves attention. After being analyzed by our editorial staff, we confirm our words that Web3Eco is a worthwhile project, based on an experienced team with a strong background. That means we expect the realization of plans and great growth in the very near future.
