Hope this finds you well. Hard to believe that we are well into the new year, continuing on the journey of rediscovering and redefining our interaction with nature and value.

At BASIN, we have been heads down building. There are so many updates I could share, from us becoming a TNFD Forum Member to our RealValue of Natural Capital framework, to Dispatches, and so much more. But today, I'm thrilled to share with you a key milestone of the BASIN PROTOCOL.

After a year of sorting out the tech, .basin’s are ready to be released and, in fact, if you are reading this, ready for you to claim!

For a moment, consider a basin in nature – a vital component of our ecosystems that catch, store, and purify water. Similarly, a .basin is a reservoir of Value – not just financial but ecological and environmental assets as well. .basins are where we store, nurture, and show off what we value most, ensuring our legacies and the health of ecosystems and biodiversity.

Is a .basin a domain, an email address, a token, membership, or all of these? It's a unique blend! In the BASIN PROTOCOL, each .basin represents a PLACE, PURPOSE, or PEOPLE – each is a perpetual purpose trust for the individual .basin.

tmo.basin, hanna.basin, hendo.basin, biodiversity.basin, carbon.basin, elk.basin, beaver.basin, trembling-aspen.basin, humpback-whale.basin, mount-whitney.basin, prospect-park.basin, climate-stability.basin, clean-water.basin, amazon.basin, nile.basin, colorado.basin, etc.

Managed individually or collectively, .basins serve as vessels for growing assets, both financial and ecological, for and on behalf of the .basin. Central to funding vital climate and nature projects, they are empowered by BASIN STREAMS - the financial and value flows incentivized through the PROTOCOL.

We have had requests for well over 1,000 .basins. As of today, we've minted 632, with more en route. To claim yours, DM TMO.

So what can I do with my .basin? Only members of the BASIN PROTOCOL know. How do you become a member? With your .basin, of course! It is your certificate of membership.

The rest of this post is for members only, so go get your .basin and then come back to get the inside scoop.

Now that you have your .basin, reply or DM TMO with two things:

1. A PLACE that you hold dear and is very important to you. Send the lat/long and/or place name.

and

1. A PURPOSE that is important to you. In the BASIN PROTOCOL, purposes are species, ecosystems, ecosystem services, causes, or motivations. It’s the why of all this.

Once we get this from you, we will respond with some goodies, and will show you how your .basin holds assets.

Thanks for being here. We are excited to build “nature’s balance sheet” with you.
