Victoria Ecosystems is working to digitalize nature in order to better protect and manage ecosystems, while making biodiversity truly visible for all humans.
Victoria is launching a revolutionary strategy inspired in Decentralized Finance:
The Victoria Family
Victoria Ecosystems is launching Decentralized Environmental Verification (DEV), to allow anyone in the world to become a verifier of the health of ecosystems. Our data transparency efforts will align and expand the Regenerative Finance (ReFi) Movement.

En Victoria Ecosystems trabajamos para digitalizar la naturaleza con el objetivo de proteger y administrar de una mejor manera los ecosistemas, mientras hacemos realmente visible la biodiversidad para los humanos.
These are 4 key concepts to understand Victoria’s scope:
Biodiversity. The wealth of species, genetic variations, ecosystems and life expressions. In other words: all animals, all plants, all fungi, all microorganisms, including all their variations, as well as the clusters and communities they make.
Ecosystems. Nature is connected across the entire planet, but we usually divide it into smaller units that we can study and understand more easily. These units are called ecosystems, and to make the division we usually look for a “natural system” with pieces that are closely connected to each other, and that “work together”. This is why sometimes we call a very small forest an ecosystem and sometimes we call a very large jungle an ecosystem. In ecosystems there are living components such as animals, plants and microorganisms, and nonliving components like soil, rocks, and water.
Natural Assets. Natural resources (like ecosystems) are starting to be identified as an asset class in the financial world. This is important because we should value a forest not only when we sell its wood, but also when it is producing oxygen and being a shelter for biodiversity.
Digital Twins. Very robust digital copies of something. They started in factories and warehouses, where the digitalization of processes and production lines led some companies to make accurate digital representations of an entire production system. Digital Twins are very useful to manage a space in a more efficient way, and they are particularly powerful if they are constantly updated with fresh data, and sprinkled with Artificial Intelligence (AI) (or more precisely, with Machine Learning) so the system “learns” from itself and evolves its responses to challenges.
In other words: a Digital Twin is an accurate digital representation that can be used to better understand and manage what it represents.

And here are 3 concepts proposed by Victoria:

Intelligent Natural Assets (INAs).
INAs are blockchain-enabled, Digital Twins built on a robust data system with reliable and abundant data from ecosystems or other natural assets. The critical difference between INAs and any other data-backed representation of nature is in trust: how do we all know it is real and a current representation? That is where Decentralized Environmental Verification (DEV) comes in.
Decentralized Environmental Verification (DEV).
Currently we trust the certifier that says a forest is well preserved and capturing carbon dioxide. We also trust the certifier that says that a building project or a large infrastructure project will not destroy or negatively impact the environment. Finally, we trust the certifier that says that a sustainability project has this or that positive impact. This is marvelous, but it is also a little outdated. We live in the era of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) and Internet of Things (IoT): it is time we create Decentralized Environmental Verification.
DEV democratizes and crowdsources the protection of nature. DEV means using technology to help build and update INAs, while making any human on the planet with internet access a potential independent verifier: anyone can have a look at the fresh data we input and see if it makes sense, or if there is a risk to an ecosystem like illegal hunting, or if the pollution levels of a lake have suddenly changed. So, DEV makes it easy for any person to help oversee the health of a specific ecosystem anytime, from anywhere in the world. That way we can constantly improve INAs, and with them manage ecosystems better.
The technical explanation is that we use blockchain, advanced IoT systems, and decentralized crowdsourced information to structure a reliable “data mesh” (a flexible group of data lakes and sources) on any natural asset, creating then a Digital Twin that can’t be altered or tampered with. This opens the door to Radical Environmental Transparency.
Radical Environmental Transparency (RET).
RET is simply the maximum possible degree of transparency applied to data coming from nature. It means giving greater visibility to biodiversity by bringing nature and wildlife into people’s smartphones and daily life in the form of exciting and immersive content, by making it easy for people to learn about ecosystems, by allowing anyone that grows interested in nature to become an independent verifier of the health of ecosystems, and by enabling a data system so robust and so reliable that a data scientist or a high school student can use it to push forward our knowledge and understanding of nature. For a deeper dive, see the Annex.
As seen in
Decentralized Environmental Verification
Here you can see data we are collecting from nature. Explore it. Use it. Play with it. Share it.
Here biodiversity becomes visible. Help us maximize its visibility.
