Even though we need ecosystemic services to breathe, to live, and to sustain our world, they are not being valued within society. \nParticularly, there are no incentive to protect and propagate endangered and old grown trees, that do not bring significant revenue to logging companies to be kept alive. These beings are essential for ecosystemis services to hold human-relevant needs.\n\n![Forest fragmentation](https://i.postimg.cc/76y8pzGW/Forest-fragmentation.gif)\n\n\n\n***Opportunity:*** Natural Real World Assets as an economic driver towards regeneration.\n\n### HOW?\n\nFoster a new economic real-life game from decentralized NRWA registry and mint tokens as rewards.

Through the gamified experience of registering and verifying these species, EntSnap promotes community engagement, environmental education, and financial inclusion in a user-friendly platform.\n\nUsers can georeference and verify trees and earn rewards in $ROOTS tokens for their participation. This creates an inclusive ecosystem that enables anyone, regardless of background, to contribute to biodiversity preservation while generating economic value from ecological assets.\n\n ![App example](https://i.postimg.cc/ncdxCMgX/App-example.jpg)\n\n\n#### Key Areas:\n- **Financial Inclusion**: EntSnap provides local landowners, indigenous communities, and citizens the opportunity to monetize the preservation of endangered trees. Tokenized NFTs allow them to raise funds for conservation efforts through blockchain-enabled donations and tree adoptions. Investors from around the world can participate in supporting conservation efforts, enabling underrepresented and marginalized groups to access new forms of income generation while preserving their natural heritage.\n  \n- **Education**: EntSnap educates users on the importance of endangered species and ecosystems. It promotes environmental awareness through interactive AR/VR content, allowing users to explore endangered ecosystems digitally. The platform\u2019s gamified approach, combined with educational material, engages users in learning about the impact of climate change and biodiversity loss while incentivizing positive ecological behavior.\n  \n- **Social Impact**: The app empowers local communities by facilitating their active role in ecosystem preservation, fostering a sense of ownership and responsibility. By making environmental conservation accessible through blockchain, EntSnap aligns with the goals of sustainable development, promoting social equity through its transparent, decentralized, and globally inclusive platform.\n\n###  EntSnap: Decentralized Proof-of-Tree Registering & NRWA Tokenization dApp\n\nOne of the challenges we've faced on our journey is keeping updated on-chain data to verify an Endangered tree is actually alive. With decentralization, smartphones, and a well-designed dApp, we can connect incentives with tasks on the field to discover, register, capture content, tokenize, and give living proof-of-tree for valuable specimens, keeping token holders updated on their collected ENTS as well as landowners incentivized to preserve them.\n\n![Entsnap Beta](https://i.postimg.cc/R0txsdFt/Ents-Dapp-UX.png)\n\n\n\nAccess our beta here: \nAndroid: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.entsnap.app\nIphone: https://testflight.apple.com/join/pz1MOEgm \n![]\n\nThrough our upcoming Utility Token **$ROOTS**, we plan on incentivizing the massive registry of monumental and endangered trees to be minted as NFTs as store-of-value assets on the blockchain.\n\n### EntSnap Treenomics\n![Entsnap Tokenomics](https://i.postimg.cc/t4wHNwXy/Entsnap-Tokenomics.jpg)\n\n\n## Why Support Entsnap? \ud83c\udf0d\n\nIn a world facing ecological crises, **EntSnap** provides a powerful tool for change.
