ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) regulations for crypto assets aim to address their environmental impact (e.g., energy-intensive mining), promote transparency, and ensure ethical governance practices to align the crypto industry with broader sustainability and societal goals. These regulations encourage compliance with standards that mitigate risks and foster trust in digital assets.

Relevant legal entity identifier | 743700PZG5RRF7SA4Q58 |
Name of the crypto-asset | Blast |
Consensus Mechanism | Blast operates as an Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) solution leveraging optimistic rollup technology for efficient transaction processing while integrating innovative yield generation mechanisms. Core Components: Optimistic Rollup: Processes transactions off-chain and submits aggregated data to the Ethereum mainnet, reducing on-chain load and improving scalability. Sequencer Role: Responsible for ordering and bundling off-chain transactions before submission to Ethereum, ensuring fast and orderly processing. Native Yield Integration: Introduces native yield generation for ETH and stablecoins, enhancing the baseline yield for users interacting with the network. |
Incentive Mechanisms and Applicable Fees | Blast aligns user and application incentives through gas revenue sharing, reduced fees, and integrated yield opportunities. Incentive Mechanisms: Gas Revenue Sharing: Unlike typical L2s, Blast redistributes net gas revenue to decentralized applications (dApps), fostering ecosystem growth and collaboration. Native Yield Feature: Offers integrated yield generation on ETH and stablecoins, allowing users to earn directly through the platform. Applicable Fees: Reduced Transaction Fees: Optimistic rollup technology significantly lowers transaction fees, making interactions cost-efficient for users and dApps. |

Energy consumption resources and methodologies | For the calculation of energy consumptions, the so called “bottom-up” approach is being used. The nodes are considered to be the central factor for the energy consumption of the network. These assumptions are made on the basis of empirical findings through the use of public information sites, open-source crawlers and crawlers developed in-house. The main determinants for estimating the hardware used within the network are the requirements for operating the client software. The energy consumption of the hardware devices was measured in certified test laboratories. Due to the structure of this network, it is not only the mainnet that is responsible for energy consumption. In order to calculate the structure adequately, a proportion of the energy consumption of the connected network, ethereum, must also be taken into account, because the connected network is also responsible for security. This proportion is determined on the basis of gas consumption. When calculating the energy consumption, we used - if available - the Functionally Fungible Group Digital Token Identifier (FFG DTI) to determine all implementations of the asset of question in scope and we update the mappings regulary, based on data of the Digital Token Identifier Foundation. |
