Part J: Information on the sustainability indicators in relation to adverse impact on the climate and other environment-related adverse impacts

J.1. Mandatory information on principal adverse impacts on the climate and other environment-related adverse impacts of the consensus mechanism

The WYT operates on SOL token which operates on the Solana blockchain, which utilizes a hybrid consensus mechanism combining Proof-of-History (PoH) and Proof-of-Stake (PoS). These mechanisms are designed to optimize throughput and transaction efficiency while relying on validator networks rather than energy-intensive mining processes typically associated with Proof-of-Work (PoW) blockchains. While Solana's architecture allows for lower energy requirements per transaction relative to PoW-based systems, it is important to note that this does not imply a reduction in absolute energy consumption or environmental impact. Rather, Solana’s consensus approach represents a comparatively less burdensome model in terms of energy use and thus offers a relatively more sustainable operational framework. In accordance with MiCA’s sustainability disclosure requirements, the Solana Foundation has published data related to the blockchain’s environmental metrics. As of the latest available figures, Solana’s estimated annual energy consumption is approximately 5,365,500 kWh, of which 14.77% is sourced from renewable energy. Scope 1 emissions are reported as zero, while Scope 2 emissions—related to electricity usage—total approximately 1,873.143 tCO₂e per year. Per-transaction energy consumption and greenhouse gas intensity are estimated at 0.00000 kWh and 0.00000 kgCO₂e, respectively.
