Abstract

This paper explores the potential of green digital currencies as a tool to promote sustainable practices in the digital economy and evaluates their effectiveness in reducing carbon emissions compared to cryptocurrencies and traditional currencies. The study employs a descriptive-analytical methodology. The analysis results reveal that green cryptocurrencies represent a promising path towards mitigating the environmental impact of digital currencies while promoting responsible investment and renewable energy use.
