The Glacier That Wasn’t For Sale


Listen Later

In the far south of Chile, high in the Andes, there’s a glacier called Amarillo.
It wasn’t listed. It wasn’t claimed. It wasn’t for sale.

But this year, someone began scanning it — from orbit.

They said it was for protection.
What they really created was a digital copy:
Mapped, modeled, and minted as a token.
One square meter at a time.

In this episode, we unpack the rise of “nature-based digital assets” —
and what it means when care becomes code.
Who owns a glacier if no one touches it?
And what systems profit when stewardship becomes a product?

Calm. Investigative. Cinematic.
We don’t just report the story —
we ask what built it.
