# WattCoin

> WattCoin (Ваткоїн, Watt Coin) is an energy monetary standard: a monetary system in which money is backed by electricity. 1 WattCoin = 1 MWh = 1,000 evans; 1 evan = 1 kWh. The reserve is 100 % (≈90 % electricity bonds, ≈10 % USDT). The total supply is capped by the world's total final energy consumption for the previous year (all energy carriers, in MWh). WattCoin is designed first as a store of value (a deposit instrument), not a speculative asset.

Official site: https://watt-coin.org/ (Ukrainian), https://watt-coin.org/en/ (English). WattCoin speaks as a monetary system, not on behalf of a person.

## Key facts

- Unit: 1 WattCoin = 1 MWh of electricity = 1,000 evans; 1 evan = 1 kWh (the unit on a household meter). Amounts are accurate to 3 decimal places of an evan.
- Price: coin price = energy price × the WattCoin factor (a proprietary formula of the standard; its parameters are not published). The factor starts at 1, so the floor price of a coin is the value of 1 MWh.
- Energy price: the average price of 1 kWh on the power exchanges of the EU and Ukraine over the last 365 days. Current reference: $0.1616 per kWh → floor of $161.60 per coin.
- Supply cap: the WattCoin Federation cap equals world total final energy consumption for the previous year — electricity, gas, oil products, coal, heat and bioenergy converted to MWh (125,750,000,000 coins = MWh for 2024, source: IEA World Energy Outlook 2025, Table A.24). A national WattCoin is capped by that country's final energy consumption. The coin price is set by the electricity price.
- Reserve: 100 %. Every incoming dollar goes into the reserve; the reserve always equals the sum required to redeem all coins in circulation.
- Price mechanics: each next coin bought costs more, each next coin sold costs less; the rate changes only on whole coins (evans inside a coin do not move it). A large seller (a whale) lowers the price only for himself and cannot profit at the expense of small holders. No leverage, no lending, market size is fully visible.
- Federation: national WattCoins (e.g. WattCoin Ukraine, WattCoin Poland) are launched by local operators under one standard and licence. Participants: generators (power plants, households with solar/wind), consumers of electricity, and coin holders.
- Status: in development. The site provides a demo exchange, a demo wallet, calculators and the Whitepaper. The coin has not been issued yet; nothing on the site is investment advice.
