Use Cases for PWR (Power) Coin

Payments

The PWR (Power) Coin, as the native on chain currency of MaxxChain, is required for sending and receiving payments, swapping for NFTs and on-chain Project tokens. Transactions are verified by miners and PWR (Power) Coins are rewarded with every block validated. Gas fees are extremely low in comparison to other Proof of Work chains and are well under $0.01 USD.

Network Fees

PWR (Power) Coin is used for all network gas fees when it comes to deployment of smart contracts, sending payments, swapping for tokens or NFTs. Miners work to secure the network while fees are extremely cost effective for a Proof of Work consensus in relation to other competitors. Block rewards are capitalized for verifiable transactions.

Integrity and Accuracy

PWR (Power) Coin under the Proof of Work consensus allows for the verification of accuracy of new transactions that are added to the public ledger. The integrity of data and accuracy allow for new coins to be rewarded to the validators thus offering an incentive of computational power to the network.

PWR (Power) Coin Supply

MaxxChain harnesses the PoW consensus mechanism, minting 5 coins with each successful block mined, with gas fees shared among miners. To maintain a balanced ecosystem, MaxxChain offsets newly minted coins through burn from fees implemented on on-chain utilities. Furthermore, the MaxxChain team has committed a substantial portion of the project treasury to extended coin burns for 2 years following chain deployment. This initiative includes a weekly burn of 1,201,600 PWR coins for the first 52 weeks, effectively offsetting the 201,600 PWR coins produced from mining, in addition to 1,000,000 PWR coins. Commencing with an initial supply of 1,000,000,000 PWR coins, the team has thus far burned over 75% of the supply, with the aim of restricting the circulating supply to enhance long-term price stability and security. For a full breakdown and updates of the pre-mined supply, please refer to our Knowledge Base.

How to buy PWR (Power) Coin
