Whole Earth Coin (WEC)

Whole Earth Coin (WEC) is a virtual currency part of the Whole Earth Foundation’s ecosystem for community infrastructure maintenance. The foundation believes that infrastructure is our world and emphasizes bringing it back into communities’ hands. WEC aims to facilitate cooperation between members of the public, infrastructure companies, and local government bodies through smartphone apps and decentralized blockchain technology. By providing incentives and financial value, WEC encourages active participation in maintaining and improving infrastructure, making it a tangible and intangible part of people’s lives.

The Whole Earth Foundation envisions an ecosystem that connects the public with infrastructure service providers, allowing access to a database containing detailed information on infrastructure. This exchange platform encourages communication and collaboration to enhance infrastructure management. The foundation believes that this community-led approach to infrastructure maintenance is essential for developing communities and countries and encourages people to think about the planet as a whole. WEC is just the beginning of this new ecosystem, which aims to make a meaningful impact on society.

As part of the Whole Earth Foundation’s initiatives, TEKKON is a Web3 app designed for social goods. Users can earn WEC tokens by posting and reviewing infrastructure data. The foundation also organizes events across Japan to collect manhole data, emphasizing the importance of community involvement in maintaining and improving infrastructure. With a roadmap that includes partnerships with major infrastructure companies and exchanges, the foundation is committed to realizing its vision of community-led infrastructure management and creating a sustainable future for our planet.
