What Power Ledger is
Power Ledger (POWR) is a Layer-1 smart-contract platform, currently ranked 372nd by market capitalization among the assets we track. Power Ledger is a Layer-1 smart-contract platform secured by proof-of-stake: validators lock POWR as collateral, and the protocol slashes anyone who misbehaves. The token is simultaneously gas, collateral, and a claim on staking yield.
Power Ledger (POWR) is a blockchain-based platform that enables decentralized energy trading, allowing users to buy and sell renewable energy directly with one another. It aims to create a more efficient and transparent energy market by using technology to empower consumers and promote sustainability.
How consensus and the token economy connect
Staking ties the token's value to network security: more POWR bonded means a costlier attack, and stakers are paid for taking that role. Unstaking queues and slashing parameters shape how liquid that capital really is.
POWR is not mined; it is issued as a token rather than secured by its own mining or staking layer.
Background & fundamentals
Power Ledger operates under a centralized structure, which concentrates protocol decisions in an identifiable issuer or foundation. A documented core team of 25 contributors is listed publicly, a depth of disclosed staffing many long-tail tokens lack. The project publishes a whitepaper documenting its original design, which is worth reading before sizing any position in POWR.
CoinPaprika classifies the project's development status as "Beta version". In sector terms it is most often filed under Platform, Smart Contracts, and Ethereum (ETH) Token (ERC-20).
Where Power Ledger sits in the market
With POWR near $0.0443, Power Ledger carries a market capitalization of $25.14M. Around $5.92M changes hands across exchanges in a typical 24-hour window. That is a turnover of about 23.54% of the float — elevated, often a sign of narrative-driven trading.
Power Ledger carries no fixed maximum supply; issuance follows a programmatic schedule rather than a hard cap. POWR remains -98% beneath its all-time high of $2.01, the kind of gap that historically takes a full cycle or a fresh catalyst to close.
What the price history shows
Recent moves read 24-hour -8.72%, 7-day +2.06%, 30-day -0.73%, 1-year -64.85%. Within its stored 365-day daily history, POWR mounted a low-to-high run of roughly 41% at its strongest stretch.
Volatility profile
Recent action puts Power Ledger in the Extreme-volatility band — it is in a high-volatility regime — these are the conditions where outsized gains and losses both become more likely. Over the last 30 days the move totals -0.73%, a useful input for stop placement and position sizing.
How to evaluate Power Ledger
For an asset of this type, three lenses matter most:
- Real usage — active addresses, fees paid, and total value locked — does on-chain demand justify the valuation?
- Staking economics — the share of POWR staked, the yield, and unlock/queue dynamics that govern liquid supply.
- Ecosystem depth — how many applications and how much liquidity have chosen Power Ledger over competing Layer-1s.
