Supply reduced.
Value concentrated.
VOLT began with an initial issuance of 1,000,000,000 units. 800,000,000 VOLT has been permanently burned directly, with a further 31,572,650 VOLT removed through ecosystem burns. The current effective total supply is 168,427,350 VOLT.

removed permanently.
Of the original 1,000,000,000 VOLT issuance, 800,000,000 has been directly burned. A further 31,572,650 has been burned through the ecosystem, leaving a current effective total supply of 168,427,350 VOLT.
The daily allocation mechanism remains separate from the burn history: at the current stage, the release pool is 1,000,000 VOLT per day and distribution is calculated from active base-station weight.
Active station.
100 points.
When a base station completes valid participation and is marked active, it receives 100 base-weight points for the next allocation cycle.
Structural weight is only counted for linked nodes that are also active. Inactive linked nodes are not included in the corresponding structural-weight calculation.
The whitepaper explicitly states Layer 1 = 90, Layer 2 = 80, decreasing by layer until Layer 10 = 10. V1 displays those stated checkpoints without filling in unspecified intermediate rows.
Current supply reflects post-whitepaper burns
The 1,000,000,000 figure in the current whitepaper is the original issuance figure. The website now displays the updated effective supply after the 800,000,000 direct burn and 31,572,650 ecosystem burn. The whitepaper remains available as the reference for the PoV release and weight mechanism.
