Energi (NRG) is a proof-of-stake (POS) cryptocurrency that combines smart contracts decentralized governance and a self-funding treasury. It was founded in 2018 and is headquartered in the British Virgin Islands.Energi never had a pre-mine or an initial coin offering — instead its treasury allowed the project to fund development support operations and marketing. Energi network allocates a small number of tokens toward mining rewards and gives the bulk of the token issuance to the treasury and masternodes. Energi is a self-financing cryptocurrency — the main advantage of this approach is the fact that it can pay investors and developers.
