The coin’s creators have tried marketing it as a “2019-nCoV relief effort,” the website shows, by claiming that around 20% of the supply will be allocated for monthly donations to the Red Cross. There are 7.6b tokens, representing the population of Earth, and with each case/death a token is "burned".
“The fact that the number of tokens decreases over time, means that it is deflationary and should become more valuable over time,” the website reads. “The supply is also non-mintable, so no new Coronacoins can ever be created.”
