“# Steve Wozniak-backed token WOZX skyrockets ahead of second listing <\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

App<\/a>le co-founder Steve Wozniak\u2019s new token, Efforce (WOZX), almost doubled in price today after an astonishing run that saw the price increase around 26X in the past week.<\/p>\n

WOZX will open<\/a> for trading on Korea-based exchange Bithumb on Dec. 9, and is already up 2,490% since first being listed<\/a> on the HBTC exchange on Dec. 3. It opened at 10 cents per token and currently trades at $2.59.<\/p>\n

Ethereum blockchain token WOZX is a way to securitize energy savings. The\u00a0token<\/a> has a total supply of one billion and was sold via private funding rounds conducted earlier this year, receiving an initial valuation of $80 million.<\/p>\n

It reached a market cap of $950 million in its first 13 minutes of trading, according<\/a> to the eponymous company behind the token, Efforce<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It is Wozniak\u2019s second blockchain-related venture since co-founding Apple in his parents\u2019 garage in 1976. Touting itself as \u201cthe first blockchain-based energy saving platform,\u201d Efforce aims to encourage the reduction of energy consumption in a way that is meaningful but does not disrupt current human behavior or routine. <\/p>\n

WOZX tokens will be used on the platform by contributors who want to take part in energy-saving projects and as rewards based on the amount of energy a user has saved.<\/p>\n

Wozniak is joined at Efforce by co-founders Jacopo Visetti and Jacopo Vanetti who serve as Project Lead and CTO, respectively. The company was founded in 2019 and is based in Malta, a nation widely considered to be friendly to blockchain-based enterprises.<\/p>\n

In a Dec. 4 announcement, Visetti described<\/a> how Efforce will help democratize the energy efficiency market by connecting investors with energy savings projects.<\/p>\n

“Energy efficiency is a way to create a sustainable future, and this is a way to help counter climate change, reduce carbon \u2014 and make money while you do it.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In Oct. 2018, Wozniak founded the blockchain-based capital venture fund EQUI Global in an effort to disrupt the venture capital and funding industry.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
