Cho Jae-weon of the Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology is a professor of urban and environmental engineering. He created an eco-friendly toilet. But not only that. For connection to a laboratory that uses manure to produce biogas and fertilizers. Then he created shitcoins to realize his project.
interesting but not really worth it @ 0.5kwh per day = 180Kwh annually @ 10cents = €18/yr.. it should cost few hundreds € with no maintenance cost to have economic sense

The BeeVi toilet (combining the idea of bees and vision) is the brainchild of Professor Cho Jae-weon.
If a person feeds 500 grams of food per day, the result is 50 liters of methane, generating 0.5kWh of electricity. This will power a vehicle for 1.2 km or 0.75 miles.
To now bring his research closer to people, Professor Cho has developed a cryptocurrency called Ggool to entice people to where it will be put to good use. Each person giving “poop” will earn 10 Ggool.
Currently, Ggool can be used to buy things. Students at the university can buy things like coffee, noodles, and books on campus.
