The Goen is the local currency of Tōdai City, Zokus use them to purchase everything from clothes to food to weapons.&#x20;

## Passive Goens

Given Tōdai is a progressive city, every Zoku gets a universal income, issued by The Central Bank of Tōdai, to spend as they please. The current distribution rate of goens is 100/day.&#x20;

## Active Goens

As in most economies, people can also choose to work to get more goens - different sets of skills allowing for different salaries. More information about the ways goens can be earned are in the [Earning](/guide/economy/earning.md) section of this guide. Goens are also useful for questing because certain quests demand Goen entry fees.

## e-Goens

These are goens that are earned on the ChainZoku Discord. They are converted 1:1 to goens once a month, by a member of the ChainZoku team. More information can be found in [Discord](/guide/economy/earning/discord.md).

## Digital Goens

Zoku holders can wrap 5k / 10k / 25k goens into Bronze / Silver / Golden Goens, mint them as NFTs, and trade them with others. In other words, they can convert Goens into Digital Goens.

A single wallet can only wrap 100k goens per week and there is a limit to the amount of Digital Goens that can be circulating on the market at the same time.
