The Astatine Standard is a monetary policy which directly bases the value of currency to the value of astatine.
Astatine is notable for being the rarest element in the world, which approximately only 1 gram is present on Earth at any given time. Due to astatine being a very unstable element, it has a very short half-life and will last just over 8 hours before it decays. It is also a very hard element to create in labs.
The Astatine Standard is off-compass on the economic deflation scale.
