Understanding Coin Burning: Why It Matters for Your Earnings
Ever heard of a coin “burn” and wondered how it affects your wallet? Let’s break it down.
What Is Coin Burning?
Coin burning is the process of permanently removing a portion of a cryptocurrency's supply from circulation. This is done by sending tokens to a special, inaccessible wallet address (called a "burn address").
📉 Why Burn Coins?
Reduce Supply – Like share buybacks in the stock market, burning reduces the total supply.
Increase Scarcity – With fewer coins available, existing tokens may become more valuable.
Support Long-Term Price Growth – A lower circulating supply can lead to higher demand pressure over time.
Boost Token Utility & Confidence – Burning shows commitment to a deflationary model, attracting more investors.
💸 How It Impacts Your Earnings
For long-term holders and investors:
🔼 Price Appreciation: Reduced supply can positively influence price, especially when demand grows.
✅ More Valuable Holdings: If you’re staking, farming, or holding, a burn could increase the value of your tokens.
📈 Earning Programs Benefit: Tokens you lock in Binance Earn or Launchpool may benefit from scarcity-driven price rises.
