🔥 KUS Token Burning
What (and Why) Token Burning?
Token burning is the process of removing coins from circulation permanently, thus reducing the total supply. The development team for a particular cryptocurrency asset typically performs token burning. This can be accomplished in a variety of ways, the most common being through the use of a so-called "eater address" or "dead address." Although its current balance is visible on the blockchain, no one has access to its contents.
There are several benefits of a coin burn and they are as follows:
- Increase in the value of the token
This is perhaps the most well-known advantage of coin burning. Coin burn reduces the token's overall circulation, thereby reducing the token's overall supply. This could result in an increase in the token's value. The constant burning of the coin contributes to the coin's stability in value.
- A steady value of the token
Constant token burning helps maintain the token's value and also hedges against a long-term price increase. Coin burns have the potential to increase the value of the holder's token relative to its pre-burn value.
