How to Burn Tokens on Ethereum Network in 3 Easy Steps
Published: 03.02.2025Author: CoinFactory
What is “Burn Tokens in Ethereum”?
In Ethereum (and other blockchain networks), burning tokens refers to the process of permanently removing tokens from circulation. This is done by sending them to an unspendable address (often called a “burn address” or “zero address”), from which they can never be retrieved.
🔥Why Burn Tokens?
- Reduce Supply — Lowering the total supply of tokens can make the remaining tokens more valuable (if demand remains constant or increases).
- Increase Scarcity — Similar to stock buybacks, burning tokens can create scarcity, potentially driving up price.
- Transaction Fee Burning (EIP-1559) — Ethereum itself burns a portion of transaction fees, making ETH more deflationary over time.
- Project Utility — Some crypto projects use burning as part of their tokenomics (e.g., play-to-earn games, DeFi protocols).
