BNB Burn

How does it work?

BNB adopts an Auto-Burn system to reduce its total supply to 100,000,000 BNB. This mechanism adjusts the burn amount based on BNB's price and the number of blocks on BNB Smart Chain (BSC), ensuring transparency and predictability.

BNB Reimbursement

The BNB Pioneer Burn Program reimburses lost coins and counts them towards the official burn count.

Gas Fee Aspect

BNB utilizes a real-time burning mechanism tied to gas fees. A fixed ratio of collected gas fees is burned in each block, determined by BSC validators.
