Definition
Burning tokens permanently removes them from circulation. On Solana, the SPL Token program has a native burn instruction that decrements the mint's supply. There is no way to recover burned tokens.
Founders burn to reduce dev supply, reward holders (deflationary burns), or clean up unused mints. MakeMeACoin exposes a burn tool for wallet-signed SPL burns.
