Token Burns and Buybacks, Explained

Projects often talk about “burning” tokens or conducting “buybacks.” Both are supply-management tools, and both are frequently misunderstood.

What burning does

Burning permanently removes tokens from circulation by sending them to an unusable address. All else equal, reducing supply can support price — but all else is rarely equal, and burns are sometimes more marketing than substance.

Buybacks and the bigger picture

A buyback is when a project uses revenue to purchase its own token. Like burns, it can signal confidence, but it does not create value on its own — the underlying demand and usage still matter most. Treat supply mechanics as one input, not a reason to buy.
