# Burn Panel

> Analyze deflationary mechanisms of projects

<Info>
  This feature is only available to **Pro** <Icon icon="square-web-awesome-stroke" /> users.
</Info>

# Overview

The **Burn Page** provides an in-depth view of a project's token burn activity. Burns directly impact token scarcity and supply dynamics, so this page captures every confirmed burn event and aggregates total value, supply offset, and underlying rationale — giving a clear picture of whether a project's deflationary design is structural, sustained, or symbolic.

# Access

You can access the **Burn Page** by selecting any token from the **Burn Screener** or directly from its project profile.

Each Burn Page includes a **summary panel**, a **historical chart**, and a **burn event table**.

# Features

## Using Burn

On the left you'll see an overview summary of the burn information:

* **Total Burn (USD)**: Total value of tokens burned across all burn events, denominated in USD.
* **Total Burn (Token)**: Total number of tokens permanently removed from supply.
* **Supply Offset**: The percentage of circulating (or released) supply offset by cumulative burns.
* **Burn Type**: Classification of the burn mechanism type and methodology.
* **Burn Reasons**: The primary rationale or purpose behind burn events.

The **Burn Chart** visualizes cumulative burns over time, overlaid with token price and burn value in USD.

You can toggle between **7D**, **1M**, **1Y**, or **All Time** views, and switch between **absolute** and **percentage** scaling for supply offset comparisons.

Hovering over the chart displays precise values for each date and cumulative totals. Below the chart, you'll find a detailed table of all the latest 10 burn events.

Each row includes:

* **Date**: Timestamp of the burn event.
* **Burn Value (USD)**: USD value of tokens burned.
* **Burn Amount (Token)**: Quantity of tokens removed.
* **Burn Type**: Mechanism classification.
* **Burn Reason**: Context for the burn.
* **Source / Transaction**: Link to the originating on-chain transaction or record.

## Burn Types

| **Type**             | **Description**                                                                                                                                                                                                 |
| -------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Programmatic**     | Burns that occur automatically according to protocol rules, such as fee burns, validator penalties, or on-chain logic. These are predictable and repeatable mechanisms embedded in the system's design.         |
| **Non-Programmatic** | Burns executed manually or through discretionary decisions by the team, foundation, or community. Typically one-off or periodic, often based on governance votes, treasury decisions, or strategic adjustments. |

## Burn Reasons

| **Reason**           | **Description**                                                                                                                                            |
| -------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Governance**       | Burns decided through community or on-chain governance, such as proposals to reduce supply or allocate treasury funds to burn.                             |
| **Protocol Design**  | Burns that are an inherent part of how the protocol operates. For example, automatic burning of transaction fees or gas fees.                              |
| **Project Decision** | Burns initiated by the project's core team or foundation, often as part of treasury management, tokenomics realignment, or discretionary supply reduction. |
