Recently, many projects have announced the burning of coins, but not everyone understands what this means.
This is a process by which cryptocurrency miners or developers get rid of a certain amount of tokens by sending them to addresses that are not accessible to anyone. The burning of coins is being implemented not because of the low viability of the project, but rather because of the desire of the creators of cryptocurrencies for great prospects.
Thus, the developers are trying to reduce the total number of available coins, while the created shortage affects the growth of their value.
The burning of coins can talk about the upcoming expansion of the project and a possible increase in its value. For example, after the recent announcement of a collaboration between Polygon and Newscrypto, the latter announced that they decided to burn $ 10M worth of NWC tokens this year. Consequently, in the near future, we can see a significant growth of NWC price on this news. What do you think about burning coins? Does this really affect the market value of the coins?
Well the original idea of a burn was to reduce supply and increase value, this has been abused.
You'll see projects launching with supply of 1000 000 000 000 000 with a price per token of $0.00001 which will attract many gamblers, and then once ido is over, you burn half of the supply and your value increases
