How to Burn Tokens on Solana (Complete Guide)

Burning tokens permanently removes them from circulation. This is commonly used to reduce supply, remove unwanted tokens, or improve token economics.

What Does Burning Mean?

Burning destroys tokens by removing them from your wallet and reducing total supply.

Step 1: Connect Wallet

Go to the Burn section in SolanaLab.
Connect your Solana wallet to access tokens you own.

Step 2: Select Token

Choose the token you want to burn from your wallet.

Step 3: Enter Amount

Specify how many tokens you want to burn. Make sure you double-check the amount.

Step 4: Confirm Transaction

Click on 'Burn' and approve the transaction in your wallet. Once confirmed, the tokens are gone forever.

Note: Wallets may display a warning to prevent you from burning tokens which have market value. Confirm only if you understand that burning permanently removes the tokens from circulation and the action cannot be undone.
