At the time of the burn, the destroyed tokens were worth about $1.27 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Binance\u2019s token burn utilises an Auto-Burn mechanism, which automatically calculates the amount based on BNB\u2019s prevailing price and the number of blocks generated on BNB Smart Chain during the quarter.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThe BNB Auto-Burn provides an independently auditable, objective process. The figures are reported quarterly, and the mechanism is independent of the Binance centralized exchange,\u201d the foundation wrote in a blog post.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Following the BNB Chain Fusion, quarterly burns now occur directly on BSC, with tokens sent to an irreversible \u201cblack hole\u201d address.<\/p>\n<h2>BNB total supply falls to 136.36 million<\/h2>\n<p>BNB burns aim to gradually decrease the token\u2019s total supply to 100 million BNB, with the latest cut leaving the total supply at roughly 136.36 million BNB.<\/p>\n<p>In the market, a reduction to a token\u2019s circulating supply often means enhanced scarcity and support for long-term value growth.<\/p>\n<p>With BNB, regular burns towards 100 million tokens come amid rising network activity.<\/p>\n<p>BNB Chain has witnessed notable milestones with <a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/bnb-smart-chains-fermi-hard-fork-scheduled-to-launch-in-january-2026\/\">upgrades<\/a> and web3 applications, particularly as real-world assets come on-chain.<\/p>\n<p>The price of BNB rose sharply in 2025 amid this growth, reaching an all-time high above $1,300.<\/p>\n<p>Overall market sell-off, which also saw Bitcoin correct from a peak of $126,000, cascaded to BNB and saw its price fall to under $800.
