( BNB ) that will replace its current quarterly flaring process. This was announced by the company in a statement on Thursday.

The new mechanism, called BNB Auto-Burn will burn BNB tokens automatically based on a formula consisting of blockchain data of the total number of blocks generated and the average BNB price.

In the statement, Binance explained that it was replacing its quarterly burning protocol the set of rules that define interactions on a network, usually involving consensus, transaction validation, and network participation on a blockchain. in response to user requests. The new mechanism also seeks to provide greater “transparency and predictability”. to the community, the company added.

It should be noted that the term “burning” refers to a process to permanently eliminate a cryptographic token by taking it out of circulation; thus reducing its supply and potentially increasing its price.

New burning mechanism for BNB

Currently, Binance has two mechanisms for taking BNB out of circulation. One is the real time burning of a percentage of the gas a term used on the Ethereum platform that refers to a unit of measuring the computational effort of conducting transactions or smart contracts, or launch DApps in the Ethereum network. It is the “fuel” of the Ethereum network. *see Gas Limit and Gas Price. rates in the Binance Smart Chain (BSC). The second is the quarterly burn based on the “Pioneer Burn” Program from Binance which will be replaced by the BNB Auto-Burn mechanism.

The BNB cryptocurrency is used to pay transaction fees on BSC and allows holders to make exchanges, and participate in the protocols running on that chain.

Under the new mechanism, flaring processes will be based on price and supply-demand dynamics for BNB using BSC chain information. Then, as the price of BNB falls, the amount of BNB burned increases to ensure that the value removed remains constant and independent of market an area or arena, online or offline, in which commercial dealings are conducted. movements.

It will be carried out continuously and will not depend on the revenues generated in the centralized a centralized organizational structure is one in which a single node or a small number of them are in control of an entire network. exchange of Binance through the use of the native token. The mechanism will stop when the total circulation of BNB falls below 100 million.

According to the statement, BNB Auto-Burn is also designed to encourage the development of a “ healthy blockchain a distributed ledger system. A sequence of blocks, or units of digital information, stored consecutively in a public database. The basis for cryptocurrencies. ecosystem “and will serve to better reflect its use in the Binance Smart Chain. A spokesperson for Binance commented on the matter to CoinDesk :

Our announcement of BNB Auto-Burn is a natural next step in BNB’s journey and will help the BNB community grow by providing greater autonomy, transparency and predictability.
