Burn Tokens
Burn ERC20, ERC721, or ERC1155 tokens by sending them to the zero address
Enter the contract address of the token you want to burn.
Wallet Required
Token burning is the process of permanently removing tokens from circulation, reducing the total supply. This is achieved through two main methods:
1Native Burn Function
Many tokens implement a burn() function that permanently destroys tokens. This function is specifically designed to remove tokens from the total supply and emits a Burn event.
2Transfer to Zero Address
When a native burn function is not available, tokens can be sent to the zero address (0x0000...0000). This address has no private key, making any tokens sent there permanently inaccessible and effectively burned.
Our tool automatically detects which method to use based on the token contract. It first tries to use the native burn function and, if necessary, falls back to the zero address transfer method.
