Token economics

BNB has a deflationary design: the network regularly burns (destroys) a portion of the supply through an Auto-Burn mechanism and gas-fee burns, targeting a maximum supply of 100 million BNB.binance+2
This burn process is algorithmic and transparent, adjusting the amount burned based on factors like BNB price and BNB Smart Chain block activity.forbes+1
