Binance has completed its thirty-seventh quarterly BNB burn, permanently removing 1,646,196 BNB tokens from circulation. The operation was executed directly on the BNB Smart Chain, reducing the total supply by a significant margin and sending the tokens to an address where they cannot be accessed or reused. At current market prices, the destroyed tokens represent a value of approximately $1.2 billion. BNB, the native token of Binance’s ecosystem, undergoes scheduled quarterly burns aiming to decrease the total supply over time. After the most recent burn, the remaining circulating supply stands at 131,512,500 BNB. This supply reduction is part of a broader plan, with Binance targeting the removal of half of the original BNB supply through regular destruction events.
