You know, when you send some coins into nirvana, they're lost forever - decreasing the supply of said token/coin. Have you ever deliberately burned some of your coins or tokens? What coin was it and why did you do it?

 What are token burns? Coin burns are, to some extent, similar to share buybacks used in the traditional corporate world. Simply put, listed companies buy back their shares from the market, which in most cases results in the shares' price appreciation as those shares are removed from the circulating supply.

I think there are some shitcoins lying in wallet of all of us. I have seen many services where people can transfer those coins to some specific address thereby making their own wallet seemingly clean. But what do you mean by burning? How could a third party burn a coin/ token. I dont think thats possible without tweaking the smart contract

I've done it a few times before to clean my wallet out of worthless airdrop tokens, it's just annoying for me to have token that has no value in the wallet so  i send it it burn address. Other than that i see no reason to burn your token unless you are a dev and want to reduce the overall supply of the token itself.

No, i have never burn my token before, countless of shitcoin are sent to my wallet but i am not bothered by those, if you send them or leave it, it won't affect your wallet. By the time you decide to send them back to smart contract/burn (like you said) you are wasting your precious gas mere doing that. It is better to leave them in as much there is no advantage in burning them so to speak.

I don't think investors or bounty hunters burn their tokens. Even if that's a scam token you have to pay fee for burning and it doesn't worth it.
Developers might burn tokens to decrease the total supply.

I didn't do that. Sad
But I have a lot of wallet addresses forgotten, and there are some altcoin in it, which makes me feel sorry.

I haven't, there was no reason to burn my token. It's the same as burning my money to the nirvana. I have tried to send shit token to the default address and i just try to do that to erase these shit tokens from my wallet because it makes my wallet so ugly dude. As far as i know when you are sending your coin to the default address and it will not decrease the circulating supply and it will be useless,

Why would I do that? I am hacked three times. But I never burned coins on my own. It is ridiculous. I am here to earn money, not burn money.

I've never burned coins or tokens. I don't even know what that means. Can anyone explain? Lol

As far as I know it's basically when you send a large amount of transactions to just eat them up in fees or soemthing so the remaining tokens can never be used, but I could be wrong. Anyways I leave it to the experts!

Nope, I have not done it yet mostly because I own tokens that I am interested in. On the other hand, if the project would be unsuccessful, I have no problem to send them away and burn them forever: I do not need tokens that are just trying to fill the space in my wallet Grin. Yeah, I would pay fees for that transactions. I have totally no problem with that. It is worth to get rid out of worthless coins. In my opinion, just as you know how much money do you have in your wallet, you should know what is in your crypto wallet as well and be disciplined here, just like in every other area of our lives.

I have never specifically sent a coin to nirvana. And I would never send my coins, but if a big player sends, thus reducing the amount and pinching the price I would gladly revisited

I haven't burned any tokens or coins so far. To be honest, I didn't even know there was such a way to burn coins. Interesting information.

What is nirvana and what is their wallet address? please specify all the details, i have few junk, spam or valueless tokens in my wallet but then again if i try to burn them i still have to pay the gas prices myself so i think it will not be worth.

Yes, I'm collecting tokens now, since I believe that you can make a profit precisely because of the tokens of new projects, since these are the most promising coins at the moment...

No, I have not done this ever. There are always some unwanted coins in all wallet. So as I also have some. But I didn't feel to burn it because I have no time to spend behind them. Shocked Shocked

I've heard that ERC20 tokens are burned by sending them to a zero wallet. At least this is what project teams do after the ICO is completed - they burn all unsold tokens.
