The opening month of 2026 brought significant news for the BNB ecosystem. On January 15, the first major token burn of the year was finalized, removing a substantial 1.37 million BNB from active circulation. At current valuations, this represents approximately $1.27 billion in token supply reduction—a meaningful move that continues the network's deflationary mechanics and underscores the ongoing commitment to supply management.

1.37 million BNB was directly burned, 12.7 billion USD... This move is really ruthless. --- Another wave of deflation, BNB's tactics are still the same old story. --- Burning coins sounds fancy, but it's actually just a prelude to cutting the leeks. --- Coming with such a move in January? There are still many stories to tell about BNB this year. --- Deflationary mechanics sound impressive, but in reality... --- 12.7 billion just disappeared, how many people must have been trapped to offset that? --- Supply management? Haha, it feels like they're just creating a story for themselves. --- But all in all, how long this burn can last depends on the market sentiment. --- 13.7 million BNB, this number is quite shocking, whether the market buys it or not is another story. --- Both deflationary and supply management, very abstract.

1. 370,000 BNB burned directly, this move is really skillful, the token price is very stable --- $1.3 billion of deflationary space, indicating that the on-chain ecosystem still has vitality --- What does each burn imply? Does the strategy of supply compression really work? --- The burned amount looks large, but can it really support the token price... I have some doubts --- Coming with such a move in January, BNB might still have a chance in 2026 --- I've heard about volume reduction many times, but 1.27B is indeed a significant amount --- After burning so much, why does the market still feel the same? --- The ecosystem management has nothing to say, it all depends on whether the subsequent actions can realize the value
