Burn SPL & LP Tokens on Solana
Token burning permanently removes assets from circulation. Whether you're reducing token supply, locking liquidity, removing spam tokens or cleaning up an old wallet, SolanaBurner provides a simple interface for executing verified on-chain burn transactions.
What Is An SPL Token?
SPL tokens are the standard fungible assets used throughout the Solana ecosystem.
Meme coins, governance tokens, utility tokens and many project assets are issued as SPL tokens.
When an SPL token is burned, the specified amount is permanently removed from the token supply.
What Are LP Tokens?
LP tokens represent ownership of liquidity provided to a decentralized exchange pool.
These tokens are issued when liquidity is deposited and can later be redeemed for the underlying assets.
Burning LP tokens permanently removes the ability to withdraw the liquidity associated with those tokens.
Why People Burn Tokens
- • Reduce circulating supply
- • Lock liquidity permanently
- • Remove unwanted airdrops
- • Destroy inactive holdings
- • Create proof-of-burn records
- • Clean up wallet portfolios
The motivation varies from project tokenomics to simple wallet maintenance.
Full Burns And Partial Burns
SolanaBurner supports both complete and partial token burns.
If you only want to burn part of a position, enter a custom amount in the amount field.
If you want to burn everything, click FULL to automatically populate your entire balance.
- • Custom burn amounts
- • FULL button support
- • SPL token burns
- • LP token burns
The Burn Process
Burning tokens through SolanaBurner only takes a few steps.
- 1. Connect your wallet
- 2. Click Scan Wallet
- 3. Select a token
- 4. Enter an amount or press MAX
- 5. Click Burn
- 6. Approve the transaction
Once confirmed, the selected amount is permanently removed from the token supply.
Reclaiming SOL Rent
Every token account on Solana requires a small SOL allocation to exist.
After a balance reaches zero, the token account can be closed and the reserved SOL returned to your wallet.
This helps reduce wallet clutter while recovering unused SOL.
Verifying A Burn
Burn transactions are recorded permanently on the Solana blockchain.
After confirmation, you can review the transaction through blockchain explorers and verify that a burn instruction was executed.
This provides transparent proof that assets were destroyed rather than transferred elsewhere.
Important Considerations
- • Burns are irreversible
- • Verify the token before approving
- • Verify the amount before approving
- • Review wallet prompts carefully
- • Keep sufficient SOL for network fees
