Introduction

XDB CHAIN launched its first Branded Coin in June 2024 and completed the first BBB burn event (#1) on July 1, 2024, following two earlier burn activities totalling 1.025 billion XDB since the network launch. Burn events run on a quarterly basis and every event is published with its on-chain transaction reference. The total supply is the sum of circulating supply and treasury supply of XDB locked by the project.

Burn Event #5

The fourth burn event took place on July 1, 2025, following the successful Token Generation Event (TGE) of CBPAY in June 2024. CBPAY was the very first BCO launched on XDB CHAIN, and it has successfully launched its revolutionary platform CBPAY Global, the later RSH-powered addition to the XDB CHAIN product ecosystem. RSH stands for reward, spend and hold. This event, compliant with BBB rules, committed to burning 62,500,000 CBPAY tokens over each quarter over a multi year time frame. The BBB mechanic worked as follows: with an average sales price of $0.0001311 per CBPAY, the 62,500,000 CBPAY tokens generated $8,193.75. The funds were then used to repurchase XDB coins at an average price of $0.0006844, resulting in 11,972,165.40 XDB being permanently burned. This built-in strategy aims to manage the CBPAY supply over the next years through quarterly events, assuming CBPAY’s market cap remains in the Tier 1 range of 0-50 million dollars. If the market cap of CBPAY increases relative to XDB and beyond 50 million USD, the BBB process will burn a higher share of XDB coins, also potentially increasing the sale of CBPAY beyond 62,500,000 by quarter to exhaust the 2.5% pledged supply over a shorter period of time.

Summary of Burn Event #5:

Branded Coins issued on XDB CHAIN allocate up to 2.5% of their supply to recurring XDB burns. Burns run quarterly through dedicated public burn addresses — every event is numbered, published, and auditable on-chain.

Official BURN Address and Impact on Supply

The balance of the official burn address has been updated following Burn Event #5, the fourth BBB event on XDB CHAIN after the launch of CBPAY. The burn address now holds 1,246,209,593  XDB CHAIN native coins (XDB), reducing the total supply by 11,972,165.40 XDB to 18,765,762,572 XDB coins. You can view the transaction details TRX Link

This move further reduces the circulating supply, from 17,057,062,634 to 17,045,090,469. 

Recap of Official BURN Parameters:

How Burning Works on XDB CHAIN

By submitting transactions on the XDB CHAIN network with specific parameters like zero weights and thresholds, developers can invalidate keys, including the master key, preventing further transactions and token creation. This is how token BURN works on XDB CHAIN This feature, primarily for developers, can significantly impact the overall supply of the cryptocurrency. Detailed information on this feature is available in the official XDB CHAIN documentation with the launch of XDB Chain v19.

Creating a “BURN” Address (Technical Instructions)

Developers can create a “locked address” to burn tokens. Once transferred, these tokens become unusable in any future transaction. This process involves setting the weights and thresholds to zero, creating a scenario where all keys, including the master key, become invalid, effectively locking the account forever.

Conclusion

Burn #5 is now complete! Get ready for Burn #6, scheduled for October 1, 2025, at 2 PM UTC. XDB CHAIN continues to grow, building a sustainable ecosystem that consistently reduces token supply as adoption expands.
