Why burn?
The burn mechanism creates a transparent supply sink linked to real protocol activity. It is small enough to keep purchase pricing readable and large enough to be visible over many transactions.
Burn protocol
Every official purchase removes PHN from circulation.
The PHN sale route applies a 2% token-side fee. From that fee, 0.25% of gross PHN is burned permanently and 1.75% routes to treasury operations. Buyers receive the remaining 98%.

What gets burned?
The burn is based on gross PHN output, not the payment currency. If a purchase calculates 10,000 PHN before fees, 25 PHN is burned and 9,800 PHN goes to the buyer.
What is not automated?
We do not execute wallet transactions without explicit user confirmation. All burns tied to purchases must be performed by deployed contracts and visible on-chain.
Implementation notes
- PHN token uses ERC20Burnable, so burn() permanently reduces token balance and total supply accounting.
- The presale contract computes BURN_BPS = 25, TREASURY_BPS = 175, FEE_BPS = 200 over a 10,000 BPS denominator.
- The burn page is informational and calculator-based. The actual burn must be verified through transaction logs and explorer data.
