What’s the difference between traditional burning and buyback airdrops? Why did Virus choose another path?
In the crypto market, as soon as anyone talks about “deflation,” most projects first think of two words: burning.
Send tokens to a black hole address to reduce circulating supply and create scarcity expectations—this is a traditional path that has already been validated by countless projects.
Virus chose another way: trading generates fees, the fees form a buyback, and the Virus obtained from the buyback doesn’t all go into the black hole—it’s further distributed to more BNB Chain addresses. One option is to “remove” tokens from the world; the other is to spread tokens to more wallets. On the surface, they both handle tokens in the market; in reality, they represent two completely different growth philosophies: traditional burning solves “how to reduce supply,” while buyback airdrops solve “how to expand the network.”
