JST Just Reached a New Milestone 🚀
On Jan 15, 2026, JustLend DAO permanently burned 525M JST.
This brings the total JST burned to 1.08B tokens nearly 11% of the total supply in under 3 months.
And make no mistake this wasn’t driven by hype, dilution, or empty promises.
It came from real, transparent protocol profits:
💰 ~$10.2M from Q4 earnings
💰 ~$10.3M from accumulated reserves
That’s over $21M returned directly to JST holders — permanently.
Why This Matters:
$JST is quietly evolving.
❌ From “just a governance token”
➡️ Into an equity-like asset backed by real cash flow
Every quarter, as JustLend generates revenue, JST is bought back and burned.
The supply shrinks. Value compounds.
Simple. Automatic. Powerful.
Ecosystem in Motion:
The burn is just one reflection of a growing, productive network built on TRON’s original vision of high-speed, scalable, and low-cost blockchain infrastructure:
🔹️ $7B+ TVL across lending markets.
🔹️ 9.3B TRX staked via sTRX earning yield without lockups.
🔹️Energy Rental demand surging after fee reductions, increasing protocol efficiency.
🔹️GasFree Wallet processed $46B+ in volume, saving users $36M+ in fees.
🔹️USDD TVL crossed $1B in less than 2 months
How it works:
Revenue flows → Buybacks happen → JST supply contracts → Value compounds.
This mirrors TRON’s design principle: productive blockchain networks create real economic incentives while maximizing user participation.
Market Impact:
📈 JST market cap surpassed $400M.
📊 Trading volume jumped ~22%.
📈 Price climbed double digits in the month
As supply contracts, each
$JST carries more voting power, giving long-term holders greater influence and scarcity.
