Sonic destroys tens of millions of tokens, unclaimed airdrops become the final distribution

2026-01-18 13:32:10

【Blockchain Rhythm】Sonic ecosystem makes another big move. According to the latest developments, the project team has successfully burned over 16 million S tokens using a fully permissionless smart contract mechanism, in accordance with the established plan. These burned S tokens were the unclaimed portions from the first quarter airdrop campaign. In other words, addresses that did not claim their airdrop on time will see their tokens disappear. This method of burning is quite interesting—it is fully automated by on-chain smart contracts with no centralized approval process. For the Sonic ecosystem, this means the circulating supply is further reduced, and the token supply outlook is now clearer.

16 million burned directly, this is true deflationary, unlike some projects that just talk but don't act Not claiming airdrops and ending up losing money is your own fault, this is the cold reality on the chain Sonic's recent operation is quite transparent, with the contract executing automatically, which is great, no need to look at the project team's face It should have been like this a long time ago; dragging out airdrop claims is the most annoying The circulating supply shrinking is a positive, suddenly I’m a bit optimistic about this ecosystem

Haha, laughing to death. Once again, no airdrop claimed and directly confiscated. This move is indeed brilliant.

16 million tokens are gone directly. Not claiming airdrops really results in a loss.

Those who didn't claim the airdrop deserve it. I was the one who claimed it on time, so it's awesome.

16 million unclaimed tokens are directly burned, that's pretty harsh. --- Missing the airdrop deadline means it’s gone forever. Now we need to keep a close eye on the schedule. --- Automatic on-chain burning, no one can manipulate it. This part is quite transparent. --- Reducing circulating supply sounds good, but I wonder if new tokens will be issued later. --- Why is no one complaining about Sonic’s burn mechanism? It feels a bit aggressive. --- So, don’t miss the claim deadline, or it’s really goodbye. --- This operation is actually a benefit for token holders, as scarcity increases.
