On December 27, 2025, PayWall.Tel completed a key preparation step: burning 900 million PAY tokens, representing 90% of the total supply. This is a critical milestone as the project transitions from test period to official launch.

Why Burn 90% of Tokens?​

PAY token test period supply was 1 billion tokens. During the test period, we needed sufficient tokens to verify system functionality—including automated USDT conversion, multi-channel distribution, and token burning mechanisms. Now that the test period is ending, these test-purpose tokens have served their purpose.

The decision to burn 900 million tokens is based on several considerations:

  1. Return to real demand: Large test-era token supply was for system verification, not needed for official operations
  2. Optimize supply structure: 100 million circulation with $0.001 initial price better matches early-stage market scale and distributes system ownership more fairly among holders
  3. Reasonable valuation reserved: Supply more closely matches early project stage, leaving growth room for the future. As business growth drives demand increase, token value can be more fully realized

Burn Results Confirmed​

🔥 Blockchain Transaction Proof

  • Burn Amount: 900,000,000 PAY (900 million)
  • Transaction Status: ✅ confirmed

Token Supply Change​

Before burn:  1,000,000,000 PAY (1 billion)
Burned:        900,000,000 PAY (900 million)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
After burn:    100,000,000 PAY (100 million)

This is an irreversible operation. These 900 million PAY tokens have been permanently removed from the Solana blockchain and cannot be recovered.

Note: PayWall.Tel automatically burns a portion of PAY tokens with every order. Therefore, the actual circulating supply you see on blockchain explorers will be below 100 million. This is part of the normal deflationary process.

Pre-Launch Preparations​

This token burn is one of several preparation steps before official launch. Coming next:

  1. Documentation updates: Update token supply info in whitepaper, website, and data platforms
  2. Community announcement: Publish burn transaction proof to community
  3. Final system testing: Ensure all functions run stably in production environment
  4. Demo channel launch: Establish first batch of demo paid channels
