WHAT DOES BURN MEAN IN NFT

Burning or "doing Burn" in the crypto and NFT sector refers to removing an asset from the blockchain, whatever it may be.

Depending on the blockchain, this burning can be done in one way or another and will have different effects.

In the case of Solana, for example, it is very common to burn SPL Tokens and NFTs since we will receive a small amount of SOL in return.

In blockchains such as BSC it is very common to establish token burning, for example in NFT games to reduce the token supply.
