- BTT BitTorrentBurn
BitTorrent now shows every BTT burn on its own tracker.
BitTorrent burned 21.62 trillion BTT on Oct 16 2026, bought with about $7.6 million of its July to September revenue. On Oct 23 2026 it opened a page that lists each burn with its on-chain record. People now ask how big the next burn will be when it comes in mid-January.
BTT supply research → - CC Canton CoinBurn
Canton approved a plan for every synchronizer to burn CC.
On Oct 23 2026 Canton's Super Validators approved CIP-0129, called Universal Burn. Today, traffic on private synchronizers burns nothing. Under this plan every production synchronizer burns CC for its traffic at $60 per MB, with lower prices for big users. People ask when the burn starts, and if it will be big enough to slow the growth in CC supply.
CC supply research → - ETHFI ether.fiBuyback
ether.fi's ETHFI buybacks are running below plan.
A report on Oct 26 2026 found the buyback runs at a fixed $225,000 a week, about $975,000 a month, or about 27% below the plan of about $1.33M a month. By Oct 18 2026 it had bought about 1.81M ETHFI, and nearly as many were paid back out as card rewards. People ask if buybacks will grow with the Cash card business.

A big FF unlock lands on Oct 29.
About 203M FF, roughly 6% of the coins already out, is due to leave locked team, investor, foundation and ecosystem wallets on Oct 29 2026, the largest unlock on this week's calendars. Under a vote passed in September, the team and investor part stays staked for three months. People ask how much of the rest will be sold.
FF supply research → - JST JUSTBuyback
JUST changed how JST buybacks are paid for.
On Oct 23 2026 JUST said future JST buybacks will be paid from the ecosystem's regular quarterly revenue, under JUST DAO votes. The treasury keeps at least $50 million as a safety reserve, and about $20.34 million above that will go into buybacks step by step from Q4 2026. People ask whether steady revenue can keep the burns as big as before.

JUST's Q3 report shows 170.7 million JST burned in the quarter.
The Q3 report, out on Oct 26 2026, says 170,723,144 JST (about $23.5 million) were bought back and burned in Q3. Since October 2025, five rounds have removed about 1.88 billion JST, or 19.01% of the starting max supply. People ask how large the next rounds will be now that the old revenue reserve is used up.
JST supply research → - LDO Lido DAOBuyback
Lido's LDO buyback is running, but holders want it faster.
On Oct 27 2026 the Lido team said more than a third of its fourth buyback batch, 1,000 staked ETH, has already been swapped into LDO, with a deadline of Nov 24 2026. LDO trades near $0.38, and holders on the forum keep asking why the buying is so slow when the price sits under the batch's ceiling.
LDO supply research → - PENDLE PendleBuyback
Pendle's buyback passed 3 million PENDLE.
On Oct 27 2026 Pendle said its fee buyback has now bought more than 3 million PENDLE since sPENDLE started early this year, about six times what it hands out as V2 rewards. The bought PENDLE goes to sPENDLE stakers. People ask whether that pace can hold while Pendle's fees are far below last year.
PENDLE supply research → - PIEVERSE PieverseUnlock
The first team and investor unlock lands on Nov 14 2026.
PIEVERSE's one-year lock on team and investor coins ends on Nov 14 2026. From then on about 16.67M coins a month vest for them, and public unlock calendars put the whole Nov 14 release near 33M PIEVERSE once community and foundation shares are added. People ask whether these early holders will sell, since many investors bought at under 7 cents.
PIEVERSE supply research → - SHIB Shiba InuBurn
SHIB burns jumped sharply, but from a very low level.
On Oct 28 2026, the daily SHIB burn rose by more than 400,000% in one day, the biggest jump this month. But only about 1.4 million SHIB were burned, worth just a few dollars at about $0.000005 per coin. People ask whether burns this small can matter for a coin with hundreds of trillions of tokens.
SHIB supply research → - UNI UniswapBurn
Uniswap now routes trades through other exchanges, and those fees help burn UNI.
On Oct 22 2026 Uniswap made Aggregator Hooks live on Ethereum, Base and Robinhood Chain. They pull in 7 outside liquidity sources that cover more than 90% of DEX activity on those chains. Trades sent through them pay protocol fees that go toward burning UNI. People ask how much extra UNI this could burn each month.
UNI supply research → - WLFI World Liberty FinancialNew supply
The USD1 stablecoin supply keeps shrinking.
The supply of USD1, World Liberty Financial's dollar stablecoin, fell from about $4.43 billion on Oct 5 2026 to about $3.9 billion by Oct 28 2026, a drop of about 12%. WLFI itself is down about 9% over 30 days, near $0.052. People ask why holders are cashing out USD1 and whether it cuts WLFI's income.
WLFI supply research → - XPL PlasmaUnlock
The monthly XPL unlock landed on Oct 25.
On Oct 25 2026 Plasma released about 227.8 million XPL to its ecosystem fund, team and investors, the first monthly release after the big September cliff. Reports on Oct 27 and Oct 28 2026 said most of the newly freed coins had not moved yet. People ask whether the new holders are holding or just waiting to sell.
XPL supply research → - ZEC ZcashNew supply
A Zcash co-founder wants to stop paying grants from new coins.
On Oct 26 2026 co-founder Sean Bowe published a draft proposal to end the 8% share of each new block that goes to Zcash Community Grants. He says the grants group already holds over $125M, and the 8% would go to the network's sustainability reserve, kept out of circulation, until the current funding period ends in 2028. People ask if fewer new coins handed out would mean less selling pressure on ZEC.
