BendDAO completed its fourth weekly treasury burn, removing another 50M $BEND tokens from circulation permanently.​

Key milestone achieved:

  • Total of 200M $BEND tokens now eliminated from supply
  • Part of ongoing 5-month plan to burn 50% of treasury holdings
  • Weekly burns continue to reduce circulating supply

The burn is part of BendDAO's three-part strategy approved by governance:

  • Treasury token burns (currently underway)
  • Lender rewards program
  • Future buyback and burn mechanism using protocol fees

Transaction verified on Ethereum mainnet, making the token removal permanent and irreversible.​

This systematic approach aims to create deflationary pressure on $BEND while the protocol continues operating its NFT lending services.​
