Token Supply & Burning Pattern (Lifecycle Control)

Design mint/burn rules, capped supply and admin-controlled burn functions

문제

You need fine-grained control over token supply: capped minting, burn mechanisms, or governance-controlled supply changes.

솔루션

Combine a minting contract with burn capabilities. Use a state box to track total supply, enforce caps, and require authorization for supply changes.

작동 방식

  1. 1Deploy a state box holding the minting authority (NFT or special token)
  2. 2Minting contract checks current supply against cap before allowing new mints
  3. 3Burns can happen by omission (not including tokens in outputs) or sending to unspendable address
  4. 4Governance can control mint/burn through multi-sig or DAO voting
  5. 5State box tracks total minted and total burned for transparency

코드 예제

{
  // State box with minting authority
  val stateBox = CONTEXT.dataInputs(0)
  val mintingNFT = fromBase64("MINTING_AUTHORITY_NFT")
  
  // Verify authority
  val hasAuthority = stateBox.tokens.exists(t => t._1 == mintingNFT)
  
  // Supply tracking in state box registers
  val currentSupply = stateBox.R4[Long].get
  val maxSupply = stateBox.R5[Long].get
  val mintAmount = OUTPUTS(0).tokens(0)._2
  
  // Check cap
  val withinCap = currentSupply + mintAmount <= maxSupply
  
  // Governance approval (multi-sig)
  val governanceApproved = atLeast(2, Coll(
    proveDlog(admin1PK),
    proveDlog(admin2PK),
    proveDlog(admin3PK)
  ))
  
  hasAuthority && withinCap && governanceApproved
}

Minting contract with hard cap enforcement. State box tracks supply, governance multi-sig controls minting authority.

사용 사례

  • Deflationary tokenomics (buyback-and-burn)
  • Capped supply governance tokens
  • Fee burning for protocol revenue
  • Proof-of-burn for cross-chain bridges
  • Elastic supply stablecoins

보안 고려사항

  • !Burns are irreversible - double-check amounts
  • !Use multi-sig for governance-controlled burns
  • !Log burn events for off-chain tracking
  • !Ensure state box cannot be destroyed accidentally

수수료 고려사항

Standard transaction fees. State box updates require additional transaction.
