Deflationary Tokenomics

Definition

Deflationary tokenomics refers to a cryptocurrency’s economic model designed to decrease its total supply over time. This reduction in supply is typically achieved through mechanisms such as token burning, where a portion of transaction fees or other tokens are permanently removed from circulation. The aim is to increase the scarcity and, theoretically, the value of the remaining tokens, counteracting inflationary pressures. This economic design influences investor behavior and the long-term price trajectory of a digital asset.
