"The implementation of the BNB Auto-Burn is a natural next step in BNB’s journey and will help the BNB community grow through providing greater autonomy, transparency and predictability."
Essentially, the Auto-Burn system adjusts accordingly to contemporary prices of the coin, and burns the appropriate amount of BNB. On the 18th burn, which was performed on January 17th, a total amount of 1,684,387.11 BNB was removed from circulation.
After the burn, the price of BNB has not seen any major fluctuations, sitting at an average of $472.11, with a 2.65% drop in the past 24 hours.
