I like this action very much. Bears are killing xcn out there, the bulls need to be thrown a bone every now and again also to show the true strength of the project.

Hi,

By reducing total supply you mean burning XCN tokens, right?  
To burn tokens from what wallet exactly do you propose?

How about dialing back the monthly releases and letting the price rebound and catch up with demand?

There is no “total supply wallet” 🙂  
When you burn tokens, it’s from some specific wallet, and the wallet owner initiates it.

Timelock, [$0.0024 | Onyxcoin (XCN) Token Tracker | Etherscan](https://etherscan.io/token/0xa2cd3d43c775978a96bdbf12d733d5a1ed94fb18?a=0x8f6ffec54c1e569c63992eb2dc4fae84e3792551:) “The Onyx DAO was granted 15 billion XCN to utilize on advancing blockchain and web3 initiatives to create open finance opportunities via the Onyx Protocol. They are locked inside a time lock smart contract with monthly releases of 200,000,000 XCN per month.”

1. Timelock contract will start to release tokens only from April 2024
2. These tokens are not in circulation, and doesn’t affect supply and demand

There is no reason to burn timelock tokens.

Ok, I understand that now. My question is where are wintermute and falcon x getting tokens from? It seems as they are being given an endless supply? Or is this something that is out of onyx’s control?
