Recently, I came across a pretty interesting deflationary token project. They claim the main token can go up to $100, and the sub-token can reach $1,000,000 each. It sounds exaggerated, but the mechanism design is actually quite something.



Starting with the main token, it undergoes daily burn and destruction, with the circulating supply continuously shrinking. Once this process starts, it can’t be stopped—it’s hardcoded into the contract rules. The sub-token's mechanism is even more extreme: they directly remove the liquidity pool and then burn the tokens, effectively locking the supply cap for good. From the data, the sub-token price has indeed been climbing steadily lately. There are still fluctuations, but the overall trend is upward.

These three mechanisms combine to form a theoretical deflationary spiral: supply keeps decreasing, and as long as demand keeps up, price has support. Of course, whether it can actually reach those sky-high prices is another question, but at least the logic makes sense. Right now, prices are still relatively low, so those on the sidelines might regret missing the early entry opportunity.

The burn mechanism sounds exciting, but how many tokens can actually reach a million? Haven't there been enough lessons from history?

Hardcoded burns sound tough, but don’t forget that demand is what really matters. If nobody’s buying, how’s the price going to go up? Sky-high dreams sure are tempting, but every project can spin the same tale. No matter how good the early entry story sounds, in the end, it’s all about luck. Subtokens removing liquidity and locking up supply—I’ve seen this trick too many times. Sounds great, but what’s the reality? A million each? That’s some wishful thinking, but there’s still a market cap ceiling right there. Is the math really that simple? Getting in at the bottom is definitely tempting, just worried it’s another new way to fleece retail investors.

Here comes the same deflationary theory again. Sounds nice, but how many can actually survive a bear market? If supply decreases but demand doesn’t keep up, it still goes to zero. Don’t forget what happened with Luna. It’s even more ridiculous when sub-tokens pull liquidity. How are you supposed to cash out?

A million each? Haha, figure out the liquidity pool situation before bragging. All that pulling liquidity and burning tokens stuff looks fierce, but it's actually just a death trap, and anyone buying in gets screwed. There's definitely something to the mechanism design, but the term "deflationary spiral" has been overused. Burning has never truly been what supports the price. No point regretting getting in early. All the current FOMO is just yesterday’s lesson.

It's the same deflationary spiral narrative again, how many times have we heard this? Is it really possible not to fleece retail investors this time? Removing liquidity from the sub-token—if you put it nicely, it's locking the supply; if you put it bluntly, it's the standard move before a rug pull. $1,000,000 per token? Dream on, or maybe I just don’t dream enough. Regret missing out on getting in early? Ha, someone says that every cycle, and in the end, they all get caught. The burn mechanism sounds exciting, but if demand can’t keep up, it’ll still crash—nobody wants to discuss that issue. I believe the price is still low, because nobody wants to be the bag holder. On paper, the deflationary spiral is always perfect, but in reality, it’s always stories of people running off early.

Removing liquidity and burning is a ruthless move, but the key is still whether someone will take over. Hard-coded burning sounds romantic, but in reality, it depends on whether it can siphon off enough value to survive. $1 million each? Haha, let’s wait and see—everyone getting in at these low levels is just gambling. The mechanism design is indeed ingenious, but I’m worried latecomers will be left holding the bag. With no liquidity, how does the price even form? Something about that just feels off. It’s tough to break through in the early stages. Without a narrative, pure deflation is useless. Reduced supply ≠ increased demand; that’s a pretty big logical flaw. It looks like they’re building a perfect price trap. Once the contract is locked in, it can’t be changed even if you want to. The bet is that eternal deflation can save the day.
