Token supply mismatch: build a reconciliation ledger
Separate timestamps, token identity and supply definitions before reconciling explorer, announcement and market-data figures.

The 36th BNB burn: reconcile the supply snapshots
A dated arithmetic case: compare two supply snapshots without treating their residual as a verified fee-burn total.
Auto-Burn and BEP-95: when burn totals can be added
Independent burn flows can be added for the same period. Cumulative counters and totals that already include a component cannot.
What a burn address proves, and what it does not
Distinguish a successful transfer, an inaccessible balance and a supply-state change before describing tokens as burned.
Token buybacks and burns need different evidence
Trace funding, completed purchases, token destinations and supply changes without confusing one action with another.
Why a token price can fall after a burn
A supply reduction does not fix demand, liquidity or valuation. Test the assumptions behind a claimed price effect.
BNB on opBNB and Ethereum: does it add to total supply?
BNB shows up on opBNB and in a legacy ERC-20 contract on Ethereum. Adding those balances to the BSC figure double counts. Read the bridge contract, the official swap notes and a node query you can repeat.
Is staked or locked BNB burned? How to count it in total supply
Over 25 million BNB sits in BSC validator staking contracts, and the old TokenHub cross-chain contract holds a similar amount. Both can be withdrawn, so neither comes off total supply. Contract evidence, node queries and the size of the error if you subtract them.
