Separate timestamps, token identity and supply definitions before reconciling explorer, announcement and market-data figures.
A dated arithmetic case: compare two supply snapshots without treating their residual as a verified fee-burn total.
Independent burn flows can be added for the same period. Cumulative counters and totals that already include a component cannot.
Distinguish a successful transfer, an inaccessible balance and a supply-state change before describing tokens as burned.
Trace funding, completed purchases, token destinations and supply changes without confusing one action with another.
A supply reduction does not fix demand, liquidity or valuation. Test the assumptions behind a claimed price effect.
