Does Stellar’s 55bn token burn disprove the deflationary thesis?
Yesterday, Stellar Lumens carried out a massive and unexpected XLM token burn. According to the Stellar Development Foundation, “a diverse family of entrepreneurs, developers, innovators, thinkers, and builders” gathered in Mexico City and apparently decided there were too many XLM tokens in circulation. So, they went ahead and burned 55 billion. What happened next? The need for a 55bn Stellar token burn The general thesis circulating the cryptocurrency community is that token burns are enormously effective at increasing value. They restrict the supply of the altcoin in question which then positively impacts its price due to the basic laws of supply and demand.

Coin RivetA healthy scepticism of Twitter giveaways
Giveaways in the industry of cryptocurrencies have always been straddled with issues. We had the ETH scam-bot giveaways whereby they would appear on famous Twitter feeds requesting ETH and promising to return more. We had the Waltonchain giveaway to its own employee. And now, we have Justin Sun giving away Tesla cars to, well, no one. This doesn’t mean that all giveaways in the cryptocurrency industry are scams. Stellar gave away plenty of their token when they partnered with blockchain.com. Even Coin Rivet has run a competition, but in doing so we have proven that this was an actual, legitimate competition. Other competitions or giveaways are quite clearly bogus though. The ETH scams that ran during the bull run were The post A healthy scepticism of Twitter giveaways appeared first on Coin Rivet.
