Transaction Fee Sinks

Transaction fee sinks are mechanisms where a portion of the fees paid by users is removed from circulation or directed to a specific pool, effectively acting as a drain on the supply. This is a common way to implement deflationary pressure in a network.

When activity on the network increases, the number of tokens burned or locked away also increases, which can create a positive feedback loop for token value. This mechanism ensures that the cost of using the network directly contributes to the economic health of the token.

It turns network usage into a direct driver of scarcity. This is a powerful tool for aligning user activity with investor interests.
