it is a good step for XLM to burn some of their coin supply to increase prices in the market, I think in a very large supply will affect the price which makes the price also more difficult to improve. I hope the steps taken by the XLM team can be good.
This is a good move indeed for this project to burn some of xlm supply. By knowing that supply to be lessen I have a hopes on this coin since I am one of those who hold XLM until now. I believe it will have an impact to boost the price in the market.

It shows how this coin is centralized, when team could decide what happens with half of its supply, then we can´t talk about decentralization.
Many people push Ripple to do something similiar, if they do that, then XRP token will be an interesting investment opportunity because see how XLM pumped after this announcement.
They did this for them to survive and its true that a centralized coin can really this kind of actin anytime they want. If XRP make an update like this, for sure they hype on this coin will be high again and someone can manipulate its price. Burning XLM with a half of their supply is the latest good updates with them, the hype is still on so buy and play short.

in that way there may be hype, but need to be careful with price manipulation as you say. don't get carried away with hype, I think if the market demand is big, hype will emerge, unless you have a way to handle it

Xlm coin burn really impressed me and the burn really increased the volume, I am happy the team recognized how potential this platform is and worked towards heading to its mate. It was a shocking news to all and it's what crypto is. I hope and wish to see XLM moon to 1$ soon. They really deserve it and should get in there soon. Congrats to you guys, more winning, more moon.

I missed the big news again. It is worth noting that XLM reserves were burned, not those coins that are already circulating. But even this fact did not prevent XLM to grow in price. The project is certainly worthy.
XLM no advanced notice in these move that makes us missed it, those who really trust and believe in stellar potential got a right decision of still having it. It might not be in their plan or roadmap but it will give importance to their holders to still keep them since the supply is lessen and can be limited soon. If Stellar will put more interesting update their product and token can continuously pump since they been trying to increase their price.

Yes, supply have a lot of impact with the price and value of one coin.
If I remember it correctly PundiX (NPXS) does the same with their token.
from millions they added 3 more Zeros and it went to billions making the price lower than it could possibly had.
The largest was .1 USD per NPXS before the swap and then it became .00001 afterwards when it hits the market which should have been just .0001 adding 3 zeros also.

Im glad to see the devs burning the tokens instead of just dumping on investors for their own gains.

Xlm price over the year is still down by a lot. Been smashed 6 ft down to the ground. So i don't see this pump as anything special.  Needs to be above 20 cents to get back to were it was a year ago which was bad as well,  neck deep in the bear market.

Stellar XLM burnt half of their total supply to help boost the current XML market price. But I'm afraid the people are no longer interested on buying Stellar XML. People tend to focus on what is selling, the most profitable coin in the market and as of now it is bitcoin. 

Bitcoin is always the most profitable, stellar goes up and down by mere cents or fractions of cents. When bitcoin moves, hundreds, or even thousands of dollars can be gained or lost. Not to mention that it still controls what other coins do. So yeah, regardless of what happens to stellar price, i think bitcoin is the way to go for anyone who doesn't want to experience second-hand market behavior.

I knew this will happen since XLM collaborations with Coinbase.

Half of the XLM supply is gone. The team has burned about 55BXLM, do you think this is a good step for the tokenomics

It is a good step for the tokenomics since it will reduce the number of total supply and thereby have some positive impact in the price of XLM.

For me, does supply really have much impact on token price? Token demand is crucial regardless of the supply number

I agree with you that token demand is crucial regardless of the supplied amount but research has shown that coin with infinite amount of supply always have low price value and vice-versa.

Those some large amounts of XLM, I'm sure they have some other plans other than burning their huge supplies. they really need to do something now, with the tight competition in the market, the higher the chance that they will left behind by the other developed project. XLM is better than XRP when it comes to their technology, but when it comes to the price TRON and XLM are left behind because of their lack of development. When you see the Ripple's developers they doing the best they could to continuously promote their project and also with the help of investors XRP remains on top of them.

XLM is indeed the best altcoin which has helped me to use it real time with my business transactions and way better than XRP which honestly has not proved it's worth since the last bull run. I would always vouch for XLM and TRON but we cannot compare XLM and XRP even though they have similar characteristic still XRP is controlled and centralized. Anyway this is a great move by XLM to pump up.

 Burning such amount of tokens from the total supply is a very good move to help investors. But heifer this can reflect on the price, there has to be a demand for XLM. If the team is not making any good moves on developing the project further, then I don't seen this having any impact on the price.
NPXS for instance burns tokens every quarter yet price is tanking daily. Basically, burns should be facilitated with good developments to create demand.

It was great that I trusted and invested in XLM. I did not expect that they would burn half of the coin's total supply. I was very surprised when they did that. And the value of XLM has increased dramatically along with the FOMO of the community. I will continue to keep and invest in XLM in the future because I really love the team.

I think stellar price thats increase more than 25 percent yesterday gonna dump again when keybase airdrop with 2 billion xlm or almost $ 162 million USD distribution, lets see the prediction can this big airdrop dump stellar price more than 10 %?

The pump is finished now. But it was a long spike the token burning caused. Such huge amount getting burned one time. That was a risky step done by the Stellar development team. But it sure was accepted by the community as a good decision. Hence the strong pump despite the rest of the market in red. The dump might be caused by the investors gaining big from the quick pump.

Burn coin sometimes can affect on price, but cannot be settled or so on so this step will only have an impact in short term, the further development and market conditions will also be a determining price in which direction.

It's only good if wins publicity and attracts people to buying some of the remaining stellar. Otherwise it's a useless gesture.
Burning coins themselves can attract the attention of the public, especially crypto lovers see that developers consider it important to destroy some of their coins to keep supplies from getting too large in the network, which often causes the price to be difficult to rise.
XLM will start distributing its latest airdrops via keybase account and will run for 20 months, which means it will make the amount of their supply in the network back a lot, so the developer steps to burning some of it as a good step.

That is not fully tokenomics. That is simply lowering the supply with the hope that the lower supply will somehow meet the demand and will increase the value of the Stellar token. Tokenomics is creating a consistent and sustainable environment for the investors to continue supporting Stellar and its products. A sound tokenomics will attract more investors. A burning is a just a one-time act that does not guarantee the continuous demand for XLM. It will cause a pump though if it involves a large amount such as what Stellar is burning right now.

If a commodity is very useful then demand will be created properly. That's the law.
What I see in XLM is that they can still make demands for people so that when the supply is reduced, the price surge will definitely occur because of its limitations. Demand is created because of the development that continues from the beginning until now. Yes, of course, towards better and more complex things. And that's what I saw in XLM from the very beginning they came out until now.

Wow i HOPE it affects the price atleast, 55b is a huge number, it reminds me they had way too many coins to begin with : /
Uh, yeah I'd say if 55 billion coins represents *half* of the supply, there's probably way too many circulating.  If you ever wondered why dogecoin never seems to be able to break out of the 20 sat range, that's the reason, and doge has about 122 billion coins floating around currently.

But even if they wiped out those 55 bln coins, there still has to be a demand for the remaining ones.  It's a nice reduction on the supply side, but demand is something they can't control.  You might think that this would boost the price, but unless people keep buying XLM there's going to be little change, at least in the long term. 

Burning supply would probably increase market price, but I don't think its effects would last.
Right, I agree.  There might be a little rally based on this news, but as I said unless there's a sustained interest in the coin there's not going to be much of a long term effect.  I also don't know how popular it is.  I've heard of XLM here and there but I've never really heard anything great about the project.

Well burning of coins will be good on our side and the team why because of the law of demand and supply when the supply get smaller the demand increases and the price increases but if the supply gets bigger the demand decreases and the price decreases i think that the xlm team strategy is good since the price of it got decrease and their supply is very big burning them would be the best option to increase the price.

Token burning is usually intended to minimize the total supply available at this time and thus they hope that with limited supply and high levels of demand, this can have a major impact on the growth of their token prices. However, on the other hand we also need to see the real use case from the use of their tokens. So far XLM has quite interesting utilities and a very routine and up-to-date development. I can hope this can attract the attention of new investors who want to invest in this project in the long run instead of just looking for short-term profits.

Burning supply would probably increase market price, but I don't think its effects would last. As soon as the prices would soar, people would just dump their holdings which would bring the prices back down. It's just for temporary hype and for hopes that it would revive its market. But for me, once it becomes irrelevant and people moved on to another coin in the market, without real progress and advancement in the technology and adoption, there's just little chance that it would get back up.

50 billion XLM burning to make price is up, I think is crazy doing by developer how to make stellar coin on higher price, last day the developer xlm team have announce with burning coin and price up to 30%, many people get much profit with trading in xlm last day. I late know which information talk with xlm burning coin more than 50 billion coin.

It does give a huge impact to the token price and you can see after the team has already burned the coins and then the price of stellar is increasing drastically. that means what has already done by the team gets a positive reaction from the market. It's a good thing to see that the company is not greedy like XRP. It looks like that ripple must learn from stellar consider about it has more than 60% premined coin.

in some news have already mentioned if the stellar will be focussing to build the price of token. that's why the company has decided to burn a lot of supply. I like this model of tokenomics rather than focusing on the platform.

Awesome from the team that they had burned 55 billion of its XLM tokens, yes, it will have impact with the price for sure, we many not see it now, but we can see its impact once the demand continuously increasing, after they burned it for sure massive marketing will be their next big thing that will be announced, they are now getting competitive over the market, it's quite interesting now as I am not a fan of XLM before, but now beginning to watch it.

will certainly have an impact also on the price of tokens let alone that burned very much 55b.
maybe it won't have a big impact right away but I'm sure demand will be high on XLM and slowly the price will increase.
What's more, XLM is the top 10 altcoins in CMC.

The largest supply of the tenth-based cryptocurrency market capitalization, Stellar lumens (XLM) has literally been on the burn 50% of the Total supply in unprecedented steps in the history of the blockchain. This has resulted in a huge surge in price for altcoins, which now trades up to 20 percent in the last few hours.

Steller has had some interesting airdrops over the years, so many i lost count, and my tokens too haha
I should look into finding those, or snagging some in market, XLM has been in production so long its GOT to do something eventually, maybe 2020 will be big for it...
