Datamine Network has reached significant milestones in its decentralized monetary ecosystem, demonstrating strong participation in its unique deflationary model. ## Record-Breaking FLUX Burn Rates During December, a historic 71.05% of all minted FLUX has been permanently destroyed from circulation. Out of 628,000 minted FLUX tokens, 446,000 tokens (valued at over 250,000 USD) have been burned. In the Datamine ecosystem, burning FLUX is a core mechanism that allows validators to boost minting rewards and optimize system stability. This high burn rate reflects active on-chain participation and a strong commitment to managing token supply inflation. ## High-Value DAM Lock-In Metrics Alongside the FLUX burn milestone, the ecosystem's foundation token, DAM, has seen unprecedented locking activity. Currently, 76.94% of the lifetime DAM supply—valued at over 1,000,000 USD—is locked into the Layer 1 smart contract. Locking DAM is the sole mechanism used to mint FLUX. This high percentage of locked tokens severely restricts the circulating supply of DAM, proving that the community is heavily invested in generating long-term passive yield rather than speculative trading.
