Zero fees + sustainable chain = burns must be automatic, fair, and tied to real activity. Nova Chain's NovaBurn Protocol operates across 4 independent layers — burning NOVA continuously, from every block to major milestones.
2% of every block reward burned automatically. At 6-second blocks that's ~14,400 blocks/day. Example: 100 NOVA minted per block → 2 NOVA burned → ~28,800 NOVA burned daily at launch. Never stops.
Failed or vetoed proposals burn their full deposit. Spam proposals burn 100% + validator slash. Successful proposals return deposits. This discourages governance spam and rewards serious proposals only.
Validator misbehavior directly deflates supply. Downtime: 1% slash, 50% burned. Double signing: 5% slash, 100% burned. Repeated downtime: 10% slash, 100% burned. Standard Cosmos slashing redirected to burn address.
Community-triggered burns at growth milestones. 1M txns → 1,000,000 NOVA. 10M txns → 5,000,000 NOVA. 100k wallets → 2,000,000 NOVA. 1M wallets → 10,000,000 NOVA. Each new validator (up to 100) → 10,000 NOVA.
