### Burn Mechanisms <a href="#id-434a" id="id-434a"></a>

The LAND Token has a number of mechanisms designed to remove tokens from supply. Because the mint rate is capped at 10,000,000 tokens, each burn effectively reduces the supply cap of LAND **permanently.** Some examples of burn mechanisms are:

* **RWA Token Purchases:** Each RWA Token purchase will be paid 10% in LAND Tokens, all of which are burned.
* **Elective DAO Burns:** The DAO can vote to burn any number of tokens from its treasury fund, which comprises 2.5% of all tokens generated as well as Auto LAND staking fees.
