Burn Barrel

Why wait for zero when zero can come to you?

Your bag has suffered long enough. Tired of watching it bleed out one red candle at a time? Checking the chart every morning, hoping, refreshing, and coping? There is a better way. Toss it in the barrel, say a few words, and get on with your life.

Toss SAL in to burn it

A burn is permanent. Nothing tossed in comes back, and nothing can be refunded.

Why the barrel

No minimumBurn a whole bag or a single atomic unit. The atomic unit turns to ash, but we respect the gesture.

Fully automaticTen blocks to unlock, a minute to catch, and then it is gone. No paperwork, no waiting period, no second thoughts.

Self cleaningThe smoke is paid out of the fire itself, so nothing is left behind except, now and then, a little ash.

Never sealedReal burn barrels do not have lids, and neither does this one. It will be here when you are ready.

But wait, there's more! Every toss comes with a free, permanent, public record of your decision. Frame it. Show your grandchildren. Explain it to your accountant.

How it works

Each toss is kindling until it unlocks after 10 blocks. Within a minute of unlocking, the barrel burns everything it can in one Salvium burn transaction, and the ledger links each toss to the burn that took it.

The network fee for a burn is the smoke. It comes out of the burn itself, so the barrel holds nothing of its own, and what was tossed always equals what burned plus the smoke, plus anything still kindling, embers, or ash.

A toss too small to pay a whole burn fee on its own sits as embers and goes up with the next bigger toss. A toss worth less than the fee for adding it to a burn is ash. No wallet will spend it, so it stays in the barrel for good, counted here but never burned on chain.

If the wallet ever shows an outgoing transaction that is not a recorded burn, the barrel stops burning and says so at the top of this page.

Check it yourself

Every burn is public. A Salvium burn transaction carries its burned amount in the clear, so anyone can open a burn on the explorer and see exactly what went up in smoke, no keys needed.

If you tossed something in, find your toss in the ledger by its transaction id, check the amount against what you sent, and follow it to the burn that took it.

Burns are final. That is the product. Smoke goes to the miners. Ash stays in the barrel, counted, forever. No refunds, no customer service, no takebacks, and no grief counseling. Not financial advice, barely even finance. Side effects may include closure, relief, a sudden urge to touch grass, and a permanent public record. Results permanent.
