# Burn Mechanism The **$YEET** SPL token will be burned aggressively in order to maintain the health of the token and the Yeet ecosystem. We will burn a portion of all **$YEET** used within our ecosystem. Below are some examples of how and when the token will be burned: * YeetDAO mints with **$YEET** * Wen holders use **$YEET** to buy trait upgrades in The RizzShop * Wen holders buy raffle tickets with **$YEET** for quality NFTs / traits / 1:1s / high demand WL * Wen holders use **$YEET** for auctions * Wen holders spend **$YEET** to use external tools --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
