JST Just Reached a New Milestone đ
On Jan 15, 2026, JustLend DAO permanently burned 525M JST.
This brings the total JST burned to 1.08B tokens nearly 11% of the total supply in under 3 months.
And make no mistake this wasnât driven by hype, dilution, or empty promises.
It came from real, transparent protocol profits:
đ° ~$10.2M from Q4 earnings
đ° ~$10.3M from accumulated reserves
Thatâs over $21M returned directly to JST holders â permanently.
Why This Matters:
$JST is quietly evolving.
â From âjust a governance tokenâ
âĄïž Into an equity-like asset backed by real cash flow
Every quarter, as JustLend generates revenue, JST is bought back and burned.
The supply shrinks. Value compounds.
Simple. Automatic. Powerful.
Ecosystem in Motion:
The burn is just one reflection of a growing, productive network built on TRONâs original vision of high-speed, scalable, and low-cost blockchain infrastructure:
đčïž $7B+ TVL across lending markets.
đčïž 9.3B TRX staked via sTRX earning yield without lockups.
đčïžEnergy Rental demand surging after fee reductions, increasing protocol efficiency.
đčïžGasFree Wallet processed $46B+ in volume, saving users $36M+ in fees.
đčïžUSDD TVL crossed $1B in less than 2 months
How it works:
Revenue flows â Buybacks happen â JST supply contracts â Value compounds.
This mirrors TRONâs design principle: productive blockchain networks create real economic incentives while maximizing user participation.
Market Impact:
đ JST market cap surpassed $400M.
đ Trading volume jumped ~22%.
đ Price climbed double digits in the month
As supply contracts, each $JST carries more voting power, giving long-term holders greater influence and scarcity.
