SolTokenBurnerSol Incinerator is a well-known tool in the Solana ecosystem, but its limitations โ especially forcing full-balance burns and automatically closing token accounts โ make it unsuitable for many users. Projects, developers, LP managers, and everyday holders often need a more flexible, controlled, and wallet-safe solution. There had also been reports of Sol Incinerator being unsafe.
This page explains why SolTokenBurner has become the trusted alternative to Sol Incinerator, and how both tools differ in features, safety, and user flexibility.
Sol Incinerator was originally introduced as a basic interface for burning SPL tokens. Its main function is to burn the entire balance of a specific token and close the associated token account, returning the rent to the user. Multiple functions are executed which is unsafe.
This works fine for simple burns, but it lacks customization and is not ideal for more advanced token management actions โ especially LP token burns or partial supply burns.
SolTokenBurner was created to solve the limitations of Sol Incinerator and has been used across the ecosystem for years. The dApp allows wallet owners to burn SPL or LP tokens instantly with full control over the exact amount burned. Only one function burn() is executed.
| Feature | SolTokenBurner | Sol-Incinerator |
|---|---|---|
| Partial token burns | Yes | No (full burn only) |
| User interface | Simple & Easy to Use | Complex |
| LP token support | Supported | Limited |
| Token account closure | Optional | Required |
| Safety | Uses SPL Token program | Custom on-chain program |
| Execution method | solana/spl-token's burn() instruction | Proprietary code |
| Additional tools | Token creation & management | None |
Yes. All burns are executed directly through your connected wallet โ Phantom, Backpack, Solflare, or others. No private keys, no server handling, and no third-party custody. Each burn is sent as a signed instruction from your wallet to the Solana blockchain, making it fully decentralized.
Sol Incinerator remains a simple tool for basic full-balance burns with questionable legitimacy, but most users today require finer control โ especially developers, LP managers, and community leaders performing public proof-of-burn transactions. SolTokenBurner provides that flexibility while maintaining complete on-chain transparency and wallet-level safety.
