# Burning Tokens

### Token Burning Operations

```rust
// 3. Burn tokens

    let burn_payload = TokenBurnPayload {
        chain_id,
        nonce: current_nonce,
        recipient: sender_address, // Burn from sender's own account
        value: TokenAmount::from(500000000000000000u64), // 0.5 tokens
        token: token_address,
    };
    current_nonce += 1; // Increment for next transaction

    match client.burn_token(burn_payload, private_key).await {
        Ok(response) => {
            println!("Tokens burned - Tx: {}", response.hash);
        }
        Err(e) => {
            print_detailed_error("Could not burn tokens", &e);
        }
    }
