# Welcome to Nitro

$NITRO is a fast-burning hyper-deflationary token that gains value with every buy and sell transaction. The burning mechanism is designed to progressively reduce the total supply of tokens through each buy or sell transaction. Given the initial limited supply of $NITRO, this approach ensures that the floor price steadily increases, driven by the ongoing removal of $NITRO tokens from circulation.

The team behind $NITRO has strategically planned and designed tokenomics in a way that will keep burning $NITRO tokens forever on the blockchain. 

As the number of $NITRO tokens continues to fall due to the burns a phenomenon called supply shock might occur, this phenomenon will rapidly increase the price of each individual $NITRO due to scarcity as the total supply rapidly diminishes. 

Join the fastest burning token on ERC20 and watch the $NITRO flames burn for eternity.
