🧪 Living Case Study – Feature 23: Buyback Efficiency Let’s break it down simply 👇 🔍 What’s happening? Since Feb 24, the system has burned 3.9M $XTN. That’s ~89K per day being removed from supply. But here’s where it gets interesting 👀 🟠 Phase 1 — Fast Reaction Price jumped hard: $0.040 → $0.067 (+67%) 🔥 Burn rate was strongest here (~130K/day) 🟠 Phase 2 — Growth Mode Price kept climbing to ~$0.078 📉 Burn slowed down (~93K/day) 🟠 Phase 3 — Balance Price stabilized around ~$0.074 ⚖️ Burn dropped further (~76K/day) 📊 The key insight As price goes up → buyback removes less $XTN Why? Because the system uses a fixed 20 $WAVES per block. Higher price = fewer tokens burned 🧠 But market behavior is kicking in now On Mar 31, a ~800K $XTN sell-off hit the market. Price dropped… and quickly recovered ⚡️ 👉 That tells us one thing: There’s real demand absorbing supply at these levels 📌 What it means • Buybacks are still working (supply keeps shrinking) • But their impact is no longer dominant • Market players are starting to matter more ❕ What drives the next move? 👉 Buyback pressure or Holder behavior? ➡️ Data source: burn, price
