Storage Map v101 → current

Burn registrations in current interval.

The Big Picture

Burn registration requires paying TAO instead of computing POW. BurnRegistrationsThisInterval tracks how many chose this method. Despite the name, the TAO isn't destroyed - it's swapped into the subnet's liquidity pool (SubnetTAO), and the Alpha received is burned.

Why This Matters

How much TAO is being spent on registration? This count × current Burn cost = TAO spent this interval. The portion that's actually burned vs recycled depends on subnet config.

Example Scenario

Query BurnRegistrationsThisInterval(netuid=1) returns 3. Burn cost is 10 TAO. So 30 TAO was spent on registration. That TAO went into the subnet's liquidity pool.

Common Questions

Is burned TAO gone forever?: Despite the name, TAO isn't destroyed. It's swapped into the subnet's liquidity pool (SubnetTAO), and the Alpha received is burned. The TAO stays in circulation.

Use Cases
