Since the very launch of Axiome, the development team has managed only one wallet, which is the company’s sole wallet. View it in the [block explorer](https://axiomechain.org/address/axm1ytal6q2qc3rkha3x24m4ynh9nvzmpkm8lucq00). All remaining AXM issuance is owned and controlled by Axiome community users.

## Burning AXM

There are four ways to burn AXM:

### 1. **When activating Premium (always)**

Each time a user pays for a Premium subscription, 50% of the amount is burned and the remaining 50% is allocated to the Community Pool.

### 2. Burning upon undelegation (always)

With every undelegation of AXM, you pay a 10% fee on the amount being undelegated, which is subject to instant burning 30 days after the undelegation is initiated.

### 3. Burning network fees (always)

All AXM-related transactions incur network fees. Of each fee, 30% is burned, and the remainder is distributed as delegation rewards (the [share of network fees](https://docs.axiomeinfo.org/axiome-chain/pages/eQeAguH0AYAZIuhREAcU#id-2.-share-of-network-fees)).

### 4. Buyback-and-burn from [Axiome Futures](/axiome-trade/axiome-futures.md) profits

Every week, 10% of the trading fees collected on Axiome Futures will be used to buy back AXM and burn it immediately.
