Stellar burned 55 billion Stellar Lumens (XLM), the new mandate of its network’s development states. According to the announcement made by the Stellar foundation, this drastic reduction of the number of lumen tokens (XLM) in existence by the development foundation is a part of the intention to improve the effectiveness of the foundation work.
