Burn Solana Tokens with Backpack

Backpack users can connect to BurnerSOL, scan unwanted SPL tokens, and approve only the burn or close actions they understand. The flow stays non-custodial from start to finish.

Connect Backpack only when ready

Open BurnerSOL, connect Backpack, and let the scanner read token accounts tied to the public wallet address. BurnerSOL never asks for a seed phrase or private key.

Review token details first

Check the token name, mint address, balance, image, dust signal, and suspicious metadata warning before selecting anything. Unknown links in token metadata should not be opened.

Burn versus close

Burning destroys token units. Closing an eligible empty token account can return rent-exempt SOL. BurnerSOL keeps both actions visible so you can decide deliberately.

Approve inside Backpack

The final transaction prompt appears in Backpack. Read the account list and reject the prompt if it contains an action you did not expect.

After confirmation

Refresh the wallet view and check the summary. On-chain burns are final, so the safest workflow is slow, visible, and manual.
