The Cent Tribe is liquidating the CENTG token. The tribe will also stop supporting the HIVE-CentG and Cent-CentG liquidity pools.

I thought I would join the celebration by burning 585 CENT. This burn is worth about $0.438.

The Cent Tribe is currently paying 3000 CENT for 1 CENTG token. In theory the CENT token was supposed to be worth $0.01 USD. So, a CENTG was worth a theoretical $30.00 USD.

To be honest. I never figured out what the CENTG token did. I suspect that it was supposed to be some sort of derivative that would help stabilize CENT while providing passive income for the holders of CENTG.

People create derivatives in a belief that derivatives will stabilize things. Derivatives have a nasty habit of concentrating wealth and destabilizing markets.

Hopefully the liquidation of CENTG will help slow the downward slide of CENT's price.

HIVE Engine tells me that CENT has a supply of 13,693,042 coins which trade at $0.0007 giving a marcap of $9,585. The liquidation of CENTG appears to be increasing the CENT float.

In other news, the CENT Tribe is promoting a burning events. One burns a coin by sending tokens to null@null.

BuyNburn's CENT Burns

NOTE: The buynburn@buynburn account uses the HIVE and HBD earned on posts to buy and burn distressed tokens on #HIVE-Engine. I write each post by hand to qualify for #POB and #VYB awards.

It takes time to write a post. I've only written 31 so far. I've only earned 18 HIVE for the burns.

I've burned 1614 CENT to date. Today's burn will bring me to 2,199 CENT.

Earning coins on HIVE is hard. It took a long time to accumulate this 2199 CENT. Yet, the CENT I've accumulated to date aren't even worth one CENTG!

I will burn all of the funds in buynburn@buynburn. I want to buy and burn distressed coins. I've delayed a few burns because there was a bump in the price of the coin. Selling high and buying low means I can burn more coins with my limited means.

I will keep CENT in my burn cycle until it returns its one cent value.
