# Burn Mechanism

### A53 Token: Items/ Land

Profit from NFTs sale

**A53's token burn mechanism is governed by an active burn schedule, but it is also influenced indirectly by game actions:**

* When the user updates the NFTs -> the old NFTs are burned and replaced with new NFTs.
* When users create NFTs using Quantum 53, the old NFTs are burned and replaced with new NFTs.
