December 17th – ChangeNOW, a crypto management platform with an expanding range of products, announced that it is resuming its regular $NOW token burn program as outlined in its whitepaper. The latest burn occurred on December 17th, permanently removing 210,018 tokens from circulation. The transaction record is available at https://etherscan.io/tx/0x3055a647299dc6dab78e2159450f03937b420befdfea75ee4c286348a8d4b8ab.

This marks the fifth scheduled burn in the history of $NOW and reaffirms ChangeNOW’s long-term plan to gradually decrease the token’s total supply across chains to 100,000,000 $NOW, the level defined in the project’s tokenomics framework. Burns are expected to continue on a quarterly basis.

“Resuming the burn program reflects the progress we’ve made strengthening the $NOW token and the broader ChangeNOW platform,” CSO Pauline Shangett said. “With ongoing updates across our products and services, maintaining a healthy and transparent token economy remains a priority.”

$NOW serves as the core utility token across ChangeNOW’s products, supporting the flagship exchange, NOW Wallet, NOWPayments, NOWNodes, NOW Tracker, and a range of B2B and B2C services. The token enables access to discounted services, staking rewards with automatic compounding, and utility across payments, infrastructure, and portfolio tools.

ChangeNOW’s burn program is designed to gradually reduce the circulating supply of $NOW as the network grows. The company ties these burns to real activity across its products, creating a predictable and transparent framework for managing the token’s long-term supply. All supply figures, burn records, and roadmap updates are published openly, allowing users and partners to track every stage of the process.

The resumed burn comes amid continued expansion across the ChangeNOW product family, including enhancements to NOW Wallet, upgraded functionality in NOWPayments, infrastructure improvements within NOWNodes, and broader utility integrations planned for 2026.
