PolkaWorld votes AYE
Whether or not it ends up being used, we believe this Dark Hole pallet should be deployed first. Technically, it’s simple to implement and allows for token burning without relying on complex governance processes.
While we don’t fully agree with that the Coretime mechanism has “failed” — Coretime hasn’t failed; rather, its mechanism is still under discussion. New cores haven’t been released yet, and existing ones have been allocated to Kusama rollups. Once the mechanism is finalized and the market enters a supply-demand dynamic, the value of Coretime will eventually be reflected.

Hi @olanod , thanks for the proposal. Just one question, aren't the smart contract developers going to be able to develop burn mechanisms themselves on their own contracts? What advantage does having a dedicated pallet for it provide other than a convenience mechanism?
