$RUNE
 just burned. Total supply is now 360M, within 3% of circulating supply. 

MC/FDV at 97%. That's down from 1 billion at launch, to 500M, to 360M today.

5% of all fees keeps burning daily. 
$RUNE
 is deflationary by design.

Voice command. No KYC. No exchange account. No seed phrase

That's what 
@StationWallet

@THORChain
 makes possible when

And
