True burn, not a dead address

The distinction matters because every downstream number depends on it — FDV, circulating supply, percentage-of-supply figures. A dead-address transfer leaves totalSupply intact, so anything computed from it silently overstates the float. The interface never conflates the two, and the market page shows cumulative burned tokens as a supply reduction.

One transaction

The burn is executed inside the swap, by the hook. There is no scheduled bot, no keeper, no later action, and nothing for the creator to remember to do. If the buy succeeds, the burn happened.

Mechanically the hook takes the burn amount out of the PoolManager as part of settling the swap and calls the token's burn. The TokensBurned event carries the pool id, the token and the amount.
