Stuck Tokens FAQ

chevron-rightWhat are "stuck tokens"?hashtag

Stuck tokens are tokens that were accidentally sent to Solana’s burn (dead) address 1nc1nerator11111111111111111111111111111111 instead of being burned using a proper burn instruction. Because this address has no private key, tokens sent there cannot be transferred, recovered, or interacted with through normal wallet tools.

chevron-rightWhy didn’t my token burn when I sent it to the 1nc1nerator address?hashtag

Sending a token to the 1nc1nerator address does not execute a burn instruction.

On Solana, a true burn requires calling the SPL Token program’s burn method. Sending a token to the dead address only moves it to an inaccessible account—it does not reduce total supply or properly finalize the burn.

chevron-rightIs this address owned by Sol-Incinerator?hashtag

1nc1nerator11111111111111111111111111111111 is a canonical Solana burn/dead address used across the ecosystem. It is not owned, controlled, or operated by the Sol-Incinerator project or any other application.

chevron-rightWhat does the Stuck Tokens tool do?hashtag

The Stuck Tokens tool:

  • Detects tokens that were mistakenly sent to the Solana burn address

  • Properly burns the token using the correct on-chain burn instruction

  • Provides verifiable confirmation via Solana Explorer

chevron-rightCan I recover or sell a stuck token?hashtag

No.

Tokens sent to the burn address cannot be recovered, transferred, or sold. The only possible action is to properly burn them, which is what this tool enables.

chevron-rightIs there a fee to burn stuck tokens?hashtag

Yes.

Burning a stuck token incurs a fixed 0.5 SOL service fee, independent of token type or value. This fee is shown before confirmation.

chevron-rightWhen should I use this tool?hashtag

Use the Stuck Tokens tool if:

  • You manually sent a token to the 1nc1nerator address

  • The token still appears on-chain but cannot be moved or closed

  • You intended to burn the token and want to properly finalize it
