Does Burn & Earn actually burn my LP tokens?

No, and it is worth being precise about this because the name says otherwise. Burn & Earn is Raydium's term for a permanent lock: your LP tokens are moved into Raydium's lock program and a Fee Key NFT is minted to your wallet. Nothing is destroyed. What makes it equivalent to a burn in practice is that the underlying liquidity can never be withdrawn again — by you or anyone else. If you want the LP tokens genuinely destroyed and their supply reduced, use the LP tab of our token burner instead.

Should I burn LP tokens outright or use Burn & Earn?

Both make the liquidity permanently unpullable, so the deciding factor is fees and pool type. Destroying LP tokens forfeits your share of all future trading fees and works on any Raydium LP, including AMM V4. Burn & Earn keeps those fees claimable but only covers Raydium CPMM pools and leaves you holding a transferable Fee Key NFT that a buyer could later ask about. A meme coin that wants the simplest possible story usually burns; a project that expects real volume and wants the fee revenue usually locks.

Can I burn AMM V4 LP tokens with this tool?

Not with the Burn & Earn tool on this page — Raydium's lock program does not support AMM V4, so V4 positions will not appear in the list even when your wallet holds them. You can still burn them outright: our token burner recognises both AMM V4 and CPMM LP mints and groups them under its LP tab, where burning destroys them the same way it destroys any SPL token.

What is the Fee Key NFT and what happens if I lose it?

It is the NFT minted to your wallet when you lock. Only its holder can harvest fees from the locked position, so it functions as a deed. If you send it to another wallet, that wallet earns the fees from then on. If you burn it or lose access to the wallet holding it, the fees stop being claimable by anyone — the liquidity stays locked either way. Do not treat it as a spare NFT during a wallet cleanup.

Can I undo a burn or a lock?

No. Destroying LP tokens and locking them are both permanent and irreversible on-chain. There is no recovery path, no support request that reverses it, and no time period after which the liquidity unlocks. Confirm you have selected the right position and the right amount before you approve.

Can I lock only part of my position?

Yes. The lock dialog lets you set the share of your LP balance to lock, so you can commit part of the position and keep the rest withdrawable. Anyone inspecting your token on-chain can see how much is still withdrawable, so a partial lock is a weaker signal than a full one — it is a real choice, not a formality.

Why is my liquidity position not showing up?

Three usual reasons. The pool is an AMM V4 pool rather than a CPMM pool, so Burn & Earn cannot reach it. The LP tokens are in a different wallet than the one connected. Or the pool was created moments ago and the indexer has not caught up — reconnect or refresh the position list and try again.

Why is the Harvest button greyed out?

Harvest is disabled until the position has unclaimed fees on both sides of the pool. A freshly locked position, or a pool with very little trading, will show a pending balance too small to harvest. It is not a failure state — the button enables itself once enough volume has passed through the pool.

How much does burning or locking LP tokens cost?

SolTokenCreator charges no platform fee for either. Destroying LP tokens costs the Solana network transaction fee. Locking costs more, because the transaction also creates the accounts behind the Fee Key NFT and its metadata, and those accounts require rent. Your wallet shows the exact figure for your transaction before you approve it.

Will explorers show my liquidity as burned or locked?

They show what actually happened, and the two paths are not identical on-chain. Destroying LP tokens reduces the LP mint's supply; locking moves the LP into Raydium's lock program while supply stays the same. Screeners and safety checkers read that state directly and label it accordingly, so check your token's page once the transaction confirms rather than assuming a particular badge will appear.

Burn LP Tokens on Solana

Make your liquidity permanently unpullable — either by destroying the LP tokens outright, or by locking the position with Burn & Earn and keeping the trading fees.

There are two ways to do this on Solana and they are not the same thing. Burning destroys the LP tokens and forfeits their fees, and works on any Raydium pool including AMM V4. Burn & Earn — Raydium's name for a permanent lock — moves a CPMM position into a lock program and mints you a Fee Key NFT so the fees stay claimable. Both are irreversible. Pick the one that matches your launch.

Choose Your Path

Which One Do You Need?

Both permanently prevent the liquidity from being withdrawn. They differ in what happens to your trading fees and which pool types they cover.

Burn the LP tokens

Destroys them and reduces the LP mint's supply. Works on any Raydium LP token, including AMM V4. You give up all future trading fees on the burned share.

Lock it with Burn & Earn

Moves the position into Raydium's lock program and mints you a Fee Key NFT, so the fees stay claimable. Raydium CPMM pools only — AMM V4 is not supported by the lock program.

Burn vs Burn & Earn: What Actually Differs

Despite the name, Burn & Earn does not destroy anything. Here is the honest comparison.

	Burn LP Tokens	Burn & Earn Lock
What happens to the LP tokens	Destroyed, supply drops	Held by Raydium's lock program
Can the liquidity be withdrawn after?	Never	Never
Trading fees on that liquidity	Forfeited permanently	Stay claimable
Pool types covered	Any Raydium LP, incl. AMM V4	Raydium CPMM only
What you hold afterwards	Nothing	A transferable Fee Key NFT
On-chain cost	Network fee only	Network fee + NFT account rent
Reversible	No	No

Before You Lock: the Fee Key NFT Is the Deed

A Burn & Earn lock mints an NFT to your wallet. That NFT — not your wallet address — is what entitles the holder to claim fees from the locked position. It is transferable, which has two consequences worth knowing before you approve the transaction:

Send it to another wallet and that wallet claims the fees from then on. There is no way to claim from the original wallet afterwards.
Burn it, or lose the wallet holding it, and the accrued and future fees become unclaimable by anyone. The liquidity itself stays locked regardless.

If a permanently locked position with a live, sellable fee stream is not what you want, burn the LP tokens instead — nothing is left behind to manage.

How to Lock LP Tokens With Burn & Earn

Connect the Wallet Holding Your CPMM LP Tokens

The tool below reads Raydium CPMM positions from your connected wallet. AMM V4 LP tokens will not appear here — Raydium's Burn & Earn program does not support AMM V4. Burn those outright with the token burner instead.

Pick a Position and How Much to Lock

Choose the pool, then set the share of your LP balance to lock. You can lock the whole position or part of it; whatever you leave unlocked stays withdrawable.

Approve the Lock Transaction

One wallet signature moves the chosen LP into Raydium's lock program. From that point the underlying liquidity can never be withdrawn again — not by you, not by anyone.

Keep the Fee Key NFT You Receive

The lock mints an NFT to your wallet. It is the only thing that can claim fees from the locked position. Transfer it and you transfer the fee stream; burn or lose it and the fees are unclaimable forever.

Harvest Fees Whenever They Accumulate

Locked positions keep earning while the pool trades. Harvest becomes available once there are unclaimed fees on both sides of the pool; small balances need more trading volume first.

What the Burn & Earn Tool Does

Permanent, Not Withdrawable

The LP you lock is held by Raydium's lock program. The liquidity behind it can never be pulled out again, by you or anyone else. That is the trust signal — and it is irreversible.

Fees Stay Claimable

This is the difference from destroying LP tokens. A destroyed LP token forfeits its share of trading fees permanently. A locked position keeps accruing them, and you harvest whenever you like.

Raydium CPMM Positions

The tool lists CPMM pools. Raydium's Burn & Earn program does not cover AMM V4, so V4 LP tokens will not show up here — those are burned outright with the token burner.

Fee Key NFT

Locking mints a transferable NFT to your wallet. Treat it as the deed to the fee stream: whoever holds it can claim, and there is no recovery if it is sent away or destroyed.

Full or Partial Locks

Lock the entire position or a percentage of it. Partial locks leave the rest of your LP balance withdrawable, which is visible on-chain to anyone checking your token.

No Platform Fee on This Tool

SolTokenCreator does not charge for locking or harvesting. You pay the Solana network fee plus rent for the accounts the Fee Key NFT needs, so a lock costs more on-chain than a plain burn.
