Remove liquidity

Burn Liquidity is a powerful feature provided by Greenrock that enables users to permanently destroy their LP (liquidity provider) tokens. By doing this, the liquidity in the associated Raydium pool becomes locked forever, which is often used to enhance trust and decentralization in a token ecosystem.
Irreversible LP Removal: Burning removes LP tokens from circulation permanently.
Signal of Trust: Proves that the developer can no longer withdraw liquidity (i.e., no "rug pull" risk).
Decentralization: Ensures liquidity is permanently available to traders.
Token Address
The address of the SPL token (e.g., your project's token).
Quote Address
The base token paired with your token (typically SOL or USDC).
Liquidity Selector
Four quick options to select the portion of LP to burn: 25%, 50%, 75%, or 100%.
Burn Liquidity Button
Executes the transaction to burn the selected portion of LP tokens.
Fee Notice
States that the burn action costs 0.1 SOL, the lowest fee in the Solana ecosystem.
Suppose you launched a new meme token called $SHIBA2X and created a liquidity pool with SOL. After generating some momentum, you want to burn 100% of the LP tokens to lock the liquidity and build investor confidence.
Here’s how you’d use this interface:
Token Address: SHIBA2X123abc...xyz
Quote Address: So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112 (SOL)
Select 100% to burn all your LP.
Click Burn Liquidity.
Approve the transaction in your wallet.
🎉 The liquidity is now permanently locked on Raydium. Traders can buy/sell freely, but nobody can pull liquidity out.
This is permanent – make sure you don’t need that liquidity again.
Gas fee is 0.1 SOL, clearly displayed.
Burning small % (like 25%) can also be used in stages for marketing events or tokenomics control.
Displayed liquidity options ensure ease of use, especially for non-technical users.
When you burn LP tokens, you're sending them to a null address (0x00...dead), which means those tokens can never be recovered. Since LP tokens represent your share of the pool, burning them removes your claim to any tokens in that pool forever.
