Burn — Clear Out What Cannot Be Sold
Some tokens reach a state where no route on Solana will take them, at any size. They sit in your wallet and in your portfolio forever. Reaper finds them and clears them out.

How a Token Becomes Unsellable
A pump.fun token trades against a bonding curve. The curve holds SOL, and that SOL is what pays you when you sell. Buyers put SOL in; sellers take SOL out.
When enough people sell and nobody buys, the curve runs dry. At that point it has nothing left to pay with. Your tokens are still yours, still visible, and completely stuck — the curve cannot buy them back, and no aggregator will route a trade that the curve cannot settle.
Selling a smaller amount does not help. Below a certain level the transaction fees exceed what the curve can return, so every size fails for the same reason.
Clearing Them Out
Reaper reads the curve's actual reserves for every token you hold and works out whether a sell could clear at all. Only the ones where the answer is no appear on the screen — with their symbol and the amount you hold.
One tap destroys them and closes the position. The receipt lists what was burned and links every transaction.
Why a Live Token Cannot End Up There
Destroying something is permanent, so the check runs more than once.
Only dead tokens are listed
The list is built from live curve reserves, not from price history or a stale snapshot. A token that can still be sold never appears.
Reserves are re-read every time you open it
The screen can sit on your phone for days. Opening it again rebuilds the list from scratch rather than trusting what it showed before.
Checked once more before anything is destroyed
Between your tap and the transaction, every token is verified again. Anything that became sellable in the meantime drops out of the batch and is reported as skipped.
What Is Never Burned
Frozen accounts
A token whose account has been frozen cannot be burned at all — Solana blocks it. Shown as a blocked count instead.
Wrapped SOL
Native SOL accounts are excluded by design and never enter the list.
Empty accounts
Nothing to burn there. Closing them and getting the deposit back is Reclaim's job.
Anything still sellable
If a sell can clear at any size, the token is not on the list — even if it is down 99%.
