How to reclaim SOL with Burn the SOL

Burn the SOL connects to your wallet through a secure adapter, so you sign every transaction yourself and never share your private key. Here is the whole flow, start to finish.

  1. 1

    Connect your wallet

    Open Burn the SOL and connect your Solana wallet (e.g. Phantom). Using a Telegram trading bot like Bonkbot, Trojan, or GMGN? Import that bot wallet into a browser wallet first, then connect.

  2. 2

    Review your token accounts

    The app scans your wallet and lists empty or worthless token accounts that still hold reclaimable SOL rent, along with the estimated amount you can recover.

  3. 3

    Select what to clean

    Pick the accounts you want to burn and close. Keep anything valuable, unknown, or still tradable — burning is permanent.

  4. 4

    Burn and close

    Click Burn. The app builds a transaction that burns the leftover tokens and closes their token accounts so the rent can be returned.

  5. 5

    Approve in your wallet

    Check the token list, estimated SOL, and fees, then approve the transaction in your wallet. Reject it if anything looks different from what the app showed.

  6. 6

    Get your SOL back

    Once the transaction confirms, the reclaimed rent (~0.002 SOL per fungible token account, 0.01 SOL per NFT) is sent straight back to your wallet by the Solana network.
