[Ethereum Community Launches BETH Tokenized ETH Burn, Joseph Lubin Announces Development on It] Foresight News reports that the Ethereum Community Foundation has announced the launch of BETH tokenization. BETH is a new proof-of-burn token for Ethereum, designed to transform the fundamental mechanism of burning ETH into an on-chain tokenized form. Each BETH token represents ETH that has been verified as removed from circulation, establishing a transparent and auditable burn record while providing developers with new opportunities to design applications based on verifiable burns. When users send ETH to the contract, the ETH is immediately forwarded to a burn address, ensuring its permanent removal from circulation. After successful forwarding, the contract mints an equivalent amount of BETH tokens and sends them back to the sender, maintaining a 1:1 correspondence between burned ETH and minted BETH. Ethereum co-founder and Consensys CEO Joseph Lubin shared the announcement, expressing high praise for the team's work and noting plans to develop on tokens such as BETH, BBETH, and BBBeth. Lubin stated that burning ETH will become a highly profitable activity capable of spawning new industries. He also highlighted that this mechanism could serve as an interesting feature in Web3 gaming, where players could be rewarded through this process.
