Burning a Collection

When you create a collection, the name, the symbol, and the description of the collection are permanently recorded on the blockchain. If you made a mistake while creating the collection or want to change this information for any other reason, you must burn that collection and create a new one with the desired changes.

Artists can only burn the empty collections

You can only burn collections that do not have any NFTs in them. If you have not minted any NFTs from a particular collection, you can burn it without an issue. However, if you have minted tattoos from a collection, you must burn all of the tattoos in that collection first, before burning the collection on the blockchain.

Important: If you ever sold an NFT from a particular collection, you can no longer burn that collection. Any sold NFTs will be transferred to the collectors’ wallets. The only way for an artist to burn a tattoo they have previously sold is to first buy back that tattoo on a secondary marketplace.
