Decentralized token folios (DTFs) are tokenized bundles of crypto assets, or a digital portfolio you can tweak on-chain. The Reserve Protocol, powered by RSR, crafts what’s in the portfolio to offer crypto diversification, according to the assets’ price and size.
Interestingly, the recent 1.28 million RSR burn event has brought bullish sentiment on how it would impact the crypto price and the protocol’s future.
The first burn, which happened exactly a month ago, did come with a promise of monthly repeats. The goal is to shrink RSR’s supply and nudge its value up by slashing supply and bumping demand. With the next burn lined up for today, June 20th, we are about to see how this plays out in real time.
It’s official: The first-ever $RSR burn is in the b̶o̶o̶k̶s̶ blockchain 
At 15:29 UTC, 1.28M RSR was sent to a burn address, marking the first of a monthly burn of Index Protocol fees
The next burn is scheduled for June 20

RSR Crypto Price To Soar Today
DTFs come in two options: Yield DTFs, which focus on generating returns through lending or staking, and Index DTFs, which spread investments across various crypto trends. Both are backed by assets and redeemable anytime. They give users the flexibility to jump in or out as they please.
RSR, the native token, serves double duty as collateral for stablecoins and a governance tool. In addition to the scheduled monthly burns, RSR stakers have a say in protocol decisions as part of its governance use.

Price-wise, RSR is now sitting at $0.0065, a 4% pump on the day, leading to the scheduled crypto burn. Although the burn might not have an immediate fast pump effect, the recurring nature could build value over time.
The RSR price peaked at around $0.026, or just a little more than 4x today’s price. Today’s burn could blast its price to a new high.

Why Reserve Protocol?
The protocol’s design includes safety nets with a mechanism to handle collateral defaults. If an asset falters, RSR stakers will cover losses, protecting DTF holders. This balance of risk and reward keeps the ecosystem around.
The process uses Dutch auctions with a four-phase price drop to manage sales and prevent manipulation. This strategically ensures fair value as assets are liquidated or redeemed.
How to avoid token bias
Step 1: don’t pick tokens
Step 2: pick an index
Step 3: chill

RSR’s role extends beyond governance; it lets holders influence basket changes or upgrades. Fees from these operations fund the burns, creating a self-sustaining loop. It’s a clever way to tie token utility to ecosystem growth.
Whether the burn will spark a price move again is yet to be seen. But, with 1.28 million tokens already off the table, the cumulative effect likely strengthens RSR’s position.
