Burn-to-claim (PFP → tokens)
The destructive flavour of the special-trait utility. The holder sends their PFP to the burn address; the helper mints them ERC-20 tokens linked to the collection's bonding curve.
How it works
The holder calls burnAndClaim(tokenId). The helper checks isSpecial(tokenId) and ownerOf, then transfers the NFT to address(0xDEAD), then calls mint() on the bonded ZillaToken to credit the holder with K tokens. K is set at deploy time and can be a fixed amount or a curve function of remaining supply.
Why a creator would offer this
It transforms a static PFP utility ('I own a Golden Punk') into a dynamic one - holders can choose to keep the PFP for cred, or convert it into governance / fee-share / treasury tokens. The supply of special-trait PFPs only goes down. The token supply only goes up.
Irreversibility
Burning is permanent. The helper sends the NFT to 0xDEAD, not to the creator's wallet - there's no path to recover it. Holders should be sure before they sign. The /claim page surfaces a clear 'this is irreversible' warning + a 5-second hold-to-confirm interaction before sending.
