To redeem Universal tokens, the Merchant must call the burn
function in the smart contract, specifying the exact amount of tokens to be burned.
When the burn
function is executed:
The specified token amount is deducted from the Merchant’s on-chain Universal token balance.
The total supply of Universal tokens is reduced accordingly.
Upon successful burning:
The Merchant exchanges the burned Universal tokens for an equivalent amount of the underlying asset.
The total circulating supply of Universal tokens decreases, ensuring a fully collateralized and transparent redemption process.
