You should set it up so that people can send cryptocurrencies that are provably burned. Then you could pay something to no one to send nothing to someone.

  Clever. Of course then they wouldn’t be making money. Anyway, what’s truly “provably” burned? Might as well send them an individualized clip of a Lincoln or Jackson being set on fire.

    A provably burn address has an improbable chance of having a known private key. Here are well-known burn addresses for bitcoin and ethereum: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/1111111111111111111114oLvT2 https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/111111111111111111111... https://etherscan.io/address/0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dead https://etherscan.io/address/0x00000000000000000000000000000... Just send crypto to these addresses and they will be forever lost.
