What does LP burned mean?
Also called: Burned liquidity, LP burned, Burnt LP
The liquidity-provider tokens for a pool have been destroyed, so nobody can withdraw that liquidity again.
When someone adds liquidity to a standard AMM pool, they receive LP tokens that represent their share. Whoever holds those LP tokens can redeem them for the SOL and tokens in the pool. Burning them (sending them to an address with no owner, or using a burn instruction) means that share of liquidity is stuck in the pool for good.
Launchpads often burn the pool's LP automatically when a token migrates from its bonding curve. A 100% burn on the main pool removes the most common hard-rug method: pulling the liquidity.
Burning only applies to pools that issue LP tokens. Concentrated liquidity pools hold positions instead, so there is nothing to burn.
Why it matters before you trade
Burned LP makes an instant liquidity pull impossible, but it does not stop the other exits. Insiders can still sell their tokens into the burned pool, and a live mint authority can still dilute everyone. Treat LP burn as one check passed, not as a verdict that the token is safe.
How NAVI shows it
The rug check on each token page shows the share of the largest pool's liquidity that is unlocked (neither burned nor locked), with a warning at 80% or more. It also gives the share of liquidity across all the token's pools that sits in burned or locked LP. For concentrated-liquidity pools it says the check does not apply rather than reporting them as unlocked.
