Mint Account Remains Open Post-NFT Burn Even When Owned by Metaplex Program #57

Closed dr497 closed 9 months ago

dr497 commented 9 months ago

During the process of burning an NFT, all associated accounts (token account, metadata, edition, etc.) are correctly closed. However, the mint account remains open, even in instances where the mint account is owned by the Metaplex program.

Mint accounts on the original spl-token program cannot be closed--this is a restriction in the token program not the Metaplex one.

Thanks for the clarification, I did not realize this.
