Could you please elaborate on what theta burn actually is? I've heard this term being mentioned in relation to cryptocurrency and finance, but I'm not quite sure what it means. Is it a type of transaction fee? Or is it a strategy used by investors? Could you provide some context and explain its significance in the cryptocurrency world? What is theta burn?
