Yup, DEC has both dynamic inflation and burning, but as you can see they are both ineffective mechanisms during exploding growth. When demand really soars inflation can go high without any consequences, except good ones, because it allows smoother and quicker growth. In Splinterlands case, I believe the higher inflation 'doesn't work' because there were no packs to buy and the cards on the secondary market are limited compared to the growth level.

The same is true if there isn't enough liquidity and a slow mechanism to release more liquidity (Hive), while expecting serious growth. That's why I don't believe in the burns of Hive.

Not a good combination is if a token has a high liquidity, high inflation and slow or inexistent growth. Then burning is a way to prevent the token depreciation, until ways to stimulate growth are found.
