Supply and demand. Less coins in circulation, more rare they are to acquire. Let's say you and I have 50 each of a 100 total supply and each coin is worth $1. Let's say a bunch of people want to buy, like let's say 100 people. If I burn my 50, that leaves 50 coins and those 100 people gotta outbid each other for the remaining 50 cuz there's less coins available now. So your coins could end up being worth more.

Don't know if you into gaming but look at the ps5 and xbox consoles. Since there wasn't much being released, scalpers are able to raise the price on their consoles. Supply goes up, demand goes down, and vice versa.

This is the first time I’m hearing about this as well
Your wallet has a private key, password, etc., in order for you to access it and transfer coins in and out of. The burn wallet that was created, the private keys are destroyed so transfers can't be made out of. So those coins are lost forever and not able to be purchased since they can't be removed from that wallet.

Not exactly cuz it happens naturally at times and not just with crypto. There's a bunch of btc that got lost early on cuz of missing wallet info. Last year one guy was trying to access his wallet cuz he was about to lose millions of dollars due to forgetting his password. With the way coins are easily able to move thru the network, it'll just look like you're giving someone else money.
