How did this transaction burn BTC?
The All-Zero Public Key
If an address is derived by using an all-zero (i.e. 0x00 repeated 65 times) under the Pay-to-Public-Key-Hash (P2PKH) scheme, the resulting address is 13VmALKHkCdSN1JULkP6RqW3LcbpWvgryV. While the address appears valid and can receive funds, it is impossible to spend these funds as no corresponding private key is known.
Although this P2PKH version has never received funds on the Bitcoin Mainnet, the corresponding Pay-to-Public-Key (P2PK) version has.

The Bitcoin Protocol relies on the secp256k1 elliptic curve for its cryptographic operations. This curve belongs to the larger family of elliptic curves.
Bitcoin also employs a number of hashing operations such as SHA-256 and RIPEMD-160. These operations are used in various places across the protocol, including in the creation of addresses and their corresponding Bitcoin Scripts.
In some cases, it is possible to select values that are invalid for the secp256k1 curve as inputs to the hashing operations. This can lead to unexpected results, such as the creation of addresses that can be used to receive BTC, but are never able to spend it.
