When a white dwarf eventually burns out, it will turn into a black dwarf- basically a cinder in space. But the universe is too young for this to have happened yet. Black holes are the result of massive stars collapsing under the pressure of their own gravity once they can no longer resist it through the power of their fusion reactions.
