Pressing Submit Button on Post Form Only Reloads the Page

I need to post values from an HTML form but every time I press the submit button the page reloads, and that's it. I've checked the routes and controller, and everything seems fine to me.

Blade

<div class="panel-body">
    @if (session('status'))
        <div class="alert alert-success">
            {{ session('status') }}
        </div>
    @endif
    @foreach($users as $users)
        @if(session("admin")==0)
            Meno: {{$users["name"]}} Email: {{$users["email"]}}
            Registrovaný: {{$users["created_at"]}}
        @endif
        @if(session("admin")==1 AND $users["admin"]==0)
            <form action="/promote" method="POST">
                Meno: {{$users["name"]}} Email: {{$users["email"]}}
                Registrovaný: {{$users["created_at"]}}
                <input type="hidden" name="id" value="{{$users["id"]}}">
                <button type="submit" class="w3-button w3-green">Promote</button>
            </form>@endif
        @if(session("admin")==1 AND $users["admin"]==1)
            <form action="/demote" method="POST">
                Meno: {{$users["name"]}} Email: {{$users["email"]}}
                Registrovaný: {{$users["created_at"]}}
                <input type="hidden" name="id" value="{{$users["id"]}}">
                <button type="submit" class="w3-button w3-red">Demote</button>
            </form>@endif
        <br>
    @endforeach
</div>

Routes

Route::post('/promote', 'users_controller@promote')->middleware('auth');
Route::post('/demote', 'users_controller@demote')->middleware('auth');

Controller

public function promote(Request $req)
{
    $id = $req->input('id');
    DB::table('users')->where("id", $id)->update(["admin" => 1]);

    return redirect()->back();
}

public function demote(Request $req)
{
    $id = $req->input('id');
    DB::table('users')->where("id", $id)->update(["admin" => 0]);

    return redirect()->back();
}

I want to change the database value on column "admin" on a row with the id posted in a hidden input. Now it doesn't do anything but reload the page.

You are missing the CSRF token, to solve this you should put @csrf inside your form tag, like:

<form action="/demote" method="POST">
      @csrf
      Meno: {{$users["name"]}} Email: {{$users["email"]}}
      Registrovaný: {{$users["created_at"]}}
      <input type="hidden" name="id" value="{{$users["id"]}}">
      <button type="submit" class="w3-button w3-red">Demote</button>
</form>

For more info check the docs

To submit the form you would most likely need to use <input type="submit" value="Submit"> instead off <button type="submit" class="w3-button w3-red">Demote</button>.

This has caused issues for me before using plain HTML and PHP, give it a try.
