Terra Luna Classic Community Burns Over 85 Billion LUNC: What Next For LUNC Price?

Elena R11 Dec 20232 min read

In a significant development for the Terra Luna Classic (LUNC) ecosystem, the community has successfully burned a staggering 85 billion LUNC since May 18, 2022. This achievement underscores the community’s ongoing efforts to reduce the amount of LUNC in circulation, to stabilize and enhance its value.

Major Contribution by Binance

Leading the charge in this initiative is the renowned cryptocurrency exchange, Binance, which has played a pivotal role by burning approximately 43.6 billion LUNC. This figure represents more than half of the total LUNC burned to date. Binance’s consistent participation has been a cornerstone of the burning campaign, demonstrating the exchange’s commitment to the Terra Luna Classic community.

Following the split from Terraform Labs led by Do Kwon, Terra Luna Classic has transitioned into a community-led project. Governance and development decisions are now in the hands of members and developers approved by the community, marking a new era of decentralized control and engagement.

Efforts to Reduce Circulating Supply

With a total supply of 6.82 trillion LUNCs and 5.83 trillion currently in circulation, the community is actively seeking ways to reduce the circulating supply. The strategy involves improving utility to enhance the burn rate efficiently. The community burns an average of 200 million LUNC weekly, while Binance contributes billions monthly to the burn address.

December 1 witnessed Binance conducting its 16th batch of LUNC burn, eliminating about 4 billion LUNC coins from circulation. This event coincided with the launch of USTC perpetual contracts and the listing of new USTC and LUNC pairings. These developments led to a surge in LUNC spot and margin trading volumes.

Market Volatility and LUNC Price

Despite the overall cryptocurrency market showing signs of recovery, LUNC continues to experience volatility. The price of LUNC has recently dropped by over 2%, trading at $0.00019, with a 20% decrease in trading volume over the past day. The 24-hour low at the time of reporting stands at 0.0002.

This ongoing campaign and the developments within the Terra Luna Classic ecosystem highlight the community’s resilience and commitment to restoring stability and trust in the LUNC token.
