Terraform Labs CEO Chris Amani Confirms Huge USTC, LUNC Burn
Terra Classic community seeks ways and prepares to burn billions of USTC and LUNC sitting idle in the wallets linked to Terraform Labs (TFL). The move comes as TFL announced that it would burn tokens in the wallets, sparking bullish speculation for USTC price.
TFL CEO Chris Amani has confirmed that these tokens will also be burned with the planned burn for LUNA. The burn readiness will take place in the next few months.
Terra Classic Plans To Burn Billion of USTC
Terra Luna Classic community plans to burn USTC and LUNC in the Terraform Labs (TFL) and Luna Foundation Guard (LFG) wallets. It would help the community to reduce the circulating supply of both Terra Luna Classic ecosystem tokens during the Terra-Luna death spiral.
As Terraform Labs and Do Kwon settled with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for $4.5 billion, LUNC community focused on burning the tokens. TFL CEO Chris Amani said that “TFL was always intended to dissolve at some point.” The company is winding down operations completely after filing bankruptcy.
Terra Luna Classic members have uncovered some TFL and LFG wallets that the community can burn as the company dissolves assets. However, some are curious about how the community will monitor and ensure USTC and LUNC burn are viable.

LUNC and USTC Prices To Rally After Big Burn
Terra Classic community anticipates a massive rally in LUNC and USTC prices after the big burn. However, the burn isn’t likely to bring any significant price action.
LUNC price continues to move sideways, with the price currently trading at $0.00009102. The 24-hour low and high are $0.00008956 and $0.00009237, respectively. Moreover, trading volume has decreased by 13% in the last 24 hours, indicating a lack of interest among traders in this downturn.
Meanwhile, USTC price saw some signs of recovery as the community plans for the burn. The price is currently changing hands at $0.01864. The trading volume has dropped by 15%.

The move comes after Terraform Labs and Do Kwon agreed to settle with the U.S. SEC for $4.5 billion. Some saw the proposal as an initial merge effort with Terra (LUNA) community by bringing Luna v2 validators to Terra Classic after the TFL and SEC settlement, bolstering the network’s decentralization.
Terra Luna Classic Rejects Proposal
The Terra Luna Classic community is currently reluctant to increase the validator limit to 130 from 100, as they look to welcome back validators from Terra Luna v2 after Terraform Labs and the U.S. SEC settlement. Proposal 12116 “Increase Validator Active Set to 130” failed to reach pass threshold in the governance voting.
The proposal received a mere 30.59% “Yes” votes. Notably, 46.17% “No” and 22.59% “Abstain” votes took down the LUNC proposal after denial by top delegates and validators. Among 46 validators who voted, only 10 such as Allnodes, Luna Station 88, LuncGoblins, Austism Staking, and others voted against the proposal.
Allnodes stated the chain is not currently ready for it, stating “The amount of LUNC required to get into the active set is not burdensome.”
Proposer suggested that expanding the validator set to 13o will strengthen Terra Classic network’s decentralization and benefit the LUNC community.

Terra Classic (LUNC) has experienced a substantial burn of over 6 billion LUNC tokens, following major sell-offs by large investors. This activity arose after Terraform Labs CEO Chris Amani confirmed the impending burn of LUNC and USTC from TFL and LFG wallets.
In the past 48 hours, the LUNC burn count has exceeded 6.5 billion, driven by large wallets selling LUNC and significant movements on centralized exchanges. Following a massive 5 billion token burn shared on X by Mr. Diamondhandz1, more burns followed, raising the total to over 6.5 billion.
This has driven the 7-day burn metric shown on Luncmetrics to an astonishing 6.93 billion tokens, resulting in a notable decrease in supply, while the community pool has seen an increase.
LUNC trading volumes have surged by more than 600% within 24 hours, reflecting heightened trading activity. This spike follows CEO Chris Amani’s assurance to the Terra Classic community that LUNC and USTC in TFL and LFG wallets would be burned. Amani also committed to blacklisting and burning wallets holding LUNC and USTC if the firm cannot access them.
The latest burn has brought the total LUNC burned to over 123.5 billion, with Binance leading the effort, having burned 60.42 billion LUNC (48.9% of total burns) through its monthly burn mechanism.

LUNC and USTC Prices Decline
The Terra Luna Classic ecosystem tokens have seen significant price declines as whales and other investors offloaded LUNC. LUNC is trading at $0.00007525, down 2.98% over the past week. LUNC has failed to meet investor expectations, dropping 28.12% over the past week and 31.87 over the past month.
USTC has not fared significantly better, showing a 3.04% decrease over the past 24 hours and trading at $0.0171. LUNC has also dropped 18.67% over the past weeks and 24.37% over the past month.
This poor performance has caused negative reactions from community members. A prominent crypto proponent recently called LUNC a meme coin because of its abysmal performance.
However, he received backlash from some in the community, as many are confident that LUNC’s poor performance is just short-term volatility. Another prominent figure also weighed in on the closure of Terraform Labs, pointing out how this potentially negative outcome can benefit LUNC. Despite the bearish trend, LUNC still has a recovery potential, and many analysts believe it is coming soon.

The Terra Luna Classic community has rejected a highly debated proposal to increase the validator set to 130 on the blockchain. This decision comes in the wake of Terraform Labs and Do Kwon’s agreement to settle with the U.S. SEC for $4.5 billion.
According to updates shared in Today’s Coin Market Cap news, the proposal aimed to merge efforts with the Terra (LUNA) community by incorporating Luna v2 validators into Terra Classic, thereby enhancing the network’s decentralization. The community’s reaction can be summarized as follows:
Proposal Rejection: The community voted against Proposal 12116, which sought to increase the validator limit from 100 to 130. The proposal received only 30.59% “Yes” votes, while 46.17% voted “No,” and 22.59% abstained. This outcome reflects the community’s reluctance to expand the validator set at this time.
Voting Breakdown: Out of 46 validators who participated in the vote, only 10 supported the proposal. Notable validators such as Allnodes, Luna Station 88, LuncGoblins, and Autism Staking voted against it, citing concerns about the current readiness of the chain for such an expansion. Allnodes stated, “The amount of LUNC required to get into the active set is not burdensome.”
Proposer’s Perspective: The proposer argued that increasing the validator set would strengthen the network’s decentralization and benefit the LUNC community. However, the opposition believed that the amount of LUNC required to join the active set is not yet a burden, suggesting the network is not prepared for this change.

BtcTurk, the largest Turkish cryptocurrency exchange, was hit by a massive cyber attack over the weekend. The exchange claimed that one out of every ten crypto balances in its hot wallets were affected and that LUNC would be delisted. Famed on-chain detective ZachXBT chimed in to estimate a total damage of $54.20 million.
Further Research Hints at $90M Missing
ZachXBT counted 1.96 million Avalanche (AVAX) tokens in a suspicious crypto address. The address was used to siphon digital assets from BtcTurk and later swapped into assets on Coinbase and THORChain.
Upon closer examination by blockchain security audit company CertiK, it was determined that over $90 million of crypto funds were drained from the platform.
The major security breach triggered a massive sell-off of certain cryptocurrencies that the fraudsters managed to get their hands on. Besides the 1.96M AVAX coins spotted by ZachXBT, 350,000,000,000 Terra Luna Classic (LUNC) tokens were drained from BtcTurk’s treasury.
These LUNC coins, equaling $28.55 million, were moved between crypto wallets in an attempt to conceal the origin of the funds. Upon further investigation by DailyCoin, the fraudsters first cashed out 325B LUNC tokens from one of BtcTurk’s hot wallets. These digital assets were conveyed to multiple decoy wallets on Terra Classic’s chain before finally being deposited to Binance.

Terra Luna Classic Dumps 20% After Hack
Prominent Terra Luna Classic community members are tying the $90 million BtcTurk hack to LUNC’s plunge last weekend, but the community is divided on how it will affect performance. LUNC plummeted to a three-month low of $0.00007362 on June 22.
LUNC’s association with the hack also contributed to its shrinking market cap, which dipped by nearly $100 million due to the incident.
However, Terra Luna Classic’s funding and burning mechanism offered a silver lining in this story. According to the newly implemented LUNC burn tax rules, every transaction contributes to the Community Pool (CP), a long-term fund aimed at pursuing LUNC’s restoration plans.
The devastating BtcTurk hacking incident poured 800,000,000 LUNC tokens into the CP, which can be allocated to new development projects. The hackers’ overcomplicated transactions to erase traces of malicious activity have contributed to LUNC’s daily burns, adding a hefty 6.5B LUNC to the community’s bonfire.
As of press time, Terra Luna Classic is trading at $0.00008052, up 7.6% over the past 24 hours. Despite the soft rebound rally, LUNC has been 23% down in the last two weeks. The community is left on edge about the coin’s future, as portrayed in a question in LUNC Ninja’s thread: “Has the sell-off by this entity ended?”

A Token Reborn: LUNC Capitalizes On Market Volatility
LUNC, once the backbone of the collapsed TerraUSD (USTC) stablecoin ecosystem, has defied expectations. While USTC lost its peg to the US dollar and spiraled into oblivion, LUNC has exhibited surprising resilience.
The past 24 hours saw an 82% price jump, showcasing continued investor interest in the controversial token. This resilience coincides with a broader market trend where investors, wary of traditional assets, are seeking refuge in digital currencies perceived as having strong recovery potential.

Analyst Divided: Measured Optimism Vs. Moon Shot
Coincodex paints a picture of cautious optimism. Their prediction of a 10.7% rise suggests LUNC may experience a slow and steady climb. This aligns with the “Fear & Greed Index” which currently sits at a moderate “Fear” level, indicating a cautious market.
However, analyst Javon Marks throws a wrench into the mix with a far more audacious prediction. Marks posits a potential 1,500% price surge, targeting a price of $0.00139122. This bullish outlook hinges on the idea that LUNC is nearing a breakout phase, fueled by a combination of its recent price gains and historical data.
A Balancing Act Of Hype And Reality
While Marks’ prediction is certainly enticing, historical trends in the cryptocurrency market are littered with failed “moon shot” predictions. The extreme volatility inherent in the crypto space makes long-term price forecasting notoriously unreliable.
Additionally, technical indicators currently lean bearish, suggesting potential short-term price dips. Investors should also consider the ongoing legal battles surrounding the Terra ecosystem, which could cast a shadow on LUNC’s future.
Terra Classic Rejects Validator Expansion Proposal
Meanwhile, the Terra Luna Classic community has rejected Proposal 12116, which sought to increase the blockchain’s validator set from 100 to 130. This proposal emerged in the wake of a $4.5 billion settlement between Terraform Labs, founder Do Kwon, and the US Securities and Exchange Commission. The aim was to enhance the network’s decentralization by incorporating validators from Terra Luna v2, potentially signaling a move towards unification within the Terra ecosystem.
However, the proposal did not gain sufficient support in the community’s governance voting. Concerns about integrating Luna v2 validators, the potential impacts on network security and performance, and the desire to maintain a distinct identity for Terra Luna Classic were significant factors in the decision.

The aim was to enhance the network’s decentralization by incorporating validators from Terra Luna v2, potentially signaling a move towards unification within the Terra ecosystem.
However, the proposal did not gain sufficient support in the community’s governance voting. Concerns about integrating Luna v2 validators, the potential impacts on network security and performance, and the desire to maintain a distinct identity for Terra Luna Classic were significant factors in the decision.
