LUNC Burn Shortfall Worries The Terra Luna Classic (LUNC) Community

Terra Luna Classic community has failed to burn significant LUNC tokens this week as part of the commitment to remove tokens from the total circulating supply. The Terra LUNA Classic community burned just 5 million LUNC tokens this week, losing the focus to burn in the absence of crypto exchange Binance’s monthly LUNC burn mechanism.

Cremation Coin project burned 3.39 million LUNC, making the total burn rise to over 34 million LUNC. Moreover, validator LUNC DAO burned 1.77 million LUNC this week. There was no other significant burn by the Terra LUNA Classic community.

The community burned over 15 million LUNC tokens last week, as compared to 12 million LUNC in early January. The milestone set by the community indicated a move in the right direction as per the goal to burn billions of LUNC in 2023. In fact, the community believes LUNC price can hit $1 in 2023 through regular burns and bringing back utility.

Moreover, blockchain upgrade v1.0.5 successfully went live at block height 11,543,150 on February 15 at 18:28:24. While the developers were busy with the blockchain upgrade, the community failed to meet burn targets.

The Terra Classic community in total burned over 226 million LUNC tokens in January, as per the data tracked by CoinGape.
