Binance Incinerates 1.7 Billion LUNC

The Terra Luna Classic community saw 1.7 billion Terra Luna Classic (LUNC) tokens burned by crypto exchange Binance, as per the burn transaction on July 1. The burn transaction also recorded 8.5 million LUNC in tax. Tax2Gas implementation expected this month will likely boost the burn narrative.

The 23rd batch of the LUNC burn mechanism Binance burned a significant amount of trading fees for the period between May 31 to June 29. Binance has now burned nearly 61.99 billion Terra Luna Classic (LUNC) tokens from trading fees on LUNC spot and margin trading pairs.
