Binance to Burn Billions of Terra Luna Classic (LUNC) Tokens

Crypto exchange Binance has burned over 57 billion Terra Luna Classic (LUNC), accounting 51.9% of the total LUNC burned by the community. In the 20th LUNC burn mechanism, burned 4.17 billion Terra Luna Classic (LUNC) tokens. The exchange burned 4.17 billion in trading fees on LUNC spot and margin trading pairs worth $722,630 as trading volumes increased significantly in March.

However, daily LUNC trading volume has dropped this month amid the market-wide drop in crypto prices and trading volumes. In March, LUNC saw massive trading volumes of over $100 million daily, with prices rallying past the $0.0002 level. In April, the average daily trading volumes were $30 million and prices have dropped to $0.0001. The market cap has also dropped from over $1 billion to under $600 million in a month.

The trading volumes are even lower than February, indicating a massive drop in LUNC burn. The 21st batch of Binance LUNC burn will be for the period between March 31 to April 29, with no major increase in trading volumes until now. Thus, Binance is likely to burn between 1 billion to 1.5 billion LUNC tokens on May 1.
