More than 2 billion LUNA tokens were transferred to South Korean exchanges after Binance decided to delist the coin due to high volatility. According to South Korea’s local news Money Today, the number of LUNA on the Upbit exchange now stands at nearly 1.5 billion. Meanwhile, the other three exchanges Bithumb, Coinone, and Korbit holds nearly 2.5 billion LUNA tokens.

An official from the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) said:

“The current Luna-Tera incident is about checking the status of measures taken by the exchange to prevent further damage to investors. It is a situation in which we cannot directly intervene or take action.”

Terra and Luna Foundation Guard have been working to increase the LUNA supply to prevent the crash of UST stablecoin. The world’s largest crypto exchange Binance continues crackdown against LUNA and UST as it delists trading pairs and liquidity pools.

Meanwhile, other exchanges including OKX also delisted LUNA and UST trading pairs. The OKX exchange has announced to terminate UST trading market today.
