Terra Luna Classic Seeks 200 Million USTC

Terra Luna Classic developer RedlineDrifter reignited buzz in the community regarding the missing 200 million USTC. He alleges that Coinbase and Pantera Capital-backed Karak Network has not returned USTC worth $8 million that belongs to the community.

RedlineDrifter pointed out Karak Network co-founder Raouf Ben-Har for missing crypto assets that date back to when he operated under Risk Harbor. The Risk Harbor team is now rebranded to Andalusia Labs. The Terra Luna Classic community claims Risk Harbor team used an admin function to withdraw 200 million UST (now USTC).

The community member joined BNB Chain X space featuring Karak Network, Lista DAO, and Listapie to ask about the missing 200 million USTC. Notably, Terra Luna Classic community has burned 800 million USTC and taken out of circulating supply.

“No user funds were ever touched. Foundation sold UST that the Terra Foundation minted and provided (which eventually dissolved) for pennies on the dollar after riding it down to 0, which will carry forward to Karak. Simple as that.” said Victor Cheng, CSO at Karak Network.
