Terra Luna Classic LUNC USTC

LUNC News: Terra Luna Classic community has now rejected three USTC burn proposals, as the latest proposal to burn all USTC in the community pool failed to convince the community that it’s a prudent course of action. Terra Luna Classic Community Deters 8 Million USTC Burn Proposal.

The move comes amid a narrative to burn 800 million USTC from Risk Harbor Multisig Wallet, which sits idle as the project lost the keys and has agreed to blacklist the wallet. The community seems to be looking at developments after the community approves the new developer group Genuine Labs to work on the chain.

Terra Luna Classic Community Rejects 8 Mln USTC Burn Proposal

Proposal 11958 “Burn 8 million USTC directly from CP” was officially rejected by the Terra Luna Classic community. The proposal aimed to burn all USTC in the community pool through a spend proposal to burn address.

Currently, the community pool has 8.11 million USTC and 3.61 billion LUNC, as per StakeBin data.

The proposal especially saw denial by validators as a number of top validators voted “No” during the governance proposal. It includes Interstellar Lounge, JesusisLord, Lunanauts, SoliVote, and others. The community believes the funds must be used for development purposes of the Terra Luna Classic chain and provide liquidity support in projects.

CoinGape earlier reported that the motive behind the proposal is to burn all USTC in the community pool as they are not currently required for community initiatives. The community pool has a substantial amount of 3.61 billion LUNC. This is enough to cover the on-chain activities and manage other costs.

“By taking the initiative to burn this amount of USTC, we demonstrate our commitment to self-sufficiency and the responsible management of community resources. This action not only aligns with our community’s vision for deflation but also sends a powerful message that we are proactive in shaping the future of Terra Classic,” said VegasMorph.
