Terra Luna Classic (LUNC) Burn Hits 95 Billion Milestone

Terra Luna Classic burn campaign has now hit the 95 billion LUNC milestone in a coordinated effort by crypto exchanges, validators, projects, and community members. The community on average burns 600 million LUNC per week, which has increased substantially since November.

Binance has contributed over 51% to the total LUNC burn by sending billions to the burn address as part of its monthly LUNC burn mechanism. Binance burned 5.57 billion Terra Luna Classic (LUNC) tokens in the 17th batch of the LUNC burn mechanism. The total LUNC burned by the crypto exchange to date reaches almost 50 billion.

LUNC token circulating supply is 5.78 trillion and the total supply is 6.81 trillion LUNC. However, the community still needs to work on utility, funding, and chain developments to support the increase in LUNC burn rate.

Currently, the community tried to burn USTC and LUNC sitting idle in other protocols, but it needs a clear directive to proceed with burns.
