Terra Classic Edward Kim On Reopening IBC Channel, Proposal 10983, Other Plans

Terra Rebels and Terra Classic core developer Edward Kim in a Twitter Space on Monday shared current progress related to re-opening Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) channels, Proposal 10983 to mint 50% from 0.2% LUNC burn tax, and Terra Classic v23 upgrade, and others.

Terra Rebels’ Edward Kim Discusses Upcoming Plans

Edward Kim, Terra Classic core developer, attended a LUNC AMA Twitter Space hosted by WSB Trader Roco on December 5. Moreover, Edward Kim revealed that IBC channels will be reopened at block height 10,542,500, estimated on December 6 at 9 AM UTC.

Edward Kim’s Proposal 10950 to re-enable three IBC channels for Cosmos-based chains Osmosis, Crescent, and Juno was passed by the community. Thus, the reopening of IBC channels will allow trapped assets to flow through the channels, with most assets trapped on Osmosis.

Currently, Terra Rebels, Osmosis, and Notional Labs have successfully tested the IBC channels and need validators and exchanges to update clients to v1.0.4. Meanwhile, the rewards are paused and developments are ongoing for the next 6 months. It will help bring back utility to the Terra Classic blockchain.

Regarding Proposal 10983 to increase the seignorage of the community pool with 50% of the 0.2% burn tax instead of 10% for on-chain development, Edward Kim believes it could impact Binance burn, saying “I don’t know it’s a complicated situation”. However, the team is unsure about the percentage of Binance burn that will be impacted but it depends on Terra Classic’s activity.

Developers believe dApps, whales, and other projects will burn more LUNC tokens. However, decreasing the burn tax failed to increase LUNC trading volume as expected earlier.

On the other hand, the community believes Proposal 10983 will make Binance CEO “CZ” revoke the LUNC burn mechanism. Binance is burning its trading fees on LUNC spot and margin trading pairs for its contribution to the community. Meanwhile, the proposal has unanimously passed with a majority voting “yes,” but many still remain hopeful about turning down the proposal.

Terra Classic Price Hints Upcoming Rally

Terra Classic price rallied after Binance burned 6.3 billion LUNC tokens. The LUNC price trades at $0.000176. The price has soared nearly 2% in the past 24 hours and over 12% in a week. The community aims for $1, but influencers believe $0.001 is possible.
