LUNC and USTC Price Performance Amid Rise in Burn Rate

LUNC burn rate has significantly increased this month with an average daily burn of 200 million tokens. As per StakeBin data, 1.3 billion LUNC tokens were burned this week. The decline in supply has caused a more than 2% rise in futures open interest on major derivatives exchanges.

LUNC price jumped 1% in the past 24 hours and over 12% in a week, with the Terra Luna Classic price trading at $0.000193. The 24-hour low and high are $0.000184 and $0.000197, respectively. The community thinks a breakout above $0.0005 will bring massive rally.

USTC price continues to trade sideways near $0.03600, with a 24-hour low and high of $0.03403 and $0.03667, respectively. Furthermore, trading volume has decreased by 7% in the past 24 hours.
