Published by

The total LUNC burned by the Terra Luna Classic community reaches 76 billion, hitting another milestone in the community’s efforts to reduce the circulating supply of LUNC since May 18, 2022. The world’s largest crypto exchange Binance has burned almost 38.94 billion LUNC, contributing over 50% to the total LUNC burned until now.

LUNC token circulating supply is 5.80 trillion and the total supply is 6.83 trillion LUNC. However, the community still needs to increase utility to increase the LUNC burn rate.

Terra Luna Classic Burn Hits 76 Billion Milestone

Terra Luna Classic burn campaign reached the 76 billion LUNC milestone as crypto exchanges, validators, projects, and members burn LUNC by sending it to the burn address. The community burns on average 400 million LUNC per week, with Binance sending billions to the burn address as part of its monthly LUNC burn mechanism.

Binance burned over 1 billion LUNC tokens in the 14th batch of the LUNC burn mechanism on October 1, with the LUNC burned by the crypto exchange to date reaching over 38.81 billion.

The Terra Classic L1 Task Force (L1TF) developer group and the Quant USTC repeg team aim to focus on reducing the LUNC and USTC circulating supply in Q4. The developers aim to repeg USTC to $1, working with exchanges for its successful completion.

Meanwhile, the Terra Luna Classic community now has a community-owned Galaxy Station wallet and Galaxy Finder blockchain explorer.
