Terra Luna Classic Community Turns Down Major Burn Proposal

Terra Luna Classic community has turned down another proposal targeting 800 million USTC burn, with a lack of consensus between community members, including validators. However, top validators haven’t voted yet on the proposal or voted “Abstain” to let other validators decide as there are not enough details regarding the resultant impact.

Terra Luna Classic Proposal For 800 Million USTC Burn

Proposal 11927 “Burn of 800m USTC Funds” is near rejection by the Terra Luna Classic community. The proposal aims to burn the 800 million USTC still in the Risk Harbor multisig wallet via a contract, a legally ‘legally absolved route’.

As the Terra Luna Classic community was notified that Risk Harbor lost the keys and has agreed to blacklist the wallet, 800 million burn is crucial for the community. Thus, the community plans to burn instead as no fund recovery via the wallet owners is possible and blacklisting serves no purpose anymore.

The core developer L1TF needs to create a contract with a sole MsgSend to transfer all holdings to burn address. The multisig contract is then migrated via governance to that code id. It eliminates the need for validators to install any code, minimizing legal implications.

The proposal has received only 18% “Yes” votes until now, with 10% “No” and 10% “No with veto” votes. Most members and validators voted “Abstain” —62%. Notably, top validators such as Orion, Interstake One, and Stakely haven’t participated in governance voting.

Among 54 Terra Luna Classic validators who participated, 24 voted “Yes” and 22 voted “Abstain”, with 8 validators against the proposal.
