Notably, the 18th batch of the LUNC burn mechanism was for the period December 31 to January 30. After the latest burn, Binance LUNC burn has reached 51.27 billion Terra Classic tokens from trading fees on LUNC spot and margin trading pairs.
In January, Binance burned 5.57 billion Terra Luna Classic (LUNC) tokens. The burn rate significantly increased after a massive jump in LUNC trading volume on the crypto exchange. Binance and other crypto exchanges launched a USTC perpetual contract, and new USTC and LUNC trading pairs, which contributed massively to the trading of the tokens.
