Terra Luna Classic ecosystem tokens LUNC and USTC prices saw a massive surge after the Montenegro Supreme Court released Terra co-founder Do Kwon. While Terraform Labs (TFL) and Do Kwon had separated ties with the Terra Classic chain, the tokens still recorded significant gains along with over 26% gain in Terra (LUNA).
LUNC and USTC are witnessing a stunning rally in the last 24 hours. The upside momentum is backed by a continuous rise in trading volumes for both Terra Luna Classic ecosystem tokens.
