Highlights

  • Terra Luna Classic developer Genuine Labs submits proposal for discussion to go ahead with Tax2Gas.
  • Tax2gas removes the need for separate handling and calculation, revising burn tax.
  • LUNC price jumped 2% in the last 24 hours.

Terra Luna Classic developer group Genuine Labs proposes to go ahead with the Tax2Gas implementation, removing the need for separate handling and calculation of tax. The move comes in response to the Tax2Gas approach for Terra Classic chain suggested earlier by popular developer StrathCole and Genuine Labs.

Tax2Gas will incorporate the tax into the gas and remove the need for separate handling and calculation. The proposal aimed to increase the on-chain tax rate to 1.5%, which brings back to the original 1.2% burn tax, with 0.3% to fund the chain by the current on-chain 80/20% tax split.

Terra Luna Classic Community Move Ending Current Burn Tax

Terra Luna Classic community employed burn tax to transactions in 2022. However, there have been several issues noticed with the burn tax.

  • Contract developers need to calculate the tax manually and adjust the amount for it.
  • Clients, or dApps, have to calculate the tax themselves, as the simulation endpoint only provides gas estimates.
  • Migrating audited dApps becomes cumbersome due to these Classic-specific adjustments, leading to potential re-audits.

Genuine Labs added that Tax2gas can tackle the current problems related to burn tax, presenting a simple and efficient approach. It will also prevent attacks on Terra Luna Classic using e2e-test.

Developers require 5 weeks for research, development, and basic testing and deployment. The estimated total budget is $25,000 in LUNC. The developers will submit spend proposals during the first weeks of the implementation phase and after successfully completing outlined tests.

Terra Classic currently has a burn tax set to 0.5%. Out of this, 80% is for burn and 20% is distributed as 10% to Community Pool and 10% to Oracle pool.
