Terra Luna Classic Staking Surges To 15% With Over 1T LUNC Staked

The Terra Classic Foundation revealed on X that the staking ratio for Terra Classic (LUNC) has now surpassed 15%, with over 1 trillion tokens staked. This milestone coincides with substantial LUNC token burns by Binance, further boosting optimism about the crypto’s performance.

Terra Luna Classic Staking Ratio Surges

According to the latest data from Terra Classic Foundation, over 1.017 trillion LUNC has been staked on the network. At the current price, this Terra Luna Classic staked reserve is valued at $70.15 million. Moreover, the staking ratio has now surged to a high of 15.01% from 14.83% a few days ago.

Earlier, on July 1, Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, burned 1.7 billion LUNC tokens. This marked the 23rd batch of the LUNC burn mechanism. Moreover, Binance has now burned nearly 62 billion LUNC tokens to date. The total LUNC tokens burned by the Terra Luna Classic community have exceeded 125 billion.

In addition, Binance’s continuous support for the Terra Luna Classic revival since 2022 is noteworthy. The exchange’s monthly LUNC burn mechanism significantly contributes to reducing the overall supply. The 23rd burn batch covered the period from May 31 to June 29. It burned a substantial amount of trading fees. Furthermore, Binance alone accounts for over 50% of the total LUNC burned by the community.

Also, the increase in the staking ratio can positively influence the Terra Luna Classic price. Higher staking ratios often indicate strong community confidence and reduced available supply for trading. This can lead to decreased selling pressure and potential price appreciation.

Staking locks up tokens, reducing the circulating supply. With fewer tokens available for trading, demand can push the LUNC price higher. Additionally, increased staking signals long-term commitment from holders, which can attract more investors.

What’s Next For LUNC Price?

The crypto market faced supply pressure this week due to the Bitcoin price correction. This was influenced by liquidations from the Mt. Gox exchange and the German government. Moreover, the Bitcoin price plummeted to a four-month low of $53,550. In addition, the bearish momentum spread through the altcoin market, which also impacted Terra Luna Classic.

Thereafter, the LUNC price dropped below its seven-month support level. The Terra Luna Classic correction began in early March when the price fell from $0.00025. By July 5, the price had dropped 73.6% to $0.0000673. However, on Saturday, July 7, LUNC price saw a rebound with over 7% gains, trading at $0.00006898.

This rebound suggests that a further dip to $0.000052 might be avoided. For restricting the downturn, the LUNC price needs to breaks out from $0.00007 and sustains that level. Whilst, the current market cap for LUNC stands at $376.43 billion. Moreover, the reduced token supply owing to token burns by Binance and community staking can also aid in boosting the Terra Luna Classic price.
