Terra Luna Classic (LUNC) Core Team Proposal Fails, Here's Why

Highlights

  • Terra Luna Classic community turns down proposal to increase burn tax to 1.5%
  • Community members and validators veto the proposal, turning down the proposal once and for all.
  • LUNC price jumps, but selling pressure rising on LUNC.

The Terra Luna Classic community discarded a proposal to raise the burn tax to 1.5%. The community members expressed their dismay at the recurrent proposals suggesting altering the burn tax, especially an increase in the amount.

The moves come a few days ahead of Binance’s LUNC burn mechanism. Binance and former CEO Changpeng Zhao opposed high burn tax and proposals seeking to undermine the Terra Classic revival efforts.

Terra Luna Classic Rejects LUNC Burn Proposal

Proposal 12105 “Increase burn tax” is rejected by the Terra Luna Classic community, with most holders criticizing the proposal for lack of reasoning and “lazy effort”. This is a text proposal and not a parameter change, so even if it passed it would not change the tax. A new proposal is required with a compelling description and discussion time on Commonwealth.

The proposal received a mere 21.35% “Yes” votes. Terra Luna Classic community voted 32% “No” and 38% “No with veto” votes, turning down the narrative for revising the burn tax. Validators also voted against the proposal as there is no data to support the tax increase, no complimentary strategies to support the tax increase, and no volume projections.

Recently, the community changed the LUNC burn tax distribution to oracle pool instead of rewards. The proposal has received 70% votes in favor with 37 validators in support of the proposal. Terra Classic 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.
