USTC Repeg Proposal Gets Support of the Terra Community

Proposal 11324 “Ziggy: Re-Peg UST (Signal)” by core developer Duncan has hit the “pass threshold” with 76.40% votes from the Terra Classic community.

The proposal aims to upgrade to the TerraClassicUSD (USTC) coin algorithm using a code addition, Exchange Rate Modifier (ERM) to repeg USTC. It includes the development of the ERM; obtaining consensus from developers, CEXs, and other blockchain markets; and testing, modifying, and iterating on the process.

Among the validators, 37 approved the proposal, while 5 voted “No” and 12 voted “Abstain”. Several top validators such as Allnodes, Orion, StakeBin, BTC.Secure, and Classy’s Sphere favored the proposal.

Meanwhile, Terra Classic core developer Edward Kim’s Proposal 11310 to upgrade blockchain to v1.0.5 was passed recently by the community. The Joint L1 Task Force has released the Terra Classic v1.0.5 update and nodes can upgrade it before reaching block height 11,543,150, estimated on Feb 14.
