The community-led Terra Luna Classic chain witnessed multiple revival efforts from introducing burning to inter-blockchain communication (IBC). LUNC price has now skyrocketed 85% this month, with a 65% rally coming this week in response to Mint Cash announcement and USTC perpetual contract launch by Binance.

Trader QT, a partner of Luna Classic Labs, stated this is an initial investment.
It resulted in a 100% jump in USTC price, with the community noting a breakout above resistance. USTC witnessed a further pump as investors also poured money into USTC. It triggered an upside move in the Terra Classic (LUNC), with traders noting a massive increase in liquidity and trading volumes.
Binance Futures launching the USD-M USTC Perpetual Contract with up to 50x leverage sparked further rally. USTC price climbed nearly 400% in two days. The announcement further raised community sentiment, while also speculating whether it was already known to some investors as the Terra ecosystem tokens witnessed sudden rallies.
