LUNC rallies amid sustained network development
Following the Terra ecosystem collapse, the community is focusing on attempting to revive LUNC’s status with a series of lined-up development activities. In particular, the network has witnessed accelerated burning of LUNC tokens in a bid to give the asset more utility.
The latest rally has coincided with a period where the community is voting on a new proposal that would reverse a decision to transfer 50% of all LUNC burns to a community development pool.
Notably, Terra Classic continues to rally in the wake of increased support for the token by established entities. For instance, crypto exchange Binance has been voluntarily burning LUNC spot and margin trading fees.
At the same time, the rally is a welcomed development within the LUNC community, considering the token began tanking after news emerged that Terraform Labs founder Do Kwon was hiding in Serbia. LUNC had also reacted negatively after core developers Edward Kim and Tobias Anderson announced they were leaving the Terra Rebels volunteer developer group.
