In cryptocurrency news, Terra Classic recently performed a significant token burn operation, influencing both its LUNC and ASTRO tokens. However, Terra had previously witnessed a catastrophic collapse led by its founder, Do Kwon, impacting stablecoin markets and leading to a sizable downfall in its market capitalization. Kwon was subsequently extradited to the US to face civil fraud charges over this debacle, causing further disruption to Terra's operation.
Legal implications also led to the announcement of Terraform Labs winding down and selling four companies as part of the process. This move opened the way for Terra's community to take control of the blockchain. Importantly, Binance amplified the burning process for Terra Luna Classic (LUNC), although this didn't significantly impact its price rise. The potential for LUNC to reach $1 per coin was discussed, with enhancements to LUNC burns through Tax2Gas.
Furthermore, Terraform Labs agreed to pay almost $4.5B to settle with the SEC, a decision that was backed by a US judge. However, Kwon remained defiant and pleaded not guilty. In light of these events, there was an increased surge in LUNC staking. Terra Luna Classic aimed at improving its performance and reducing chain violation through governance module upgrades.
The story continued with the arrest of Terra's founder, Do Kwon, in Montenegro following the collapse of Terra and Luna. This led to a massive fall in the value of Terra ($LUNA) coin. Notably, Terra Classic deployed its chain upgrade in a bid to catalyze its growth. Unfortunately, despite the increased burns of LUNC tokens by Binance, the coin continued to dip.
