LUNC Targets $1 With Terra Classic Community Token Burn Proposal

A Terra Classic (LUNC) community member has proposed burning the entire tokens in the community’s Oracle Pool. The proposal submitted about seven days ago launched with an initial deposit of 255,415 Terra Classic (LUNC). So far, 299,500 LUNC has been raised, a volume still far from the minimum of one million LUNC required to initiate the voting process.

The proposal, termed “Proposal 11398,” has the message “burn community pool. caused nothing but stress to burn the sh*t.” The community pool, in this case, refers to Terra Classic’s source of funds for project execution and efforts toward network development. That particular pool is funded with 10% of the overall 0.2% burn tax, and the release of funds depends on governance votes.

On March 2, 2023, Binance burned 8.9 billion LUNC in the latest quarterly burn exercise. That amount represented 50% of the total spot and margin trading fees for the token in the previous three months. Other LUNC token burn exercises have followed, bringing the total number of LUNC burned to 50.11 billion.

The Terra Classic community pool proposed for burning has 235 billion LUNC, representing 3.4% of the total supply. Though a relatively small portion, users believe that getting such a volume out of existence could significantly impact the price of LUNC, perhaps pushing it to $1.

One of the notable validators on the Terra Classic network, LUNC DAO, has registered support for the recent proposal. In a tweet, the validator shared a screenshot of the exercise with the caption, “Burn it all, $LUNC to $1.”

However, the authenticity of LUNC DAO’s support is yet to be guaranteed, as some community members suggest that the tweet could have an undertone of sarcasm. In reality, achieving Proposal 11398 would be a tall order, considering the consequences that could come with the difficulty of bankrolling network developments in the future.

Solana traders prepare for FTX-induced sell pressure on SOL — Is it premature?

Image
Crypto traders are talking about SOL price falling due to the risk of FTX selling its $1.16 billion Solana stake. Are they over-exaggerating? For a long time, Solana (SOL) has been associated with the founder of now insolvent crypto exchange FTX and hedge fund Alameda Research, Sam Bankman Fried. He was an early investor in the project and invested in numerous Solana ecosystem projects during the 2020-2021 bull mania. So when FTX collapsed toward the end of 2022, Solana and other “Sam coins” plummeted significantly, falling to lows of $9.89 — down 96.3% from the peak of $259.96. Since the start of 2023, Solana’s price staged a recovery to gain 175% to reach a peak of $27.37 as the ecosystem also witnessed growth. However, more recently, SOL came under tremendous selling pressure after the Delaware Bankruptcy Court approved the sale of FTX’s digital assets, which includes 55.75 million SOL worth $1.062 million. However, the unlock schedule of FTX’s holdings and derivative market posit

Tamadoge currently has five games in beta testing in its Games Arcade, which makes it somewhat different to the run of the milll memes coins lacking in utility. Play-to-earn giant Axie Infinity is up 33% in past 7 days – helps lift TAMA? Interest in the coin is perhaps being rekindled by the performance of the standout play-to-earn coin Axie Infinity, helping to refocus investor and trader attention on coins in the P2E games sector.  AXS is up 33% in the past seven days although is down 7% today at $11.90. Axie is the original P2E success story, but following the $650 million Ronin bridge hack the price collapsed and many users fled the game.  There are signs of that changing with a revamped game that has addressed some of the flaws in the original, which seemed to emphasise attracting speculative hot money.  The orig
