With a 14% increase in LUNC, the volume of LUNA rises by 295% – what’s going on?
LUNA and LUNC increase market confidence with rising volume and bullish sentiment due to the increase in USTC's proposed price.
A 295% increase in LUNA’s volume following the USTC burn proposal indicates a potential bullish surge in the market.
- LUNC has witnessed a 14% price increase amid a 275% spike in volume, driven by community-led USTC efforts.
The Terra Luna Classic [LUNC] community has recently introduced a new USTC burn proposal.
This proposal aims to burn 46.55 million USTC through contract migration, specifically targeting wallets associated with the Mirror protocol.
While past burn efforts had minimal impact on pricing, the current proposal’s goal is to reignite investor interest in LUNA and LUNC tokens.
Despite initial reactions, the price movement of both assets has shown some correlation with this initiative.
LUNC jumped 14% amid increasing volume.
Similarly, LUNC has shown a price increase, trading at $0.00009694 with a 24-hour trading volume of $172,117,904.
