Binance, the largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has burned an additional 1.4 billion Terra Luna Classic (LUNC) tokens. This action brings the total amount of LUNC burned by Binance to more than 59 billion tokens. The Terra Luna Classic community has collectively burned over 113 billion LUNC tokens so far.
Why Is Binance Burning LUNC Tokens?
The exchange recently transferred 56 billion LUNC tokens to a burn address as part of its ongoing LUNC burn initiative. These activities were conducted shortly after the monthly LUNC burn, following a pattern seen in previous months. Despite these efforts, the exact cause behind the considerable drop in value during these burn events remains uncertain.
What Are the Price Trends for LUNC and USTC?
On May 1, Binance moved 4.17 billion LUNC tokens to the burn address. To date, around 59.07 billion LUNC tokens have been burned from trading fees associated with LUNC spot and margin trading pairs. In April alone, Binance incinerated over 100,000 LUNC tokens after burning 4.17 billion tokens.
The rise in cryptocurrency prices has sparked increased trading volumes. In March, trading volumes for LUNC exceeded $100 million daily, pushing prices above $0.0002. However, in April, volumes decreased to around $30 million, causing prices to drop to $0.0001.
