Terra Community burns LUNA for 4.5 billion US dollars



USD 4.5 billion in Luna tokens: The Terra community has voted for a major cut in the token supply that could prove to be a catalyst for LUNA performance.

Coin-Burning is not uncommon in the crypto-Space. Regardless of whether it happens at regular intervals, as with Binance, or with every transaction, as with Ethereum, the amount in circulation is reduced each time. There is no need for a canceled business degree for this: If the amount in circulation decreases while demand remains the same or increases, the courses increase. LUNA investors can also speculate on this after broad approval for the coin burn on Tuesday .


LUNA shortage

A total of 88.7 million LUNA tokens at the current equivalent of USD 4.5 billion will be removed from the community pool and, conversely, from the amount in circulation over the next two weeks. This resulted in the vote of the Terra Community, which approved proposals 133 and 134. On Tuesday, 520,000 LUNA were destroyed for the first time.


The upgrade of the Terra-Mainnet Columbus-5 carried out in September also has a deflationary, i.e. shortening, effect on the LUNA stocks. Since then, the native tokens that Terra uses to stabilize the price of stablecoins no longer flow into the community pool, but are also burned. In the long term, this could trigger a spiral in value. The higher the demand for the stablecoin UST, the more LUNA it takes to push the rate down to one US dollar, which exponentially destroys more LUNA and boosts the token rate accordingly.

How does Terra work?

Terra is a stablecoin ecosystem that algorithmically creates value stability. Unlike Tether's largest stablecoin USDT, Terra does not cover the coins with fiat deposits, but with LUNA. The supply of the respective stablecoins is dynamic and adapts to demand in order to compensate for exchange rate fluctuations. If the demand rises or falls, i.e. the supply decreases or increases, the algorithm either burns LUNA and produces UST in the equivalent or burns UST and produces LUNA.

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...

Cardano: This is the vision that founder Charles Hoskinson has

  The Altcoin Cardano has tended to decline in recent weeks.  The Alonzo upgrade was supposed to bring improvements, but it soon turned out to be a disappointment.  Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson presented his vision for the cyber motto in a live Twitter video. • Cardano in the last few months under pressure • Charles Hoskinson explains his Cardano vision via Twitter • Security and privacy at the center The cryptocurrency  Cardano  has had a difficult few months.  While founder Charles Hoskinson's cyber motto has had a strong run in 2021, it has been steadily downhill in recent months.  Cardano is faced with some difficulties.  The so-called Alonzo upgrade went live in mid-September, for which crypto fans had high hopes, but which soon turned out to be a disappointment.  The upgrade should make it possible to use smart contracts on the cryptocurrency as well.  It soon turned out, however, that although these were entered into Cardano,...
