Update on the Terra Luna scandal - how is the project doing?



Luna Foundation Guard CEO Do Kwon has released a proposal titled "Terra Ecosystem Revival Plan 2." In it, he has outlined an updated version of his original plan, which details the forking of the current Terra blockchain.


Do Kwon also took to Twitter to explain the logic behind the new proposal. In the first paragraph, he expressed that there are several parts of the Terra community that should be preserved:


Terra's app ecosystem contains hundreds of developers working on everything from defi to fungible labor markets, cutting-edge infrastructure and community experience

Terra Station has a large install base with more than a million users around the world.

Despite being in trouble, she is highly recognizable and has a name that almost everyone in the world has heard of.

He proposed keeping both blockchains, with the original blockchain being renamed Luna Classic ($LUNC) and another chain taking over the original ticker ($LUNA) based on a May 7 snapshot. 


What about the losses from UST decoupling?

Due to the timing chosen, it means that anyone who sold UST after dollar decoupling will not be compensated for their losses. He has also suggested that his company, Terraform Labs, "prepares the core public infrastructure, wallets, genfile and release binary for launch." Also, the May 7th snapshot would mean that those who purchased Luna after May 7th would not receive an airdrop of new coins.


Is Do Kwon's recovery plan a dead end?

A key part of Terra's recovery plan is the removal of Do Kwon's Terraform Labs and full community adoption of blockchain.


But that aspect of the plan may have been brought forward. An old interview with Kwon that recently resurfaced shows the Terra founder talking about a "kill switch" for Terraform Labs (TFL).


The Terra Restoration proposal involves a hard fork to a new chain called Terra Version 2. Also, new LUNA tokens will be distributed to the holders of the old blockchain. 


In the 2021 interview, Kwon says that if Terraform Labs were in a position where it was no longer able to "serve the community in the best way possible," it would "pull the trigger" and all connections to the blockchain would cap.


With the responsibility for the Terra crash now falling squarely on Kwon and TFL, such a scenario could play out. Kwon had described the move as "protocol Armageddon."


“We pull the trigger and 24 hours later we're gone. We burn our entire fortune, cut all our ties, and that's it. That's just in case things develop a little quicker than we expect."


Speculation upon speculation

The interview has now fueled speculation that TFL's Terra crash was planned. However, Twitter user @FatManTerra, who dug up the interview, suggests that Kwon's comments may not have been malicious, but rather an additional decentralization measure.


However, other users pointed to reports that Kwon had moved TFL from South Korea to Singapore just a week before Terra collapsed. Kwon's suggestion to " hardfork " LUNA had also drawn criticism from several notable crypto voices, including Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao.


But so far, LUNA holders seem ok with Kwon's plan to fork the chain and airdrop new tokens. About 80% of voters support the proposal, while 14.8% voted against and vetoed it.


But here comes the next question mark. While Do Kwon posted the poll on Twitter, users posted screenshots of the poll saying that when it was released, over 11 million users already clicked "yes" and none clicked "no."


Some claim that bots were used to rig the election, but again this is pure speculation and one can only guess how the votes were collected when the "voting" began. We look forward to the further development of UST and LUNA and hope that investors who have lost money will still be compensated in some way.

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,...
