After criticism – Binance now wants to burn all trading fees for LUNC

 


To help the community of the failed blockchain project revitalize the former cryptocurrency Terra (LUNA) as Terra LUNA Classic (LUNC), leading crypto exchange Binance last week proposed a combustion mechanism, albeit prompting very mixed reactions from the larger crypto community has pulled.


For example, on Sept. 23, Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao suggested that his platform could impose an optional 1.2% “tax” on trading with LUNC. This 1.2% would be levied on all trades on LUNC, however, this measure would only take effect once the users, who account for at least 50% of the total cryptocurrency trading volume on Binance, agree to it.


A few days later , Zhao admitted that this plan has flaws. For this reason, Binance has again released a revised version . This states that the crypto exchange will burn any trading fees incurred from trading LUNC/BUSD and LUNC/USDT. These funds would then be used to purchase LUNC and move it to the project's official burning wallet.


With this measure, the Binance CEO wants to make a contribution to keeping the supply of LUNC under control and creating "fair" framework conditions for all users.


After the infamous collapse of Terra, some LUNA investors were desperately looking for ways to save their cryptocurrency (and thus their invested funds). Some crypto exchanges have already supported these efforts via airdrops, LUNC listing, buybacks, and burns. The aforementioned 1.2% tax was later brought into play, which at least caused the share price to shoot up by a whopping 250% on September 9th.


So while investors can hope for a conciliatory end, the Terra founder is up to his neck in water because his actions are said to have violated South Korean law in several respects. Accordingly , on September 14 , a court in the country issued arrest warrants for Do Kwon and five other Terraform Labs employees . In addition, on September 26, Interpol published a so-called "Red Alert" with which Kwon is now being sought by police authorities around the world.

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin...

Phishing attack on popular crypto sites tries to empty wallets

  Several major crypto sites such as Etherscan, CoinGecko, DeFi Pulse, and others report malicious pop-ups scammers use to try to trick users into connecting their MetaMask wallets. The phishing attack came from a domain displaying the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) logo. "We are investigating the root cause of this attack to fix the threat as soon as possible," CoinGecko founder Bobby Ong tweeted. The phishing attack appears to have been triggered by a malicious ad script from Coinzilla, a crypto ad network, according to CoinGecko. Etherscan also advises its users not to confirm any transactions that may appear on the website. The attackers attempted to use the hype around the “bored monkeys” non-fungible tokens (NFT) to gain access to the cryptocurrencies of unsuspecting website visitors. Although the websites affected by the scam attempt have reacted in the last few hours and deactivated the advertising pop-up, it is still recommended not to connect your MetaMask wallet to ne...

Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs stolen through phishing on Instagram

  Bored Ape Yacht Club ( BAYC ) developers announced on Monday that hackers have hijacked the official Instagram page of the popular NFT collection and posted links to a fake airdrop. Crypto enthusiasts who connected their MetaMask wallet to the rogue website subsequently had their Ape NFTs stolen. Apparently, the attack was planned to coincide with the one-year anniversary of the BAYC collection. This increased the "perceived credibility" of the phishing link. About 100 NFTs are said to have been stolen in the phishing attack . According to CoinGecko data , the minimum price for a BAYC NFT is 139 Ether ( ETH ) or $400,726. So if reports are correct, over $40 million worth of NFTs were stolen in the attack. These numbers are only the lowest estimate, however, as they are based on the lowest price.  At the time of writing, it was still unclear how the hackers gained access to BAYC's official Instagram account. Social media users have pointed out the importance of two-fact...
