The Terra Classic community has set its sights on increasing burn speeds for Terra Classic (LUNC) tokens as LUNC burn speeds dropped in December. In addition, crypto exchange Binance temporarily suspended the LUNC burn mechanism until March and reduced the burn rate to 50%, which also affected the LUNC burn rates.
Terra Classic validators and projects are aimed at increasing the burn rate
Terra Classic validators and projects aim to burn billions of Terra Classic (LUNC) tokens by 2023. To date, the community has burned over 37.30 LUNC tokens and deployed nearly 850 billion LUNC tokens.
Terracasino, in one tweet on January 9 revealed that it has sent more than 8 million LUNC tokens to the fire address. It burned 50 million LUNC tokens in less than 2 months. The project commits to burning billions of LUNC tokens.
In addition, validator LUNC DAO has burned over 4 million LUNC tokens in the past 24 hours. Two transactions with 2.235 million LUNc tokens each were sent to the fire address. LUNC DAO burned over 2 million Terra Classic tokens on January 2. This makes LUNC DAO the 5th largest burner of Terra Classic tokens.
Meanwhile, the community is voting on two major proposals. Proposal 11242 effectively stops LUNC recovering from burns and sets the community pool reward policy to zero. Also, proposal 11243 proposes to increase gas rates by 5 times and finance the community pool from fees.
Terra Classic core developer Edward Kim warns the community that the proposals could have a serious impact on community pool funding as the data shared in the proposal has a miscalculation. So it shows that additional fees are distributed. However, a solution could later ensure that much less goes to the communal pool.
