Terra Classic (LUNC) Staked Reaches 900 Bln As Utility Returns, Price Jumps 10%

Total Terra Classic (LUNC) tokens staked on the network reaches over 900 billion as utility slowly returns to the blockchain. After much effort from the Terra Classic community and developer groups, LUNC staking has increased with projects building on chain and investors staking with validators.

Terra Classic (LUNC) Tokens Staked Reaches Over 13% Again

Neblio blockchain platform in a tweet on January 19 announced launching a new Neblio mobile wallet. It will have NEBL staking support and cross-staking campaigns. It will enable users to earn NEBL by staking $LUNC and get LUNC by staking NEBL.

While the Terra Classic community is positive about the development, association with Terra Rebels caused the community to become uninterested in using or staking with Neblio mobile wallet.

The Terra Classic community reminded Terra Rebels about returning $150K worth of community funds misappropriated by some members. Notable developers such as Edward Kim, Tobias “Zaradar” Anderson, and Duncan left the developer group Terra Rebels group. Other members were removed from the group and the funds were distributed among just 12 members.

This caused massive drops in LUNC prices and staked LUNC tokens. The total staked LUNC dropped from over 900 billion to 850 billion in December. On January 19, the LUNC supply ratio again jumped over 13% and total LUNC tokens staked reached nearly 900 billion.

The reopening of the IBC channels is also bringing back utility to the Terra Classic chain, with a number of projects building on the blockchain. Moreover, LUNC is supported on TFL’s new interchain Station having multiple blockchains.

LUNC Price Jumps 10%

Terra Classic (LUNC) price increased nearly 10% in the last 24 hours, with the price currently trading at $0.0001755. The 24-hour low and high are $0.000158 and $0.0001773, respectively. Meanwhile, the trading volume has increased by 37% in the last 24 hours, indicating a slight interest from traders.

  • Trump: Data Centers May Be More Important Than Oil

    August 7 news, U.S. President Trump said in an interview with Punchbowl News, "I saw the other day that Texas seems to be opposed to building data centers. I think that's a mistake. I'm not taking a position—I just think it's a mistake, because there are other communities that want to build data centers. When a community is willing to accept data centers, it means a lot of money will flow into that community. I don't think they're ugly. Some of the data centers I've seen are the most incredible buildings I've ever seen. They are very important to the economy. If Texas says no to data centers, that's a mistake, because data centers may be more important than oil."

  • Trump to Meet with Mining Executives

    On August 7, according to CCTV International News, US President Trump will convene executives from some of the world's largest mining companies at the US State Department on August 7 local time, in an effort to take action to 'secure critical mineral supplies for the US and its allies.' Reuters reported that the US urgently needs critical minerals to replenish weapons inventories depleted during the war against Iran. During the more than five-month war with Iran, the US military expended large quantities of precision-guided missiles and air defense interceptors. US defense officials and lawmakers have warned that given existing production capacity constraints, replenishing some stockpiles could take years—although the Trump administration has denied reports of a so-called 'severe shortage of ammunition stockpiles.' According to Pentagon officials and defense companies, supplies of minerals such as rare earths, tungsten, germanium, and scandium are essential for manufacturing precision-guided missiles, fighter jets, armored vehicles, infrared sensors, and other advanced weapons systems. Expected attendees include industry giants such as global mining giant Rio Tinto Group, Australia's BHP, US Freeport-McMoRan, US Mountain Pass Materials, US Rare Earths, US Energy Fuels, and Canada's Metals Company. According to sources, the Trump administration plans to announce multiple deals and memorandums of understanding.
