MEXC Announces Support for LUNC Upgrade and Burning of LUNC Spot Trading Fees

In support of the burn tax proposal from the Terra Classic (LUNC) community, MEXC will launch a time-limited burning event for spot trading fees for LUNC/USDT and LUNC/USDC - Starting September 3, 10:00 to September 17, 10:00 (UTC).

MEXC is the first CEX to support the LUNC upgrade and burning proposal.

The actual trading fee received will be proceeded by MEXC and will implement secondary market buybacks on a daily basis. Also, on a daily basis, MEXC will make arrangements to send LUNC tokens obtained from the secondary buy back of LUNC to the official burn address that is provided by Terra.

Currently, MEXC ranks second for the LUNC burning, with 581,983,415.1228 LUNC buy back.

What is Terra Protocol?

Terra is a blockchain protocol that uses fiat-pegged stablecoins to power price-stable global payment systems. According to its white paper, Terra combines the price stability and wide adoption of fiat currencies with the censorship-resistance of Bitcoin (BTC) and offers fast and affordable settlements.

Developments on Terra began in January 2018, and its official launch of its mainnet in April 2019. As of September 2021, Terra offers stablecoins pegged to the U.S. dollar, South Korean won, Mongolian tugrik and the International Monetary Fund's Special Drawing Rights basket of currencies — and intends to roll out additional options.

Rebranding of Terra

After the collapse of the stablecoin of the Terra ecosystem, the LUNA community has proposed various methods to rescue the Terra ecosystem. Among them, the passage of Proposal 1623 brought substantial progress to rescue the Terra ecosystem by creating a brand new chain and began to airdrop its new tokens to the users of the Terra ecosystem.

On May 28, 2022, the genesis block of the new chain was launched to conduct future transactions under the name Terra (LUNA), and the original Terra Chain was rebranded as Terra Classic. The original native token LUNA has also been renamed as LUNA Classic (LUNC). After the tax proposal was released, the price of LUNC increased by 100%.
