In a website announcement, crypto exchange Binance said it had completed the second round of distribution of Terra (LUNA) to eligible users who held Terra Classic (LUNC) and Terra Classic USD (USTC) during the snapshot.

Binance said it will distribute the remaining Terra (LUNA) in December 2022 or June 2023, as the case may be, according to the distribution plan.

The remaining distribution will take place over the next 24-48 months, the crypto exchange stated. In May, the old Terra network was renamed the Terra Classic network as the new Terra Chain was born.

This does not impact assets transferred with Wormhole or IBC, according to the announcement. It notes that bridging via Portal Bridge (Wormhole) and IBC will remain available on Terra Bridge Classic until May 30, 2023, upon which the Terra Bridge Classic interface will sunset.

The shuttle was pivotal in allowing for the bridging of assets to Ethereum, BSC and Harmony before other bridging options became available.
