the $57 billion collapse that turned the 2022 bull run into a graveyard
how terra luna became cryptoâs biggest fraud the full breakdown of the disaster that shook crypto forever: > the golden time (dec 2021) âą do kwon's Luna token hit $116. âą terra was a $60B ecosystem and UST was the 'algorithmic stablecoin' âą anchor protocol offered 20% yield with $15 billion locked inside. âą everyone who questioned luna was muted and called 'haters.'
> the first crack (may 7, 2022) âą someone dumps $350M UST on curve finance. âą UST drops from $1.00 to $0.985. âą by midnight, $375 million withdrawn from anchor in hours. âą do kwon tweeted: 'stay calm. we have this under control "but he didn't.
> the death spiral (may 8-9) âą as UST crashes, arbitrage traders swapped it for $LUNA at $1 each. âą the protocol has to mint new LUNA to cover the redemptions. âą supply exploded: 3 billion â 6.5 trillion LUNA in 72 hours. âą LUNA's price: $80 â $0.0001 âą luna foundation guard threw 80,000 $BTC BTC ($2.4B) to stabilize the peg.
> the contagion (may 9-10) âą three arrows capital (3AC) had massively leveraged bets on luna. âą when Luna crashed, 3AC lost $200M instantly. âą 3AC defaulted on $670M in loans to voyager digital. âą voyager halted withdrawals âą celsius network ($15B TVL) froze deposits and blockFi collapsed next.
> the rekconing (may 13) âą $40-57B evaporated in 5 days. âą 280k south korean investors lost life savings and some took their own lives. âą do kwon disappeared and later arrested in montenegro. âą pleaded guilty to fraud and admitted: It was always a ponzi scheme.
> the lesson âą this wasn't a market crash, It was a design flaw. âą algorithmic stablecoins don't work without massive collateral backing or unsustainable yields. âą terra promised 20% forever and paid with new $LUNA printed from thin air. âą when demand stopped, the scheme collapsed.
the tragic part is that developers, mathematicians and regulators warned this. but a charismatic founder + cult-like community + astronomical returns = nobody listens the next terra is being built right now. will you fall for it?
Astroport has nothing to do with Luna Classic; that's related to Luna 2.0. Back then, it was updated so that the old team could no longer use those coins to influence the market.

Is this the update that will make LUNC drop even lower?
It's the update that will allow Terra 2.0 to use their Luna Classic and USTC as exit liquidity and destroy Luna Classic through bot trading for a while, yes.

$USTC November 13th will be very critical for all EU users who continue to trade try/lunc and luna/try ustc/try because the platform will not provide USDC trading pairs for the entire community. You will all lack liquidity.
$LUNC Don't you find it manipulative that certain investors are prevented from trading due to the missing USD/DC trading pair? It was possible to collect fees for years, but providing liquidity providers seems impossible, except apparently for new coins. But where there's a community, this isn't done.
They should disclose their donation; otherwise, it's just a scam to buy bitcoins.

đ $GIGGLE is a meme-coin with a twist: born as a charity-driven token tied to the Giggle Academy education initiative, it channels a 5% fee on trades into donations.
Some upside:
âą Strong narrative of âmemes + missionâ which can capture attention.
âą Preview of real-world utility: millions donated within hours of launch.
But big caveats:
âą The official education platform says it did not issue the token and has no affiliations with it, raising questions of legitimacy.
âą As a meme coin, volatility is extremely high and long-term sustainability is uncertain.
$BNB
If youâre considering $GIGGLE, ask: Will the donation model hold up? Will the narrative lock in long-term adoption beyond hype? And crucially: how will token holders be protected if utility fails to materialize?đ€
Arbitrage exit: Long-term investors will not benefit, as the first movers (mostly bots) will gain excessive profits.
Public perception: This can be interpreted as a "release of a large amount of USTC/LUNC" and although these coins were initially intended to be released into the market, it may be perceived negatively. "Locking" occurred as a side effect of a core upgrade.
Timing: Liquidity providers in affected and currently non-operational pools cannot exit early before the patch is applied.
Example: Some may argue that this sets a precedent for L1 patches to support dApps. However, the disruption was initially caused by an L1 upgrade, and the correction was small and limited.

This means that after the crash caused by the new community, this update prevented Terra 2.0 developers from using these coins and dumping them on the market because they abandoned Luna Classic. However, they have now decided not to burn these coins but to use them on the market as exit liquidity through bots that will massively influence the market and negatively impact Luna Classic. No long-term investor will profit, only the old developers from Terra, Astroport, etc., which the Luna Classic community has absolutely nothing to do with anymore.
$LUNC In crypto, it's important to understand algorithms: how they work, how they react, how they are used, and why they exist. This definitely helps newcomers understand how crypto functions.
