The possibility of Terra Classic (LUNC) reaching $1 is highly speculative and depends on numerous factors. Here's a breakdown of the key considerations:
1. Market Cap Requirement - LUNC's current circulating supply is ~5.8 trillion. - For LUNC to hit $1, its market cap would need to be $5.8 trillion. - For comparison: - Bitcoin's market cap (as of 2024) is ~$1.2 trillion. - The entire crypto market cap is ~$2.5 trillion. - This means LUNC would need to exceed 2x the entire crypto market's current value—which is unrealistic without massive supply reduction.
2. Supply Burn Mechanism - The LUNC community has implemented a 1.2% tax burn on transactions to reduce supply. - Even with aggressive burns, reaching a trillion-dollar market cap would take many years (if ever).
3. Adoption & Utility - LUNC needs real-world utility (DeFi, payments, etc.) to sustain demand. - Without major exchanges or institutional support, adoption remains limited.
4. Historical Context - LUNC (formerly LUNA) collapsed in May 2022 after the UST depeg. - Recovery to $0.01 would require a 100x from current levels (~$0.0001). - $1 would require a 10,000x—almost impossible without a miracle.
5. Realistic Price Predictions (2024-2025) - Optimistic Scenario: $0.001 (10x from current levels) if burns accelerate and crypto enters a bull run. - Pessimistic Scenario: $0.00005 or lower if interest fades and burns slow down.
- $1 is nearly impossible under current conditions. - A more realistic (but still ambitious) target is $0.01—which would require extreme supply reduction + massive hype. - If you're investing, treat LUNC as a high-risk gamble, not a long-term hold.
We as LUNC community are aiming to reduce the number of coins that are circulating in the market and are in public hands and we are looking for burning LUNC coin as much as we can. Although Binance thankfully is currently contributing to help the community with burning 50% of the trading fees from LUNC trading in the exchange. However, this method is going to
