๐๐ฅ THE HISTORY OF LUNA & TERRA CLASSIC (LUNC) ๐ฅ๐
This is one of the most important stories in crypto history โ a lesson written in billions ๐๐
๐ THE RISE (2018โ2021)
Terra was founded by Do Kwon with a bold vision:
๐ Create a decentralized, algorithmic stablecoin ecosystem.
LUNA was the backbone ๐๏ธ
It supported UST, an algorithmic stablecoin pegged to $1.
During the bull run:
๐ LUNA exploded from cents to $119 ATH
๐ Terra became one of the biggest DeFi ecosystems
๐ฐ Billions locked in Anchor, Mirror & other protocols
People believed this was the future of money ๐ง โจ
๐ฅ THE COLLAPSE (May 2022)
Then came the nightmare ๐จ
UST lost its $1 peg.
The algorithm tried to fix it by minting more LUNAโฆ
Which caused hyperinflation ๐๐
๐ LUNA supply went from millions to trillions
๐ฃ Price collapsed to near zero
๐ Billions wiped out in days
This event shook the entire crypto market.
Trust was broken. Confidence vanished.
๐ THE SPLIT: LUNA & LUNA CLASSIC (LUNC)
After the collapse:
๐น A new chain was created โ LUNA (new)
๐น The original chain became โ Terra Classic
๐น Original LUNA was renamed โ LUNC
Most big players leftโฆ
But the community didnโt ๐งฑ๐ช
๐ฅ THE REBIRTH ATTEMPT (2022โNow)
Terra Classic lives on through its community ๐งโ๐คโ๐ง
Key efforts include:
๐ฅ Token burn mechanisms
๐ฅ On-chain governance revival
๐ฅ Community-led development
๐ฅ Exchange-supported burns
LUNC became a symbol of:
โ What can go wrong
โ
What community resilience looks like
๐ง THE LESSON
LUNA/Terra taught crypto one brutal truth:
๐ High yield โ low risk
๐ Algorithms can fail
๐ Trust matters more than numbers
LUNC is no longer about hype.
Itโs about survival, rebuilding, and redemption ๐๏ธ
Love it or hate it โ
Terra changed crypto forever.
