December 8, 2025 | Tech, Operations, & Price Analysis
Binance is actively supporting the upcoming mandatory Terra (LUNA) network upgrade to version v2.18. To ensure the upgrade proceeds smoothly, Binance will temporarily suspend all deposits and withdrawals for LUNA tokens, starting today, December 8, 2025, at approximately 08:00 AM (UTC).
Technical Details of the Upgrade:
The v2.18 network upgrade, scheduled to be executed at block height 18,660,000, is primarily focused on critical security and stability improvements. A core component of this update is the burning of specific ASTRO tokens to address and rebalance Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) transfers that were affected by a prior network exploit.
Price and Market Reaction:
The news has injected short-term volatility into LUNA's price. The live price of Terra (LUNA) is currently around $0.144, experiencing a sharp intraday drop of approximately 26.01%. This highlights the market's sensitivity to technical operations and past vulnerabilities, but the upgrade itself is seen as a necessary, long-term positive for chain stability.
User Note: Trading of LUNA and LUNC tokens will remain active and unaffected by the deposit and withdrawal pause. Services will resume once the network stabilizes post-upgrade.
