Terra’s 2 Classic Coins Mysteriously Spike in Value, USTC Climbs 42% Higher in 24 Hours

Terra's 2 Classic Coins Mysteriously Spike in Value, USTC Climbs 42% Higher in 24 Hours

During the last 24 hours, crypto asset prices have improved as the global cryptocurrency market capitalization today has risen 1.9% to $1.07 trillion. Interestingly, the two so-called ‘defeated’ Terra blockchain tokens, now called terraclassicusd (USTC) and luna classic (LUNC), have seen significant gains. LUNC has climbed 8% higher during the past 24 hours and the once-stable coin USTC has jumped 42.2% higher against the U.S. dollar on Tuesday.

Following Do Kwon’s Recent Interview, Terra’s Classic Token See a Market Revival

For some mysterious reason, the two coins associated with Terra’s Classic network — terraclassicusd (USTC) and luna classic (LUNC) jumped significantly in value on Tuesday. The market moves follow Do Kwon’s recent interview with Coinage as the Terra co-founder spoke about the possibility of a mole within the Terra organization.

“If you’re asking me whether there was a mole at TFL, that’s probably, ‘Yes.’ Whether somebody tried to take advantage of that particular opportunity, I would say that the answer is, ‘Yes.’ But if those opportunities existed, then the blame is on the person that presented those vulnerabilities in the first place,” Kwon explained in his interview. “I, and I alone, am responsible for any weaknesses that could have been presented for a short seller to start to take profit.”

Four days later, both USTC and LUNC are seeing significant gains compared to a great number of coins within the crypto economy. LUNC’s price jumped 8% higher today, and USTC has increased 42.2% during the last 24 hours. USTC has seen $65,310,430 in global trading volume today, while LUNC has seen $60,659,973. In addition to the classic coin’s rising, the newest Terra Phoniex network blockchain asset LUNA is up 9.4% during the last day. Compared to the old classic coins, however, LUNA’s $32,205,006 is half the size of LUNC’s and USTC’s daily volume.

Classic Supporters Attempt to Manifest a $1 USTC, Late August Terra Classic Market Revival Follows the Failed Pump During the First Week of July

Statistics show that OKX is the most active USTC exchange today, while Kraken is the top LUNC trading platform in terms of activity. 80.16% of USTC trades are paired with BUSD, while 18.71% of USTC swaps are paired with tether (USDT). While USTC has climbed 42% in value, it is nowhere near close to reaching $1 as it currently is trading for $0.0307 per unit. While the reasons behind the Terra classic coin spikes are unknown, some crypto proponents are attempting to “manifest [a] $1 USTC.” Some Terra classic supporters have even discussed some sort of repeg concept for the once-stable coin USTC.

Luna classic supporters have a very active community, and they are arguably far more vocal on social media than LUNA 2.0 supporters. There’s a LUNC DAO and a great number of Terra classic-centric social media accounts supporting the old chain and old tokens. While the Terra classic supporters have been trying to rally support on Tuesday, the tokens LUNC and UST are still referred to as “scam coins” and the “ultimate Ponzi.” Furthermore, during the first week of July, the two Terra classic coins pumped significantly but prices fell flat shortly after the brief rise. At that time in July, USTC climbed 470% higher during a seven-day period.

Trustee Updates Mt Gox Creditors — Repayment Date and Exchange Still Unknown Last week speculation and rumors concerning the release of 140K bitcoin ( BTC ) from Mt Gox littered social media platforms and headlines. Bitcoin.com News covered the situation six days ago as a number of people and Mt Gox creditors called the rumors “ fake news .” During that same period of time, a bitcoin whale transferred 10,000 BTC to unknown wallets, and a 2018 annotation , heuristics, and clustering methods show the funds likely originated from the June 2011 Mt Gox hacks.

Fidelity Discusses Bitcoin as Portfolio Insurance — Could Soon Stand in ‘Stark Contrast’ to Path Fiat Currencies Take

Fidelity Digital Assets, a subsidiary of Fidelity Investments, says that bitcoin could be considered portfolio insurance. The firm notes that the cryptocurrency “may soon stand in stark contrast to the path that the rest of the world and fiat currencies may take — namely the path of increased supply, additional currency creation, and central bank balance sheet expansion.” Fidelity Says Bitcoin Could Be Portfolio Insurance Fidelity Digital Assets, a subsidiary of Fidelity Investments, recently published a research study titled “The Rising Dollar and Bitcoin.” The research outlines “how bitcoin could be considered portfolio insurance” as the rising dollar impacts global currency markets. “The strengthening U.S. dollar is wreaking havoc among other countries and may put pressure on the Federal Reserve to soon reverse its tightening monetary actions, something that has precedent based on 1985’s Plaza Accord,” Fidelity explained. In addition, “more monetary debasement may be needed to ...

Economists Discuss Russia, China Potentially Developing Gold-Backed Currency That Could Undermine US Dollar

Economists have weighed in on reports that China and Russia may be developing a new gold-backed currency that could undermine the U.S. dollar’s status as the world’s primary reserve currency. Russia and China May Be Developing Gold-Backed Currency Several experts have shared their views on Russia and China potentially creating a new gold-baked currency, Fox Business reported Saturday, emphasizing that China has been buying up huge quantities of gold while Russia was forced off the U.S. dollar due to sanctions imposed on the country following its invasion of Ukraine. The news outlet noted that some experts have cautioned that these moves, along with the closer relationship that has developed between Moscow and Beijing, point to the likelihood of China attempting to launch a gold-backed currency. However, neither Russia nor China has officially confirmed plans for such a currency. Craig Singleton, senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and a former U.S. diplomat,...
