Terra Luna Classic (LUNC) and USTC prices jumped nearly 15% and 12% in a week, sparking a discussion in the LUNC community. The move comes as the total supply of USTC fell as part of an 800 million USTC burn planned by the community. However, some community members revealed that the proposal to burn USTC is still under governance voting, raising concerns about the supply reduction.

Earlier, the Terra classic community voted to burn a whopping 800 million USTC tokens, amounting to 9% of the total supply.
